Michael Bellotti is a New York Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with 40 years of professional experience. He focuses on stress, anxiety, and addictions, and also addresses relationship and family concerns. He offers sessions in English and accepts international clients.
He helps people facing gambling and other addictive behaviors by talking through patterns and practical coping steps. He works with issues around intimacy, communication breakdowns, and control struggles. He also takes on problems that affect work life, social fears, and mood changes.
In sessions he aims to create an open space where thoughts and feelings can be discussed without judgment. He uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide conversations and suggest strategies people can try between meetings. The work tends to be straightforward and focused on specific problems rather than abstract theory.
Michael has experience supporting people through major life transitions such as divorce or midlife reevaluation. He addresses impulsivity, forgiveness questions, and dynamics linked to narcissistic behavior. He also helps with workplace stress and conflicts that spill into personal life.
Many clients come for short-term work on a single issue or for longer-term support with mood and anxiety. He asks about current goals early on and suggests practical steps to test what helps.

In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and to keep consistent appointments. They also allow for shorter check-ins when time is limited and make it possible to join from different locations without travel. Licensed professionals can tailor session length and focus to suit workday breaks, caregiving routines, or other practical constraints.
