About Edward

Edward Falsey is a licensed clinical social worker with 25 years of experience helping people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and relationship struggles. He uses clear, practical methods so people can start making small changes right away. Edward makes sessions about the person in front of him and their goals.

He blends hypnotherapy with attachment-based and client-centered ideas to address how early relationships affect current patterns. Sessions include talking through emotions, noticing behavior patterns, and trying simple techniques to reduce anxiety and cravings.

Background and approach

He helps people who are dealing with addiction, trauma and abuse, or difficult family dynamics to find steadier ground. Edward draws on cognitive behavioral and mindfulness approaches to teach tools for managing stress and upsetting thoughts. That work often focuses on everyday habits - sleep, routines, communication - that can ease mood and tension.

He also supports people through life changes such as divorce, bereavement, or serious illness. People often bring concerns about abandonment, codependency, or mixed family structures like blended families. Edward pays attention to family of origin issues and how they shape present relationships.

He works to make relationship skills concrete and usable in daily life. Sessions are offered from his New York practice in English. His style is collaborative and respectful - he listens first, then helps plan steps that match each person’s needs and pace.

Online support

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Edward uses hypnotherapy as one option to help people relax bodily tension and focus attention, which can make it easier to work through trauma responses, cravings, or persistent anxiety. He also draws on attachment-based therapy to look at how early relationships shape current patterns of relating and closeness, helping people change repeating dynamics in their adult life.

He favors a client-centered stance where the person’s goals guide each session. Finding the right approach is a collaborative process - he listens to what matters most, experiments with methods that fit the goals, and adjusts based on what feels helpful. That partnership helps tailor whether hypnotherapy, CBT-style skill practice, or mindfulness exercises will be emphasized.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to suit different needs. Video calls let you see facial cues for relational work, phone can be lower bandwidth and easier on a busy day, live chat or messaging work well for short check-ins or when typing feels more comfortable. These options increase flexibility for scheduling, shorten commute time, and make it easier to fit therapy into daily life.
