Robert Lynch, Licensed Mental Health Counselor

Therapy is a space where healing begins through openness, curiosity, and a willingness to see yourself with new eyes. I strive to create an environment that feels safe, collaborative, and judgment-free, where humor and honesty coexist with growth and self-reflection. Drawing from Person-Centered Therapy (PCT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and mindfulness-based approaches, I help you develop a deeper awareness of the thoughts, beliefs, and experiences that shape how you move through the world. My style blends insight with practicality, helping you build emotional awareness while learning tools you can use daily. I have experience working with adults and adolescents navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, and major life transitions. My work is informed by research on spirituality and Buddhist concepts, exploring how meaning-making and self-compassion can support long-term wellbeing. I understand that starting therapy can feel daunting, but I believe that real change begins with small, consistent steps toward self-understanding. My goal is to help you feel more grounded, confident, and empowered in your own growth both in and outside the therapy room.

I am available for in person sessions in New York City. I also provide telehealth sessions virtually across New York and Florida. On a personal note I have spent nearly a decade practicing jiu jitsu. I am a devoted Blink 182 fan. I am currently learning the art and patience of golf.
