More about Hilary

- LCSW-C
My name is Hilary Brodsky. I am a licensed clinical social worker. I have been working as a therapist for over 20 years. After I graduated from Columbia University in NYC, I received further training and certification in the treatment of Eating Disorders as well as certification in DBT (a mindfulness, behavioral approach to treatment.) I work with individuals, couples and groups and I use a combination of talk therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectic behavior therapy, all with a relational approach. I believe that therapy is a process and I always see myself and my client as a team, working together to help my client achieve a life worth living. Although I have certification in treating Eating Disorders as well as in DBT, I have vast experience treating addiction, depression, anxiety, trauma, self harming behaviors and lifes many challenges. I look forward to working with you.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

I feel so lucky to have found Hilary through BetterHelp. After a long search for the right therapist, I felt so much relief even just after the first time we connected. Hilary is so attentive and engaged. Her expertise and compassion drive each session and I feel completely safe and taken care of every time we speak. I almost feel excited before each session at the possibilities of where we’ll go and in a couple of months I already feel so much growth and healing. Thank you BetterHelp!
Hilary is awesome. Always look forward to our next session.
