You deserve to live the life that is most meaningful to you.

As a successful person, you may feel like you “have it all” on paper but you still feel anxious, depressed or down on yourself. You may be succeeding at your “outer purpose” to make money, build a family, or get a bonus/promotion, but not fully meeting your “inner purpose” to feel at peace, loved, confident and self-assured.

Other times, you may feel totally lost in your head. You can’t stop thinking about work. You don’t know how to work efficiently to get enough sleep. You feel addicted to your phone, which is sort of entertaining but not fulfilling. You wish you were having more real fun and real relaxation. In these times, it’s hard to ask for help, but living with daily stress and confusion is also hard. 

Meet Dr. Regina Musicaro, Ph.D,
Clinical Psychologist

As a licensed clinical psychologist, I help people move beyond stress, anxiety, and trauma so they can feel more present, grounded, and fulfilled. My approach integrates science-backed therapies—Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and mindfulness-based interventions with a deep understanding of the human experience.

I also have specialized training in Supportive Parenting for Anxious Childhood Emotions (SPACE) from Yale School of Medicine’s Child Study Center, an evidence-based approach that helps parents guide their children through anxiety while strengthening your relationship.

Through our work together, you’ll be able to:

  • Build stronger coping strategies
  • Develop tools to manage stress and prevent burnout
  • Create meaningful behavioral changes, from improving sleep to being a more present with loved ones
  • Find practical, research-backed solutions to feel more confident and resilient

My style is warm, supportive, and direct with space for humor and honesty. Clients often describe me as engaged, thoughtful, and curious. Therapy should be a space where you feel comfortable being yourself, and free from judgment or pressure.

Even in difficult moments, there’s always a path forward. If you’re ready to take the next step, I’d love to support you. Schedule a complimentary phone consultation today.

TAKE THE NEXT STEP

Are you ready to grow and expand into the life you want?

MY THERAPY STYLE

The best part of the work is inspiring hope and seeing change. It is an honor to join with someone and work together to bring positive life changes.

Empathy comes from understanding our common humanity. I believe that empathy is cultivated when we see through the noise of life. This means seeing through our incessant thoughts, actions, and preoccupations to realize that there is a person underneath who is fundamentally good.

My superpower would be to fly because New York has too much traffic!
