Christopher Standish, LCSW
About me
I am an LCSW therapist licensed New York State. I have 9 years of professional work experience. I have worked in publicly funded mental health clinics, as well as substance abuse treatment communities.
I have experience in helping a wide range of clients, from children to adults, couples and families, with a wide range of metal health presentations. I have partnered with clients to improve their issues with stress, anxiety, relationships, anger management, motivation, self esteem, and confidence. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and trying to understand their unique experience.
I will strategize our discussions and treatment plan to your unique and specific needs. Making the first more towards therapy can be daunting. I am proud of your courage in getting started!
