i would love to chat with you! I am, of course, imperfect, but one thing that is true about me is that I really care, i love my work, and I am not too bad at understanding others. I have a Master's in Social Work from Columbia University and am writing my PhD dissertation at the same institution.  

I have worked in multiple venues over the last 25 years, always specializing in the clinical aspect of my work. I have special training in chronic illness and trauma and have written many articles in grass-roots and even prestigious journals and have presented at numerous national and international conferences. I can conduct therapy in English, Spanish, French, Russian, German, Dutch, and Portuguese. While I do have solid credentials, my biggest strengths are my warm heart, compassion, and genuine desire to help others. I am 150% dedicated to my work and will go the extra mile to help you heal. I am not afraid of challenging issues but also help people dealing with more frequent problems.

I have reviews posted on healthgrades.com, yelp.com, RateMDs.com, google, and alltherapist.com and can also provide you with non-confidential references. You can reach me at 917-488-8383 or KLandmann@me.com.  I would be honored to help you, but if you are not comfortable with me in the end, the highest ethical standards to which I adhere necessitate me making a referral to someone more suited to you. That being said: Life is a challenge--let's tackle it together!

 

Karen is great! Have been working with her for 4 months now and she has really helped me with my PTSD. I would highly recommend her!<br />

Karen is amazing. She doesn't make you feel like a test tube, she makes you feel like a person. Couldn't be more grateful

I feel empowered, relaxed, hopeful, and blessed after I chat with Karen. I feel really supported, and like I am in very capable hands. I cannot recommend her services enough. Not only do her education and experience stand for themselves, but her dedication to her clients shines so amazingly! I'm extremely impressed with how quickly I feel relief and the power to change. She genuinely cares, is very down to earth, and I feel safe with her. She's smart, confident, and quick. I'm SO grateful to have her support!

She's wonderful. Instantly made me feel valuable and confident. Great sense of humor

Karen is attentive and thorough while also making the time to spend one on one with you. Her relaxed style makes it easy to make good progress with her and feel good by the end of a session. Much more work for me to do!!

My therapist came through for me despite my despair and my giving up. I was in a crisis and felt the risk weighing on me. She really came through and made me thankful O reached out for help! Thank you so much! I finally feel I am on my way to recovery after years of darkness!

Caring, empathetic and thoughtful! It's a pleasure talking to her.

Very empathetic and full of good tips/techniques for anxiety relief. Down to earth and knowledgeable.

Wow, I cannot recommend this counselor highly enough. Karen represents my first good experience with therapy. She intuitively understood my situation right off the bat. I totally and completely trust her feedback. Her advice and empathy have been extremely comforting, grounding, and validating in the light of what I have been dealing with. Her responses are especially thoughtful and straight-forward. I do not at any time feel she is talking down to me, patronizing, or using intimidating therapist-speak. I am very sensitive and she always proves her ability to deal expertly with that. She talks to me like a friend. She is very down to earth and relatable, yet she is also highly experienced, and it shows. She has rekindled my trust in therapy and I know she will be great for anyone who seeks her out as a counselor! :)

Will recommend top absolutely anyone! Amazing isn't the word to be used here! Incredibly unbelievable!

I can't say enough about this provider. I wasn't sure about this type of therapy at first- having been active in traditional cognitive behavioral therapy before. She has made this truly appropriate for my present situation and her suggestions and guidance have equipped me to move forward through some pretty heavy issues. We are still at work and I am so glad she is my therapist.

What can I say?! Karen was heaven sent when I was going through an emotion intense time. Not only was she professional, she was kind, empathetic, and wise. She listened to me nonjudgmentally. I felt in such safe hands with Karen as my therapist. She was really there for me when I needed support. Thank you, Karen!

She is there when you need help, and definitely can help you make your life better. I've had a great experience talking to her because I felt that somebody really cares about what im saying or my seemingly meaningless problems. Perfect score from me.
