Description
I am a native New Yorker who is passionate about authentic, transparent, and culturally competent care. I am a Certified Grief Informed Professional (CGIP)/previously known as Certified Grief Counseling Specialist (CGCS) with a special focus on grief and loss. Along with this, I have completed Practice-Focused Training in Prolonged Grief Disorder Therapy with Columbia University's The Center for Prolonged Grief. In addition to this, I am also trained in Written Exposure Therapy for PTSD. I welcome clients who have suffered from depression, anxiety, adjustment issues, and PTSD. I know firsthand how painful and life-changing bereavement can be and would be honored if you allow me to join you on your journey for change.
For couples therapy, I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Couples Therapy or Solution Focused Therapy. There is often misunderstanding about these two different modalities and how they are implemented in couples work, if you choose to work with me, I will provide psychoeducation about each approach. During the assessment process, the goals, objectives, belief systems and presenting problems will help inform which therapeutic modality is deemed clinically indicated and appropriate for treatment planning purposes.
*** Please be advised that I provide tele-therapy. In order for us to work together, your insurance will have to provide coverage for tele-therapy or you will have to pay the standard rate per session. I practice under the supervision of Jasmine Trangucci, LCSW-R, who is an approved clinical professional.
