Aileen Stotter, LMHC

Aileen Stotter is a New York licensed mental health counselor - LMHC - with 11 years of professional experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, anger, depression, relationship strain, trauma and eating concerns. She speaks English and practices from New York.

Aileen uses straightforward, task-focused sessions that help people notice patterns in thoughts and actions. She works with clients to identify triggers for anger and frustration, and to practice alternative responses that reduce reactivity over time. Sessions often involve setting clear goals and trying small experiments between meetings.

She often applies Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at how thoughts and behaviors influence mood. That approach can be useful for panic, low mood, obsessive thoughts, and trouble managing impulsive reactions. She also addresses practical life concerns such as family problems, communication difficulties, and coping with big changes.

Aileen pays attention to body image, codependency, and eating-related issues when they show up alongside anxiety or anger. She helps people untangle family of origin patterns and manage guilt, shame, or control issues that contribute to distress. Work is focused on concrete skills people can use in daily life.
