Thomas Christou, LCSW Psychotherapist | 20+ Years of Experience Helping You Navigate Life’s Transitions with Insight and Compassion Are you feeling overwhelmed by anxiety or finding it difficult to navigate your relationships? Whether you are facing a major career shift, managing complex family dynamics, or carrying the weight of depression, you don’t have to process these challenges alone. My Clinical Philosophy With over two decades of experience in private practice, I provide a supportive, collaborative space for adults across the lifespan (ages 18–80). My clinical foundation is rooted in Psychodynamic and Existential therapy, which allows us to explore deep-seated patterns and find meaningful purpose. I firmly believe in "meeting the client where they are." I am an adaptive therapist; I tailor my modality to your unique personality and goals, ensuring our work together feels relevant and effective. Who I Work With I have a particular affinity for working with creative individuals—artists, musicians, and thinkers who view the world through a unique lens. My own appreciation for art, music, and the outdoors (I’m often found recharging at local museums or on a hiking trail) informs my deep respect for the human experience and the creative process of healing. Specializations: Anxiety & Depression: Finding relief from chronic stress and emotional weight. Relationships & Family: Navigating conflict and building healthier connections. Career Transitions: Support during professional pivots and workplace challenges. Creative Growth: Specialized support for the creative community. Practice Logistics: Location: Astoria, NY (In-person) & Virtual sessions available. Insurance: Most major insurance plans accepted.
