About Mark
Mark Madry is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief, depression, and related concerns. He works with adults from New York and brings decades of clinical experience to each conversation. His approach is respectful, direct, and focused on what matters to the person in front of him.
Mark treats issues such as trauma and abuse, addictions, relationship and intimacy concerns, and parenting challenges. He also supports people dealing with career decisions, eating and body image struggles, and major life changes like divorce or caregiving stress.
Background and approach
His background includes long work in clinical settings where he saw a wide range of emotional and behavioral problems. In sessions he adapts methods to the person's needs rather than using a single fixed method. He draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to change unhelpful thinking and client-centered conversation to build trust.
Attachment-based ideas and emotionally focused tools guide work on relationships and intimacy. Mark emphasizes practical steps alongside understanding feelings. He helps clients set concrete goals and try small experiments between sessions.
Over time those changes aim to reduce distress and improve daily functioning. People who choose him often want steady, experienced guidance and clear options for coping. He aims to make therapy usable and relevant, not just a place to talk.
If you want a straightforward therapist with many years of practice, he may be a fit.

Therapeutic approaches and online care
Mark uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which helps people notice painful thoughts and still choose actions that match their values. ACT can be useful for anxiety, stress, and coping with life transitions. He also uses Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationship patterns affect current bonds and intimacy; this approach can help with trust, commitment issues, and relationship anxiety. Finally he draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns that maintain depression or anxiety.Finding the best approach is a collaborative process. He will talk with each person about goals and preferences, then try methods that fit those aims. The plan can be adjusted over time based on what helps most and what the person wants to work on.
Online therapy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging for flexibility. Video lets you keep visual connection for deeper emotional work. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and messaging or chat can fit a quick check-in or a shorter, focused conversation. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, caregiving, or travel while staying connected to a licensed professional.
