Our Approach
At YCDI, we recognize that self-care can sometimes feel like a luxury rather than a necessity. Our approach is flexible and tailored to your current emotional needs, lifestyle, and goals. Our practice is led by Berenice Rosales-Nadel, LMHC-D, alongside a team of licensed clinicians committed to thoughtful, individualized care.
We offer a range of evidence-based therapeutic modalities designed to support individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, life transitions, and other emotional challenges.
For those seeking deeper clarity or diagnostic insight, we also provide specialized services such as autism testing and evaluations, ADHD evaluations, and bariatric psychological evaluations as part of a comprehensive approach to care.
Our Mission
Our mission is to support you in your process of self-discovery, healing, and personal growth.
Living in New York City can bring unique pressures — from demanding careers to fast-paced lifestyles — which can contribute to stress, disconnection, and emotional fatigue. Our therapists are committed to meeting you where you are, offering thoughtful, individualized support that reflects your specific experiences and goals.
We strive to create a safe, non-judgmental space where you can explore your thoughts and emotions openly while building practical tools for long-term well-being.
Our Practice
We are dedicated to providing a supportive and inclusive environment where emotional health and wellness are prioritized.
Our team works with individuals navigating a wide range of experiences, including:
- Anxiety and stress
- Depression and low mood
- Life transitions
- Relationship challenges
In addition to ongoing therapy, some clients come to us for structured evaluations, including autism evaluations, ADHD evaluations, or bariatric surgery psychological evaluations, which may be part of a broader care journey.
Others seek therapy to better understand themselves, strengthen resilience, and improve their overall quality of life.
Our Clinical Team
YCDI is supported by a team of licensed mental health professionals providing individual therapy, couples therapy, and evaluation support services. Our clinicians hold licensure from the State of New York and bring specialized training across evidence-based modalities including CBT, DBT, ACT, and trauma-informed approaches.

A Thoughtful, Client-Centered Experience

We encourage each person to:
• Develop greater self-awareness

• Stay connected to themselves and others
Our role is to support you in a way that feels collaborative, respectful, and aligned with your individual path.
