About Myrna

Myrna Diptee is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in New York with 23 years of experience. She works with people who face stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, career difficulties, and coping with life changes. Her profile also lists social anxiety and phobia among the concerns she addresses.

Myrna uses practical conversation to help people sort through what feels overwhelming. Sessions focus on identifying small, manageable steps that fit into everyday life. She pays attention to how past relationships and attachment patterns affect current stress and confidence.

Her background includes long-term clinical work supporting people through loss, major life transitions, and career shifts. She often helps clients who feel isolated or stuck to clarify goals and try new ways of coping. Discussion may include how seasonal mood changes or past trauma influence daily function.

Myrna adapts the pace of work to each person and checks in about what is or is not helping. She aims to make sessions straightforward so people can try out changes between meetings. Practical tools and clearer next steps are common outcomes of this approach.

She works in English and practices in New York as an LCSW. Prospective clients are asked to use the site’s matching process to schedule a first session and to confirm current session options before booking.

How evidence-based approaches translate to online sessions

Two common evidence-based techniques Myrna uses are focused skill-building and narrative work. Focused skill-building teaches specific strategies for managing anxiety and stress, such as pacing social exposure or practicing short grounding exercises. Narrative work helps people organize and make sense of losses, attachment patterns, and life changes by talking through the story of what's happened and what matters now.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and try methods that fit those aims. If a technique does not feel helpful, she adjusts the plan and tries alternatives together with the client.

Confirm the exact session formats before booking, as current options are shown during the sign-up process. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and reduce travel time. They also allow shorter check-ins when needed and options that may not require being on camera, which can help when a quiet setup or less screen time is preferable.
