Toby Faye Mailman

Toby Faye Mailman, LCSW, is a licensed clinical social worker based in New York with 25 years of professional experience. She completed her degree at New York University and has worked with individual adult clients since 2001. Her background includes practice with a range of cultural and identity backgrounds, and she attends to cultural norms as they relate to psychotherapy.

Her practice emphasizes the therapeutic relationship as a foundation for change. She draws on a mix of clinical approaches, selecting methods to match each person’s needs and goals. She sees regular weekly or bi-weekly sessions as an important part of the work and asks that scheduling changes be discussed in advance when possible.

Mailman addresses a broad set of concerns including stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, self esteem, depression, relationship and parenting challenges, grief, anger, career transitions, coping with life changes, and compassion fatigue. Additional focus areas include caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, multicultural concerns, immigration issues, and substance-related challenges. She works in both English and Spanish and maintains a New York practice.
