Chet Lesniak(He/Him/His)

Hi, I’m Dr. Chet Lesniak, a licensed psychologist offering telehealth services in 38 states through PSYPACT. I’ve had the privilege of working with people from all walks of life, helping them navigate a wide range of mental health challenges, life transitions, and the everyday obstacles that can get in the way of happiness.

Many of the people I work with are carrying a lot — stress, anxiety, loneliness, fear — and often feel like they’re just trying to make it through the day without ever really getting a chance to exhale. I create a space where you can finally take that deep breath.

My approach to therapy is personal and tailored. I know that healing looks different for everyone, so I draw from a variety of evidence-based approaches depending on your unique needs. These include contemplative and psychodynamic psychotherapy, mindfulness-based stress reduction, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and more. Together, we’ll set meaningful goals for your mental health and take steps toward those goals at a pace that feels right for you.

I earned my PhD in Psychology from New York University and have worked in clinics, schools, and hospitals. My style is practical, down-to-earth, and grounded in real connection. I truly enjoy supporting people as they move toward greater peace, clarity, and fulfillment — and I’d be honored to be part of your journey.
