AAbout
About Michael
Michael Blady is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in New York with 36 years of professional experience. He works with people facing stress and anxiety, career challenges, executive and professional coaching needs, compassion fatigue, addictions, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, depression, and major life changes.
He keeps sessions straightforward and practical. Conversations focus on what is happening now and what changes are possible. He adapts his approach to each person's circumstances and priorities rather than using a single fixed method.
In sessions he listens for patterns that make daily life harder. He helps people clarify career goals, set manageable steps, and build routines that reduce overwhelm. For compassion fatigue he addresses burnout, boundaries, and restoring energy for work and caregiving roles.
When trauma and abuse are part of someone's history he works at a pace the person can handle, concentrating on coping skills, stabilizing symptoms, and improving relationships. For anxiety and depression he uses practical strategies to reduce symptoms and improve functioning in work and home life.
He describes therapy as a collaborative process where the client’s goals guide the plan. People who want direct, experienced guidance on work, relationships, and coping with life transitions often look to his background and long clinical experience.
Before booking, people should confirm current session options and any logistical details they need to plan their first visit.
BHow sessions work
Therapeutic approaches and how they fit online
Evidence-based therapeutic techniques often used to address anxiety and depression include cognitive-behavioral strategies. These focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with small behavioral experiments to reduce worry and improve day-to-day functioning.For trauma and compassion fatigue, stabilizing and skills-based approaches help people manage strong emotions and regulate stress responses. These methods teach concrete coping tools, grounding techniques, and boundary-setting practices that support returning to routine tasks and work roles.
Choosing the right approach is part of working together. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, symptoms, and preferences and then suggest approaches that match those needs. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made as progress and priorities become clearer.
Confirm current session formats before booking since specific online options are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and reduce commute time around work or family commitments. It can also make it simpler to continue care during life changes while keeping the focus on practical strategies and measurable steps.
