About Giuseppe
Dr. Giuseppe Sottile uses a client-centered approach to help people manage stress, anxiety, and major life changes. He is a New York psychologist with 15 years of experience. He focuses on practical steps people can take to feel steadier and more confident.
He spends time listening to the story behind a concern and then helps the person set clear, realistic goals. Sessions often include skills practice for anxiety, strategies for coping with grief, and ways to improve communication at work or in relationships. He also supports people exploring sexual identity and LGBT-related concerns.
His work draws on several methods, including cognitive behavioral techniques and mindfulness exercises. He uses dialectical behavior ideas when emotions feel overwhelming and motivational interviewing to help people find their own reasons for change. These tools are adapted to each person’s situation rather than applied the same way to everyone.
People who come for help with chronic illness, chronic pain, or caregiver stress find a practical focus on daily coping and pacing. He also addresses issues like body image, addiction, abandonment themes, and attachment difficulties. Dr. Sottile aims to help people build small routines that lead to steady improvements.
He practices in New York and offers services in English and Italian. Dr. Sottile describes his approach as inclusive and culturally aware, and he works with each person to develop a plan that fits their life and goals.

How his approaches translate to online care
Dr. Sottile often uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help people identify unhelpful thinking patterns and try new behaviors; this is useful for anxiety, panic, and workplace stress. He also uses mindfulness practices to teach simple attention and breathing exercises that reduce tension and improve day-to-day coping.Finding the right approach is part of the work. He will discuss goals and preferences and then try methods that fit the person’s needs. That decision is collaborative and can change over time as progress is made.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current session options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let someone use audio-only or video sessions depending on what suits their day and bandwidth. Talk with the therapist during scheduling to match a format to practical needs and goals.
