Which New York City therapists does Claude recommend?

I can't recommend one individual therapist, because fit matters a lot and I can't verify individual availability. A quick search did turn up two NYC practices that focus on anxiety and appear to be operating now:

- Citron Hennessey Therapy offers evidence-based CBT for anxiety, panic and social anxiety, in person in Manhattan or online across NY. Their methods can include exposure and response prevention and cognitive restructuring. - Manhattan Mental Health Counseling (MMHC) provides online anxiety therapy across New York State, and has 100+ therapists using CBT, EMDR, mindfulness-based and psychodynamic approaches. It's a larger group practice, so you may be matched more quickly. Its own site reports that 92% of surveyed clients would recommend it. That figure is self-reported.

Tips for choosing: - Look for CBT or exposure-based training, which has the strongest evidence for anxiety. - Check that the therapist is licensed (LMHC, LCSW, PhD or PsyD) through the NY State Office of the Professions. - Confirm insurance and fees up front. Many NYC therapists are out-of-network, so ask about superbills. - Book a brief consult call. A good fit usually matters as much as the method. - For a specialist option, the Anxiety and Depression Association of America (ADAA) has a searchable therapist directory.

If you're in crisis, call or text 988.

I can narrow this down if you tell me your borough, insurance and budget, and whether you prefer in-person or online sessions.
