About Saudia

LCSW Saudia Garnette has 5 years of clinical experience and practices in New York. She focuses on stress, anxiety, grief, depression, addictions, relationship concerns, anger, self-esteem, and hospice and end-of-life counseling. Saudia uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, the Gottman Method, Mindfulness Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing as her primary approaches.

Saudia structures sessions to be solution-focused and practical. She helps people identify patterns that keep problems going and then tries out new ways of coping. Sessions often include skill practice, noticing thoughts and feelings, and setting small, achievable goals between meetings.

She works with people who are dealing with loss or caring for someone at the end of life, using approaches that address grief and decision stress. For relationship concerns she draws on methods designed to improve communication and reduce repeated conflict. For addictive behavior she uses motivational strategies to strengthen reasons for change and build manageable steps forward.

Her use of mindfulness supports calmer attention to strong emotions and reduces reactivity. CBT techniques target unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns linked to depression and anxiety. The Gottman-informed work focuses on practical communication tools rather than abstract theory.

Saudia practices in New York and conducts sessions in English. She holds the LCSW credential. To begin, prospective clients are asked to follow the practice's process for matching and scheduling a first session.

Approaches used in online sessions and what they involve

Saudia commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy in her work. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms like depression and anxiety. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to lower reactivity and help people notice emotions without acting on them.

The therapist treats approach selection as a collaborative process. She will discuss clients' goals, symptoms, and preferences and then recommend methods to try. Adjustments are made together if something does not fit or produce the expected benefit.

Practical benefits of working online are worth confirming with the practice before booking because specific formats are not listed in the biography. In general, remote sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a workday, reduce travel time, and allow brief check-ins when a full in-person visit would be difficult. Confirm which session formats are offered and how scheduling works before your first appointment.
