About Me

Barbara Piehler, LCSW

Welcome! I am a NY & CT Licensed Psychotherapist offering Telehealth appointments in the comfort of your own space. I received my MSW from Fordham University and have experience working with individuals, groups, and families. My primary focus right now is working with adults (ages 18-64) who struggle with perfectionism, people-pleasing, and self-esteem, often feeling disconnected from their own needs while trying to meet the expectations of others.

15-Minute
Consultations

I know how important it is to connect with the right therapist. I offer free 15-minute consultations so I can learn a little more about you and your unique needs. This is also a great opportunity for you to ask any questions you may have.

Areas of Focus & Modalities

Anxiety

Perfectionism

Difficulty feeling secure in relationships

Self-esteem/Body Image

People Pleasing

My approach is relational, collaborative, and compassionate. I believe healing happens within a safe and supportive therapeutic relationship where you feel seen, understood, and accepted as you are. I draw from ACT and attachment theory to help you better understand your emotional patterns, strengthen your relationships, and build a more grounded and authentic connection with yourself.

Individual Therapy

Together, we’ll explore what’s keeping you stuck, clarify what truly matters to you, and develop tools to help you respond to life’s challenges with greater flexibility and self-compassion. My goal is to support you in moving away from self-criticism and burnout and toward a life that feels more aligned, meaningful, and fulfilling.

 

I strive to create a nurturing space where growth feels possible and where you can show up honestly; without judgment or pressure to be perfect.
