Debra Washington, LCSW
About me
I have a Master's Degree in Social Work from NYU and, for the past twenty-five years, I have worked with families, adolescents and adults in social services and 14 years working in a mental health clinic, with couples, families and adolescents, where I became a Licensed Clinical Social Work therapist. My expertise is in assisting those who find themselves having to start live over after a life-changing event (divorce, having to cope with a career change, loss). I utilize Schema Therapy and CBT Therapy to assist you to explore your past (childhood, family dynamics, life experiences and how they may have contributed to where you are today. Journaling and Motivational Interviewing are tools and assist the process. The ultimate outcome is empowerment, improved self esteem and the ability to make better choices and informed decisions.
