About Kwasi
Kwasi Boaitey is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in New York with seven years of clinical experience. He works with stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, and coaching concerns. He also focuses on attachment issues, communication problems, blended family concerns, and mood-related difficulties.
His approach is straightforward and practical. Sessions involve talking through what feels stuck, identifying patterns, and trying new behaviors between meetings. He uses methods drawn from cognitive behavioral work, acceptance-based strategies, and emotion-focused work to help people manage strong feelings and make clearer choices.
Kwasi emphasizes collaboration. He treats the person in front of him as the expert on their life. Therapy sessions often combine problem-solving with emotional processing so that changes can feel useful in daily life.
He pays attention to how relationships and past attachment experiences shape current reactions. That can include work on communication, control issues, and feelings of isolation or shame. For people dealing with substance concerns, grief, or first-responder stress, he brings focused support aimed at practical coping.
Sessions aim to balance insight with skills. Clients can expect a mix of talking, skills practice, and real-world steps to test new approaches. To begin, readers are encouraged to use the platform tools to complete a short questionnaire and schedule an initial session.
BHow sessions work
Therapeutic approaches and working online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that reflect their values. It is useful for anxiety, stress, and making life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact; it teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns and manage mood or worry.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and daily life. That decision is revisited as progress is made and priorities shift.
Confirm the specific session formats before booking since the biography does not detail them. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce time spent traveling. Many people find virtual meetings help maintain continuity during stressful periods and make it simpler to practice new skills between sessions.
