About Giuseppe
Dr. Giuseppe Sottile is a New York psychologist who focuses on practical, person-centered care. He guides people through stress, anxiety, and parenting concerns using straightforward methods.
He brings 15 years of clinical experience to each meeting and offers sessions in English and Italian. He favors approaches that help people notice patterns and try different behaviors. In sessions he uses client-centered listening to understand what matters most to the person.
He also draws on cognitive behavioral tools to break down unhelpful thoughts and build new coping skills.
Background and approach
Dr. Sottile has supported people facing career transitions, grief, addiction struggles, and the fallout of trauma. He also addresses challenges around self-esteem, anger, and life changes.
His work includes attention to attachment and abandonment concerns, caregiver stress, and issues that arise from chronic illness or disability. People often come for help with communication problems, commitment doubts, or navigating nontraditional sexual identities and communities. He also addresses blended family dynamics, adoption and foster care questions, and body image or cancer-related distress.
Sessions aim to produce concrete steps for everyday life. He emphasizes collaboration and clear goals. New clients complete a short questionnaire to match with his practice, then schedule video, phone, chat, or messaging sessions based on what suits them.
Fees vary by location and a subscription model is used that can be canceled at any time.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to what matters most to the person. The therapist offers empathy and reflection to help clients clarify goals and make choices about change.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It uses practical exercises and short homework tasks to reduce anxiety, manage stress, and address unhelpful thinking patterns.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes skill-building in emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. These skills often help with anger, intense emotions, and relationship strain.
Finding the right approach is a shared process. The therapist works with each person to find techniques that match their goals, temperament, and day-to-day demands. Plans are reviewed and adjusted as progress is made so sessions stay useful and relevant.
Online sessions are offered by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video calls enable face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth or camera use is difficult. Live chat and messaging allow brief check-ins, written reflection, and flexible timing for people with busy schedules. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or other routines.
