About Emmanuel

My name is Dr. Emmanuel Bioh. I am a licensed clinical social worker in the state of New York. I have a BA in Psychology, Master of Social Work from the University of Toronto, and a PhD in Social Work Practice from Adelphi University. I am a proficient mental health and addictions clinician with an extensive background in behavior modification. I am also knowledgeable in Diagnostic Statistical Manual diagnoses. In my 26 years of professional experience, I have provided therapy for individuals diagnosed with different types of mental health conditions, including substance use disorders. I have worked with families with relational issues and those struggling to handle their children with problematic behaviors, including those adjudicated as persons in need of supervision or juvenile delinquent.
I draw on several treatment models and theories in my practice. I individualize my practice and draw on models that best suit my client’s issues or concerns. I have provide clinical oversight for a non-profit organization, which specializes in the treatment of child psychopathology and currently a clinical supervisor in substance abuse rehabilitation facility. I also teach social work practice courses as an adjunct faculty in some of my local universities.

What clients say

  • “Dr. Bioh is wonderful, warm, & very knowledgeable, specifically with couple’s counseling. We both feel heard & understood, and he has offered very useful tools to help us navigate our issues. The only area of improvement I would say is his response time to messages, and his availability. It appears to be limited and not always visible. Sometimes I have to message him to open up his scheduling calendar;) but other than that, we are very pleased with the work we’ve done with him, and plan to continue.”
  • “It's only one session, but I definitely feel confident that I'll make good progress with him”
