Dr. Gina Scarano-Osika , NY Psychologist 012289

Dr. Gina Scarano-Osika is a warm and inviting psychologist known for careful, detailed diagnostic skills. She brings an approachable manner to clinical work while attending closely to assessment and formulation, helping people understand the issues they bring to therapy. Dr. Scarano-Osika is a licensed psychologist in New York - NY Psychologist 012289 - and integrates clinical experience with a personable style to support clients through difficult transitions.

Her therapeutic practice blends cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy with relational and attachment-informed techniques. She received relational therapy training at Strong Memorial Hospital in Rochester, and she has found that combining these three approaches often produces the most meaningful progress for many concerns. This integrative stance guides treatment planning and day-to-day clinical work.

Dr. Scarano-Osika and her husband founded a private practice two decades ago, and the practice has grown from two providers to a team of fifteen. That growth reflects a sustained commitment to providing a range of services and collaborating with colleagues to meet diverse client needs. She applies both clinical expertise and practical experience running a multi-provider practice to her work.

She does not feel proficient in gender dysphoria or LGBQ concerns and prefers to refer when those issues are primary. Dr. Scarano-Osika recognizes that beginning therapy can be a challenging step and offers praise for anyone who takes that step toward seeking help.
