More about Judy
- 15 years' experience
- Female
- LCSW
Hello, I am a New York, New Jersey and West Virginia State Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I have over 15 years experience working with mental health and substance use disorders. My other specialty areas include crisis intervention, behavioral health, hospice/end-of-life care, depression/anxiety and domestic violence.
My style has always been to meet my clients where they are as I am a believer of the Harm Reduction model as well as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution Focused and Mindfulness approach. I give a calm, pleasant, safe space for my clients to express how they feel without judgement. Our lives are a work in progress and we deserve to take our own personal inventory to reflect within and take stock of what makes us who we are.
Therapy can be a venture into the self in order to find inner peace and awareness. It can also bring healing, purpose and meaning to one’s life. I am excited to help people work toward their goals. Let's do the work together towards healing and enlightenment to Foster self regulation and self development. I look forward to hearing from you!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
