Jesus Robles, LCSW
About me
As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 16 years of professional experience in New York, I specialize in using ego psychology to help clients navigate complex psychological challenges. My clinical work focuses on addressing logical fallacies and maladaptive coping mechanisms, particularly within the context of the complexities of modern life. I employ evidence-based interventions to facilitate clients' understanding of their internal thought processes and how these can impact their behavior and emotional well-being.
My approach is integrative, drawing on various therapeutic modalities while emphasizing the development of clients' ego functions to enhance their adaptive capacity. Through targeted conversations and interventions, I assist clients in identifying and restructuring irrational beliefs and maladaptive coping strategies. My experience includes roles such as Program Coordinator at Mount Sinai Morningside and Associate Program Director at the Institute for Family Health, where I have been involved in program development, clinical supervision, and implementing quality improvement initiatives. This background allows me to create a supportive therapeutic environment, fostering clients' strengths and resilience as they work toward healthier, more adaptive ways of functioning.
