Override Hero Title

I have been practicing as a Social Worker for over 38 years. I have a lot of experience in the areas of behavioral health services which includes a host of treatment focus areas and chemical dependency. I am energetic and enthusiastic about my work with clients. I am currently accepting new clients at this time. I like to incorporate in my work with clients self expression and self exploration. Outside of my work I love to engage in dance therapy, exercise for fitness, reading and sewing.

I went to Stony Brook University for my Masters in Social Work and my Bachelor's degree in Social Work from Adelphi University. I have done two post graduate certification programs. One in substance use and another in trauma informed care.

I believe that it is important for every client to understand their story deeper and what their values, beliefs, and core language is like and how impacts there well-being. I believe in the mind-body connection.

My therapeutic approach focuses on my belief that when it comes to an individual’s life, they are the expert. However, managing that alone can be cumbersome and stressful. As a therapist, I’m interested in collaborating with you to discover what parts of your life you hope to keep or perhaps enrich and what factors you want to change. I look to combine my experience with my clinical knowledge to aid clients in their journey to becoming their best selves.

I believe psychiatric care should feel like a real conversation, not a clinical interrogation. I believe in science, and I’m curious about what’s happening beneath the symptoms how brain chemistry, genetics, trauma, sleep, and physical health may be affecting the way you feel and function.

I’m solution focused. I want to understand what’s keeping you stuck, explain what I think is going on, and work with you on a wayI need initial intake documents to be completed so that we can spend more time during the visit. forward and treat the symptoms! I’ll be transparent about our progress, and I hope you’ll be honest with me, too. You can expect me to listen without judgment, challenge you when it’s helpful, and celebrate your wins alongside you.

I do require initial intake documents to be completed so we can spend more time in the visit.

Hello! I am a board-certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner. I specialize in the medication management of the psychiatric conditions of adolescents and adults.

Life’s daily demands can easily become overwhelming, whether you are navigating work, school, relationships, or the complexities of parenting. I provide a completely nonjudgmental space where individuals, children, families, and couples can feel safe sharing their raw experiences. I recognize that current or past trauma often magnifies these everyday stressors. My goal is to partner with you to process these hurdles, uncover your innate resilience, and help you regain a sense of balance.

Does your child or adolescent’s behavior leave you wondering, “What is going on?”Are they having meltdowns, withdrawing, struggling at school, worrying, or feeling sad? Children and adolescents often communicate their feelings through behavior long before they have the words to explain what they are experiencing.I work with children, adolescents, and families navigating challenges such as adoption, divorce, co-parenting, blended-family transitions, grief and loss, school-related worries, family conflict, and the growing push for independence. I help children and caregivers better understand what may be underneath the behavior while strengthening connection, communication, and emotional regulation. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and Registered Play Therapist-Supervisor (RPT-S). I received my Doctorate in Clinical Social Work (DSW) and Master’s in Social Work (MSW) from New York University, and my Bachelor’s of Science in Social Work (BSW) from Cornell University. With more than two decades of clinical experience across inpatient, outpatient, and residential settings.

I provide care for various forms of trauma, in particular complex intergenerational and racial wounds and their somatic impacts. Depression, anxiety and family conflict concerns are a few other areas I also specialize in. I help folx on the margins of dominant cultures navigate the intersectionality of identity.

Before anything else, I want you to know that you don't have to arrive with it all figured out. You can come as you are: tired, unsure, hopeful, or all of it at once. I'm Dr. Monica Thompson, a licensed clinical social worker and addictions specialist, and I've spent my career walking alongside people who've been carrying more than their share. My work and research center the lived experiences of Black women and diasporic communities, and I bring that understanding into every session. I believe your story matters, your culture is a strength, and your healing is worth the investment. In our work together, you'll find someone who listens deeply, laughs easily, and holds space for every part of you, including the parts you haven't shown anyone yet.

Hi, I’m Jennifer Visconti, a Licensed Mental Health Clinician in New York. I earned my Master’s degree in 2017 and have several years of experience supporting individuals through a wide range of emotional, behavioral, and life challenges.

Throughout my career, I’ve worked with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, substance use, anger management concerns, and difficult life transitions. I also have experience working in various treatment settings including correctional facilities, where I’ve had the opportunity to support people from diverse backgrounds and with a variety of needs.

I believe that every person’s story is unique, and I value getting to know the individual behind the challenges they are experiencing. My goal is to create a welcoming, respectful, and nonjudgmental environment where you can feel comfortable being yourself and talking openly about what brings you to therapy.

Whether you’re dealing with a specific concern or simply feel that something in your life needs to change, I’m here to help you navigate the process and work toward meaningful change.

“Therapy for kids who don’t think it’s for them, parents in the thick of it, and women who are doing everything for everyone—except themselves.”

Sound like you or someone you love? Well...I’ve got you covered!

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker specializing in preteens and teenagers navigating ADHD, anxiety, depression, trauma, anger, and the complicated space between parents and kids. Much of my experience was built inside a school-based health clinic at the middle school level. Working with students in the middle of their actual world, not just an office. That perspective shapes everything about how I work.

As an elder millennial and a parent, myself, I understand the impossible math of work-life balance. The guilt of feeling stretched too thin and the fear that you’re somehow getting it wrong. You’re not failing your kid. You’re here, and that’s whatmatters.

My approach is warm but direct, grounded in evidence-based practice and genuine connection. I meet kids where they are...not where we think they should be. I work alongside parents as partners, not critics. Because you know your child better than anyone. My job is to help you find each other again.

I also have a passion of working with women of all ages who are navigating careers, life, the world we live in and all of the complexities in between. I provide a judgement free, open space to live your truth and get answers to those questions that keep you up at night.
