Therapists in Watkins Glen, NY

My name is Ms. Lisa Rosario. I'm glad that you stopped by today. I know it can be difficult to meet with a new therapist and I want to thank you for thinking of taking the steps to start this therapeutic alliance with me. Let me tell start by telling you about myself. I am a New York City, Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 20 years’ experience in this field. I love what I do and do what I love, so my extensive experience in this field has given me a career I take pride in. I am a first-generation, New York born and raised Puerto Rican Latinx, who identifies as female. I am fully bilingual (Spanish) and bicultural. I earned my bachelor’s degree at Antioch University in Ohio, and my graduate degree at New York University. I continue to share the knowledge I’ve been blessed with by teaching at Hunter College Silberman School of Social Work where I’ve been an Adjunct Professor for the past 9 years. I am also in the process of starting a doctoral candidacy. Throughout my career I’ve worked in different settings with a variety of individuals, couples, adolescents/families who have a variety of personal issues that I have listed as part of this profile. I have had a wide array of therapeutic intervention situations that include, but are not limited to depression/anxiety, trauma, sexual/physical abuse, relationships, family concerns, addictions of all kinds, life struggles and immigration, to name a few. I realize that starting this experience can be a bit daunting. That said, allow me to give you and idea of how we would start this process if we are to work together. I would begin by asking you a few questions so I can really understand what you’ve been going through, but before that I’d like to explain to you a little about who I am and what I do as a Therapist. You can always feel free to ask any questions you may have about this process and how we will work together to help you feel better. Next, I may ask you to discuss some of the concerns you may have outlined in your initial message that may have brought you into treatment. I will then ask some questions about your history, background, your symptoms and current struggles. After we've discussed these concerns, we can discuss a bit about your relationships, your interests, your strengths, and your goals. Together we can assess your situation and go over some next steps. Some of this will involve discussing a treatment plan that considers what you feel are your most pressing concerns and how they impact your everyday life. Then we can discuss options as to how we can focus on some of these points and what methods can be used to address them. If that sounds like a plan you can work with, we may be a good fit. Feel free to message me through Better Help to determine when would be the best time for you to set up an initial contact time/date. I look forward to meeting you. Be well and take good care.

I am licensed in New York with over 20 years of professional work experience. I have worked in the community mental health system for the majority of my career and have had the opportunity to work with individuals with a wide range of mental health and substance use disorders. My last position before entering private practice was as the Vice President of Clinical Services for the largest outpatient mental health clinic in my county. I utilize a combination of Person-Centered, Cognitive Behavioral, and Solution-Focused Therapies to assist individuals in addressing challenges occurring in their lives.

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.

I am licensed in New York with 16 years of professional work experience. I am a dynamic Licensed Clinical Social Worker and I specialize in life transitions (time in a person’s life, which calls for deep self-evaluation and reflection), depression, anxiety, relationships, attachment anxiety, codependency, parenting, childhood/adult trauma, religious trauma. I use compassion and empathy, as well as alternative methods of healing to help you identify your own life’s path. While life is an ongoing process of learning and growth, I will help you walk your journey free from the grips of anxiety, depression, inner criticism and fear of loss. I often utilize a combination of treatment methods in my practice. In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and then decide the most appropriate ways to help you make progress. We will take a look at your history, thoughts, emotions, current experiences and dreams to explore their relationship to each other and your mental health. During treatment, I'll help you learn how to push back against barriers that keep you from identifying and achieving your goals. During our work together you can expect validation, acceptance, improved understanding of the dynamics that are impacting your mental health and human development, as well as a clear/thoughtful approach toward the resolution of matters that you are seeking to address/resolve. Most of my clients see a gradual lifting of symptoms within the first month and sustained improvement thereafter.

I believe in the potential of human beings to grow, change, experience, seek and find meaning in their lives. I believe in existential, humanistic and person-centered perspectives where respect and dignity of, and for individuals are paramount to their therapeutic process. Growth and change are processes that occur as a result of a combination of one's life experiences; however, our daily life experiences often do not afford the time or space for such self-exploration of one's feelings, thoughts or interpersonal connections and relationships. Therapy is therefore a person-driven process which allows for self-examination and change. In an environment of safe space individuals begin to unravel their life narrative(s) and explore aspects of their lives that require introspection, insight, understanding, and/or resolution. My goal is to facilitate the creation of "safe space" for the self-examination of one's narrative(s). I warmly invite you, in your own time, to engage in your own process of self-examination in a safe, nurturing and healing environment.
