Amanda K. Reilly, LMHC, CCHT
I am a leading anxiety specialist, known for helping highly functional, thoughtful people find lasting relief from chronic anxiety, overthinking, and nervous system overwhelm. If you feel stuck in cycles of worry, self-doubt, or physical tension, sessions with me are designed to change that—practically and sustainably.
I specialize in treating anxiety by working with both the mind and the body. Insight alone often isn’t enough; my approach integrates evidence-based cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) with somatic therapy, allowing you to address intrusive thoughts, avoidance behaviors, and the physiological stress responses that keep anxiety alive—and to interrupt these patterns in real time. The result is increased calm, confidence, and emotional flexibility in your relationships and daily life.
I am a licensed mental health clinician with diagnostic privilege in the state of New York. I earned my Master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling from NYU and my undergraduate degree in Holistic Psychology from Lesley University. I bring over eight years of clinical experience as a hypnotherapist, including specialized work in ketamine therapy integration and supporting patients in optimizing life with ADHD at Hudson Medical in the West Village, as well as facilitating creativity and wellness workshops with Soho House New York. I am yoga-certified and have trained in consciousness-based approaches, contributing to a depth-oriented yet grounded understanding of anxiety, trauma, and mind-body regulation.
As an artist and a new mother, I also bring a nuanced understanding to supporting people navigating existential and perinatal anxiety, as well as the pressures of modern parenthood.
If you’re looking for therapy that is deeply attuned to helping you get where you want to be, I would be glad to help.
IN THERAPY, WE WORK WITH YOUR WHOLE PSYCHE
PAST
Trace the roots—the myths, wounds, & defenses that shaped how you move through the world.
PRESENT
Bring awareness to what’s alive—your thoughts, patterns, projections, and the energy of this moment.
FUTURE
Listen for what’s calling—your potential, purpose, and the self that wants to unfold.
