About Edward

Edward Currier is a New York licensed mental health counselor who offers practical support for people facing stress, anxiety, grief, anger, depression, and other life challenges.

Background and approach

With 19 years of professional experience, he approaches therapy from the belief that each person is the expert on their own story and already carries strengths that can be used to move through hardship. He frames therapy as a collaborative effort aimed at clearer thinking, healthier habits, and more satisfying daily functioning.

Edward integrates evidence-informed strategies, including cognitive behavioral techniques and mindfulness practices, alongside client-centered and psychodynamic perspectives when they fit a client's needs. He has worked with individuals contending with mood and impulse concerns, relationship and intimacy issues, addictions, neurodiversity, and a range of trauma-related struggles.

His clinical focus also encompasses less commonly listed concerns such as obsessive-compulsive patterns, personality-related difficulties, and coping with life transitions. Sessions emphasize respect for the client’s lived experience while working toward practical tools and insight.

Edward offers multiple online session formats to match different schedules and preferences, guiding each client toward approaches that feel useful and sustainable.

Approaches and online care that fit your life

Edward often uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help clients identify unhelpful thought patterns and develop practical coping strategies for anxiety, depression, and compulsive behaviors. He also draws on client-centered therapy, which emphasizes empathetic listening and collaboration so clients can explore goals and build on their existing strengths. Mindfulness techniques are incorporated to support present-moment awareness and stress reduction when those practices align with a client’s needs, particularly for emotional regulation and coping with grief.

Finding the right combination of methods is considered part of the therapeutic process. Edward works collaboratively with each person to determine which approaches best match their goals, preferences, and life circumstances, adjusting tactics as progress and needs evolve. The aim is to create a plan that feels understandable and useful rather than fixed from the start.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to provide flexibility around work, family, and mobility constraints. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care, try different session rhythms, and access consistent support from licensed professionals without rearranging an entire day.
