I’m Marnie Waxman - LCSW

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW-R) based in New York who works with adults and teens who are navigating life’s challenges — whether that’s anxiety, trauma, grief, or simply feeling stuck and wanting change. My approach is compassionate and collaborative, creating a space where you can feel supported, understood, and free to explore what matters most to you.

Alongside counseling, I also offer psychedelic integration, helping to integrate peak experiences into lasting growth for my patients.
