Angelamaria Riedi , LCSW

Angelamaria Riedi is a New York licensed social worker with six years of clinical experience who supports people across the lifespan, from adolescents to older adults. She holds an LCSW, which stands for Licensed Clinical Social Worker, and has worked with individuals facing depression, anxiety, crisis and trauma, and challenges related to substance use. Her background includes focused work with seniors and issues that arise during aging, as well as experience helping clients navigate workforce challenges and life transitions.

She brings a non-judgmental, open-minded, and caring style to her work and is LGBTQ+ friendly, having served people from diverse cultural backgrounds. Rather than relying on a single method, she draws from a variety of evidence-based techniques and tailors interventions to each person’s needs. She favors a strengths-based approach that highlights a person’s abilities and resources so they can build self-awareness, own their power, and move toward meaningful change.

Angelamaria aims to create a supportive space for growth, connection, and practical problem solving. Her practice emphasizes collaboration and respect as clients explore options for improving mood, managing stress and anxiety, addressing trauma, and working through relationship or family concerns.

Evidence-Based Support and Online Therapy Options

Angelamaria emphasizes a strengths-based approach that helps people identify their existing abilities and resources so they can build confidence, improve self-esteem, and take actionable steps toward change. This approach is often helpful for depression, low self-worth, and motivation-related concerns.

She also applies a range of evidence-based therapeutic techniques, selecting and adapting methods based on each person’s specific needs. Those tailored interventions are used to address issues such as anxiety, trauma-related symptoms, substance use concerns, and relationship or family challenges.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Angelamaria works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods fit their goals, values, and preferences. Together they assess progress and adjust strategies as needed to support meaningful outcomes.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, maintain continuity of care during transitions, and access licensed professionals from different locations while focusing on convenience and consistency.
