About Jaime
Jaime Pitingaro is a licensed social worker in New York who helps people facing depression, anxiety, stress, and related concerns. She brings eight years of clinical experience and aims to make the first step feel manageable for someone who is worried or uncertain. Conversations are meant to be respectful and compassionate so people can speak openly about what matters to them.
Jaime shapes sessions around each person’s needs rather than using a one-size-fits-all plan. She listens for what feels most urgent and then works with clients to set small, practical goals. That can mean practicing new coping skills, testing different ways of thinking about problems, or telling difficult parts of a life story to reduce their hold.
Her approach draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to address patterns of thought and behavior, Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills for emotion regulation, and Narrative Therapy to reframe personal stories. These methods are used to support issues like trauma, low self-esteem, grief, and mood swings among others.
Jaime also attends to identity-related concerns, including LGBT and gender dysphoria topics, and areas such as parenting stress, adoption and foster-care issues, and multicultural challenges. She describes treatment as a collaborative process where the client’s goals guide the work.
To begin, Jaime asks people to share what they hope will change and then tailors conversations and plans to those aims. The focus is on practical steps that fit into daily life and lead toward clearer coping and more manageable days.
