About Igor
Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in New York with 5 years of experience. Igor Light helps people who are managing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship concerns, depression, and life changes. He works directly with everyday problems like feeling isolated, struggling with communication, or coping with midlife transitions.
Igor uses practical talk-based methods. He draws from cognitive behavioral techniques to spot unhelpful thinking patterns and from acceptance and commitment strategies to help clarify values and take meaningful action. Attachment-based ideas guide work on abandonment, trust, and close relationships. Dialectical behavior ideas are used when people need steadying skills for strong emotions.
Sessions focus on clear goals and skills you can use between meetings. Expect a straightforward conversation about what is causing stress, what has helped before, and small steps to try. Homework can be short exercises, experiments, or values-based actions to practice during the week.
Igor describes his approach as respectful and person-focused. He adapts how he works to what the person says is helpful, and he keeps plans practical and concrete. He does not claim specialties beyond the areas listed and works within his scope as an LMHC licensed in New York.
Background includes five years of clinical work in New York settings. Language of service is English. Prospective clients should confirm current session formats and scheduling details before booking.

How his approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people identify what matters to them and take small actions consistent with those values. It is useful for persistent anxiety, low motivation, and working through life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on noticing thought patterns and testing them with real-life experiments. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, and social phobia. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in close relationships and helps people understand how early bonds affect current trust and communication.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work with the client to decide which methods to emphasize based on goals, preferences, and how problems show up in daily life. That decision is collaborative and can shift over time as progress is reviewed.
Session formats are not detailed in the provided biography, so clients should confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, keep appointments when travel is difficult, or choose shorter check-ins when time is limited. It also allows practice of skills in everyday settings and quick follow-up on homework between meetings.
