Alison Solomon, LCSW
About me
I have been a licensed clinical social worker for thirty years and have experience working with people from all different backgrounds who are struggling with a wide variety of challenges. Specific areas of expertise include: people who feel different because of their sexuality, physical abilities, ethnicity, etc; people who don't want to be judged for who they are, how they feel, or what they do; families of holocaust survivors; family relationships and partner issues . The feedback I receive from clients is that they find me to be caring and nonjudgmental, and they appreciate that I am honest and direct with them. You can expect me to walk with you through whatever difficulties you are facing and help you learn more about yourself and the way you interact with the world.
