Meet the Professional
Carol Pironi, LCSW
Westchester, NY Therapist
I am a licensed professional and have extensive experience assisting people with getting the help they need to create sustainable change towards a happier, healthier lifestyle. I take a compassionate, caring approach with realistic, honest insights and work collaboratively to address the psychological issues at hand.
Every patient is unique, and I apply a custom approach that works to meet your goals and address your issues.
Covid Update
Presently, I’m seeing patients in my office as well as continuing phone and teletherapy when preferred. Proof of vaccination is required for in-office appointments.
Couples therapy is necessary when there are difficulties between you two that you are not able to resolve on your own.
Frequent discussions, some episode that has left a trace of disappointment or distrust, communication problems… the reasons are very varied.
But broadly speaking, couples therapy is the best way to take care of your relationship when you run into some obstacle that you cannot overcome.
I require proof of vaccination for all clients and do not require clients to wear a face mask during the appointments. I have a HEPA Air Purifier appliance operating in the office and have face masks and hand sanitizer available as well.
In couples therapy, the therapist helps the individual partners to evaluate their relationship as well as to look at their individual contributions to conflicts within the relationship. Couples learn the art of negotiation as well as learn to develop creative solutions to ongoing problems. The therapist teaches new concepts that will assist you in collaborating around disagreements allowing you to improve the quality of your relationship.
The therapist will teach you how to identify a low-level fighting process and how to avoid escalating an argument, so it does not get out of hand. There is great focus on learning how the process of how you treat each other is often more important than the content of what you are quarreling about.

“Working with Carol has helped me strengthen my self concept and break down barriers that have held me back for years. I owe so much of my success to her.”
“I’ve been in therapy on and off for most of my life and this is the first time that I am making lasting progress. With Carol’s help, I am able to see the cause of my anxiety and depression.”
“Carol has given me the tools I need to fight against the negative thinking. As I continue to work on myself, life has become easier and less overwhelming. I am able to fully enjoy the good days and have all the support I need for the bad ones.”
