About Hilary

Hilary Mody is a licensed clinical social worker with 21 years of experience who works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, addictions, anger, intimacy concerns, family issues, coping with life changes, and ADHD.

Background and approach

She focuses on relationship work - either strengthening connections or supporting clients as they move forward after a relationship ends - and applies a thoughtful, client-led approach that centers each person’s goals and pace. Mody trained at NYU’s School of Clinical Social Work and integrates insight-oriented ideas about how past experiences shape present behaviors with practical, skills-based methods.

She encourages self-reflection so clients can recognize recurring patterns, understand defense strategies they may use to avoid distress, and build on their existing strengths. Her manner is laid-back and compassionate, emphasizing respect and collaboration while drawing on a mix of techniques to match each client’s needs.

Integrating Insight and Practical Strategies Online

Hilary employs Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Client-Centered Therapy as complementary ways to address emotional and relational concerns. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors, offering concrete tools for anxiety, stress, mood, and coping with life transitions. Client-Centered Therapy prioritizes the client’s perspective, providing a supportive, nonjudgmental space where personal insight and self-directed growth can emerge.

Finding the right mix of techniques is part of the collaborative process. She works with each person to determine which approach or combination best fits their goals, preferences, and day-to-day needs, adjusting methods over time as progress and priorities evolve.

Online appointments are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care across locations, accommodate busy routines, and choose the communication style that feels most helpful for skill practice, reflective work, or check-ins.
