Therapists in New York

I received my masters in social work from the Hunter College Silberman School of Social Work. Currently, I’m a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW-R) with over 12 years of experience working with a diverse population of families, couples, adults and groups at a large non-profit organization whom suffer from depression, anxiety, panic disorders, personality disorders, AD/HD disorder etc. However, I have particular interest in working with persons, who are struggling with various life transitions such as entering college, retirement, new or ending marriage/ relationship, new mothers and fathers and military families amongst other transitional periods that life brings them to increase their self-esteem as well as to help them gain a deeper understanding of their symptoms so they could led a fulfilling life. Lastly, working with biracial or multicultural individuals or interracial couples that are struggling with various aspects of their selves or relationship such as family issues and/or interpersonal difference is a passion of mine. I have an eclectic approach to therapy but I particularly draw on Psychodynamic, solution focused therapy and CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) techniques and tailor them to the individual needs of my clients who are unique in their own ways. If you are seeking a caring, warm, empathic and genuine practitioner, then we would be a good fit. We will work collaboratively to solve problems, increase your self-confidence and create healing so you can live a mentally healthy life.

My name is Maritza. I've been a Licensed Clinical Social Worker for 10 years, and have been working with veterans, spouses, and staff. I have over 20 years of counseling experience. Prior to licensing my experience I worked with domestic violence survivors, individuals in shelter placement, seniors and children. I am a down-to-earth counselor. My strongest attribute is my ability to connect to others. I utilize numerous modalities including but not limited to Client-Centered, Cognitive Behavioral, Mindfulness, Supportive therapy and Narrative therapy techniques in my counseling sessions. I always tell my colleagues that I speak English. I like for my clients to feel comfortable and not feel as they are speaking to a robot or a counselor that utilizes ivy league vernacular. I am a spiritual individual and I am guided during my counseling sessions with the purpose of helping others get through the obstacles that they are facing in their lives. Counseling is the beginning of your healing journey, it can be painful along the way. If you're committed and willing to begin your journey of healing, I will support you in finding ways you can make sense and cope with your experience. I will respond as expeditiously as possible to all messages. On rare occasions, I may not be available but will follow up with emergencies as they arise. Flexibility is key and I am confident that we will be able to work together to find the best day and time for us to work and meet. I am available for phone and video sessions only. If you find yourself in a mental health crisis, a counselor with more availability will be a better fit due to my time constraints. I appreciate your reading my profile and look forward to working together. I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel. - Maya Angelou
