About John
LCPC and LMHC in New York with 15 years of clinical experience, John Asuncion helps people manage stress, anxiety, trauma, grief, depression, ADHD, and related concerns. He uses Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in his work. Sessions focus on practical problem-solving and clear, collaborative planning.
John begins by listening to what is most pressing for each person. He helps clients identify what they already do well. Then he and the client try small, concrete steps to reduce distress and build coping skills. Conversations stay focused on what can change now.
In sessions he combines client-centered listening with evidence-based tools from CBT. That means time is spent both understanding how someone sees their situation and practicing specific skills to shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. He emphasizes straightforward strategies for sleep, mood, and daily routines.
John's background includes inpatient and outpatient work across a range of needs. His experience covers trauma, substance use, identity and self-esteem concerns, crisis management, and interpersonal conflict. That clinical history informs how he assesses risk and plans follow-up steps.
People who work with him can expect practical goals and measurable steps between sessions. He uses a collaborative, problem-focused style and checks in on progress regularly. To begin, prospective clients complete a short questionnaire and schedule a first session through the site.

How his approaches shape online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the client's perspective. In practice this means the therapist listens closely and reflects what the client says to clarify priorities and strengths. This approach helps when someone needs to sort through feelings, identity questions, or relationship concerns.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Sessions include short exercises and homework to practice new skills, which can help with anxiety, depression, sleep, and routine changes.
Choosing an approach is collaborative. He will discuss what methods fit the client's goals and preferences. That decision can shift over time as progress and obstacles become clearer.
Confirm the exact session formats offered before booking, since the biography does not specify formats. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example, allowing shorter check-ins during a work break or avoiding travel time. It also makes regular skill practice simpler when weekly scheduling is a priority.
