About me

Hi,
My Name is Elie and am a Clinical Social Worker licensed in New York. I enjoy working with people and providing therapy and support that empowers my clients to see that change can create new opportunities for a happier life. My goal is to assist my clients in managing a variety of concerns, and help them transition through life’s challenges and help them be successful in their goals.

I have over 9 years of experience providing individual, group, and family counseling. I have worked within a multitude of settings, helping people manage challenges in their homes, schools, and healthcare facilities. I have a considerable amount of experience with clients with a broad range of concerns including, motivation, life balance, career challenges/transition, relationships, communication, anxiety, depression, and chronic / terminal health challenges (i.e. cancer, dialysis). I have worked with couples individually and together to help them overcome challenges in their relationships. Communication in a respectful manner is key to rebuilding and strengthening relationships and I would like to help you with your relationship challenges. Having considerable experience working with a culturally diverse client base allows me the ability to be more sensitive to cultural differences; I want to make you feel that you are being listened to.

It is important to me to establish a safe, nonjudgmental environment, and show respect to all clients. The methods that guide my practice are a combination of cognitive-behavioral, solution-focused, psychodynamic, and motivational interviewing therapies. I am reflective and flexible in my style, to stay responsive to my clients. Each person has their own way of relating, and I do my best to create a plan with my clients that works for them.

I try to check my messages a least once a day and try to return all messages within 24hrs M-F unless I am on vacation or it is a holiday for me.

Exploring therapy was a huge step! Should you decide to move forward, I am here to assist you with overcoming obstacles standing in your way of success.

Reviews

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Elie Berdy . We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Regain might be different.

Ellie was a great couples therapist! This was our first time going to couples therapy. We learned to respect each other's inherent differences and techniques to deescalate and resolve arguments. We are so appreciative of Ellie since we're healthier and stronger than ever.

Would absolutely recommend Elie. He helped us get out of a rut and back on track. He helped us figure out how to listen more consciously to each other. 10/10
