Professional statement

Bradley Levine is a licensed master social worker and psychotherapist in Manhattan, steps away from Bryant Park. He works with teens and adults looking to address anxiety, stress, obsessive thinking/behaviors, depression, and relational conflict. Bradley is passionate about working with the LGBTQ+ community, ambitious professionals, artists/entertainers, and the Jewish community. He offers in-person and remote sessions.

Bradley practices therapy using an interdisciplinary and person-centered approach. His work is grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which helps clients recognize and challenge patterns of maladaptive thoughts and behaviors. He uses Psychodynamic Theory to gain insight into archaic defense mechanisms inhibiting one's inner life and interpersonal relationships. Exposure Response Prevention (ERP) is used to help clients gain autonomy over obsessive thoughts and behaviors. Solution-Focused Brief Therapy is used to help clients implement the necessary changes to realize their goals.

Bradley's process is non-judgmental and strengths-based. He works to form a therapeutic relationship with each client that can withstand challenging one's perspectives and exploring intimate topics.

Bradley received his MSW from Fordham University's Graduate School of Social Service. He has worked at the Institute for Human Identity (IHI), the nation's first and longest-running non-profit dedicated to providing LGBTQ+ affirmative therapy. He has also worked as a crisis counselor on the National Sexual Assault Hotline. Outside of private practice, Bradley is a theatrical mental health consultant, bridging his passions for mental health and theatre/film. He passionately works with the NASW-NY to combat antisemitism in social work. Bradley's hobbies include theatre, film, art, design/architecture, and skiing (despite his fear of heights).
