Hello,
My name is Nancy and I am a bilingual Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). I obtained my Master in Social Work from the State University of New York at Albany and I have over 10 years of experience working as a therapist with adults on different settings such as home based, outpatient mental health clinics, crisis units and correctional facilities. I utilize different therapeutic modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) and Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) to help my clients work through depression, anxiety, life changes, relationship issues, self esteem and trauma. I enjoy working in partnership with my clients to determine which therapeutic approach and techniques will support best their journey and healing.
It is important that you feel connected to your therapist in order to reach the transparency needed to achieve your goals. Outside of work, I practice meditation, enjoy reading, cooking, journaling, trying different cuisines, traveling and most recently gardening. I do not have any pets due to my work schedule but I love animals and nature.
One of my personal goals this year is learning to play the guitar.
Thank you for taking the time to read my profile and I look forward to working together.

Nancy is very attentive and knowledgeable. I needed someone with more skills than Talk Therapy and she is perfect. She pulls from a wealth of knowledge and experience when counseling.
