I am an Licensed Clinical Social Worker in NY, CT, and NJ. I have worked with clients to help them overcome stress, anxiety, depression, LGBTQ+ identity, and depression. I enjoy working with individuals who want to work on healing to become a better self and accomplish their goals. I specifically love working with men who identify as gay and/or bisexual having increased stress and need talk therapy.
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
In our first session, we can start on introducing ourselves and discussion what brings you to therapy. How can I assist with some of the specific difficulties you may be experiencing? This will help me identify what I can do as a clinician to create a plan for us to follow-up in future sessions.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
Having worked with individuals for the past 10 years who have struggled with their mental health and substance-use difficulties has made me a better provider. I also feel that helping individuals during moments of crisis helps their realize their self-worth and strengths.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
I love working with clients who identify as LGBTQ+, persons of color, have difficulty managing stress and anxiety, and individuals who strive to work on themselves to increased their sense of self-awareness and accomplish their goals.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
It helps individuals change some negative thoughts and/or behaviors significantly impacting their daily functions. It is also a goal-oriented approach to help individuals achieve some goals they have.
Motivational Interviewing
I have used this method to help people explore some of their behavior that is impacting their way of life.
Strength-Based
I have worked with individuals reflect and build on their strengths and resiliency. It also allows the person(s) to recognize their willingness and ability to push through difficult situations.

I felt heard, understood, and acknowledged during this first session with Tarrance. The conversation went really well, and I definitely feel a lot better than before the call. Tarrance was extremely patient and listened to me while asking engaging and insightful questions that helped both of us to understand where certain issues and behaviors may stem from. Overall, I would highly recommend Tarrance!

Listened to me patiently but he stopped when needed and posed insightful questions I can hold onto.
