Colette Lettieri, LCSW

Colette Lettieri is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in New York who focuses on helping people find clearer direction and stronger self-worth. She emphasizes empowerment and supports clients as they make changes in career, relationships, and daily life. Colette aims to create a warm, open space where thoughts and feelings can be shared without judgment.

With ten years listed experience, she brings steady clinical work to conversations about motivation, self-esteem, and confidence. She also draws on background helping people navigate career difficulties and the strain that comes with caregiving roles.

Her approach centers on listening first and building goals together. Conversations often look at stories people tell about themselves and small practical steps to move forward. Sessions tend to be straightforward and focused on what the client wants to accomplish next.

Colette pays attention to communication problems, divorce and separation, and midlife concerns. She also works with people dealing with questions of life purpose and self-love, and with issues commonly faced by women.

People who value a collaborative, empowering style may find her helpful. She is listed in a Supporting carers-focused directory and understands the pressures caregivers can face. Prospective clients are encouraged to start by describing their main concerns and goals so sessions can be shaped to fit their needs.

Approaches that guide online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and empathy. The therapist follows the client's lead, helps people feel heard, and supports self-directed change. This approach can help with self-esteem, communication, and deciding what matters next.

Narrative Therapy looks at the stories people tell about their lives. Sessions examine those stories to uncover strengths and create new ways to view problems like relationship strain or midlife shifts. It is useful when someone wants to reframe their experience and regain a sense of agency.

Solution-Focused Therapy emphasizes small, practical steps toward clear goals. Rather than focusing on all past causes, it identifies what will look different when things are better and builds on existing resources. This is often helpful for career decisions, communication strategies, and short-term changes.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and together determine which methods fit best. That collaborative process can be adjusted as needs change over time.

The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people meet from different locations while keeping consistent scheduling and goal-focused work.
