David Petti, LCSW

Licensed Clinical Social Worker | Men's Issues, Depression, Life Transitions, Serious Mental Illness & Psychedelic-Assisted Therapy | Westchester County, NY

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Westchester County, New York, with over eight years of specialized experience in outpatient mental health treatment. I work primarily with adult men experiencing major life transitions — including divorce, job loss, career change, and identity shifts — who are struggling with depression and are ready to move forward.

My therapeutic style is structured, goal-directed, and recovery-oriented. I believe therapy should create real momentum, not just insight.
