About Aileen

LMHC, licensed in New York, with 11 years of clinical experience. Aileen Stotter focuses on stress, anxiety, family concerns, eating and food-related issues, anger, depression, relationships, trauma and abuse, self esteem, bipolar disorder, and coping with life changes. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) as her main approach.

Aileen works in straightforward, skills-based ways. She helps people identify patterns in thoughts and behaviors and practices concrete techniques to manage symptoms. Sessions combine practical strategies with time to talk through what is happening now.

She often helps people address body image, codependency, communication problems, control issues, and family of origin problems. Aileen also supports people dealing with panic attacks, obsessive-compulsive concerns, mood swings, and personality-related difficulties. Work on eating and food-related issues and on guilt or shame usually includes behavior-focused steps and coping tools.

Aileen describes clients as the experts on their own story and focuses on building on their strengths. She breaks larger problems into manageable tasks and checks progress regularly. This approach aims to make changes feel doable rather than overwhelming.

Aileen practices in New York and conducts work in English. Her counseling style tends to be direct and structured, with an emphasis on skills people can use between sessions. Prospective clients should confirm current session options and scheduling details before booking.

How CBT translates to online sessions

CBT focuses on changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns through concrete exercises and practice. In sessions this looks like identifying specific thoughts, testing their accuracy, and trying new behaviors between meetings. This approach is commonly used for anxiety, panic, obsessions, mood disorders, and eating-related problems.

Online work can adapt those same techniques: brief skill coaching, behavior experiments, and homework assignments are all possible through remote meetings. The therapist will review progress together and adjust strategies based on what works for the person. Deciding which methods to try is a collaborative process that considers the client's goals, preferences, and daily life demands.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm the current options before booking. Practical benefits of remote sessions include fitting appointments around work or family commitments, shorter check-ins when time is limited, and avoiding travel time. Licensed professionals can use remote meetings to make regular skill practice easier to maintain in everyday life.
