About Myrna
Myrna Diptee is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in New York with 23 years of professional experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, grief and loss, low self-esteem, career questions, and coping with life changes. Myrna lists life purpose among her focus areas and often supports people questioning what comes next after a change in work, relationships, or health.
Myrna keeps sessions practical and conversational. She listens for patterns that keep problems repeating and helps people try small changes to test what works. Conversations cover coping skills for anxiety and sadness, ways to rebuild confidence, and practical steps for career or life transitions.
Her background in social work means she has worked across many settings and with diverse populations. That experience informs a straightforward approach that includes addressing attachment and abandonment concerns, caregiver stress, blended family dynamics, and multicultural issues. She also helps people dealing with trauma responses, seasonal shifts in mood, and loneliness.
Myrna adapts the way she talks and plans work to the person in front of her. That can mean shorter goals for an initial period, pacing discussions about grief, or focusing on decision-making skills for midlife questions. She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide these choices.
People who are looking for help sorting out direction, repairing confidence, or managing ongoing stress will find a clinician who emphasizes practical steps and steady support. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How therapeutic approaches are used in online work
Evidence-based techniques often used in this practice include cognitive methods that help people spot and test unhelpful thinking patterns, and behavioral strategies that encourage small experiments to build confidence and reduce avoidance. Cognitive approaches are helpful for anxiety and low self-esteem because they target the thoughts that feed worry. Behavioral techniques help with motivation, social anxiety, and gradual return to activities that matter.Trauma-informed work is another common element; it focuses on stabilizing strong emotions, building coping skills, and pacing discussions about difficult memories. This approach is used when responses to loss, disaster, or past events interfere with daily life. The therapist and client decide together which methods to try and adjust them based on how the person responds and what feels most useful.
If you are considering remote sessions, confirm the session formats available before booking since formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, and remove travel time. It can also let someone choose audio-only when video feels like too much or pick a time that matches a break at work. The therapist will discuss practical options during the matching and scheduling steps.
