Most of my experience has been in private practice but I also spent some time in agencies working with children and adolescents. I believe the agency work gave me wonderful opportunities to work with families and to help them navigate very challenging issues like mood disorders and anxiety.

Taking the step toward therapy shows strength, and I’m honored to be part of your journey. I believe everyone deserves a space where they can feel safe, valued, and truly heard.

Life is complicated enough—and it doesn’t come with a manual. But therapy can be a space where we begin drafting one, together. My goal is to help you live more authentically, compassionately, and in better company with yourself, one step at a time. My approach is rooted in empathy, curiosity, and collaboration. I draw from a range of evidence-based modalities including CBT, DBT, ACT, and existential therapy to meet you where you are. I’m a trauma-informed, LGBTQ+ affirming, client-centered therapist who takes a holistic view of healing. I graduated with a Master's degree in Social Work from Florida Atlantic University in 2021, I obtained my post-graduate license to practice social work in 2024. I have experience supporting individuals navigating depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, PTSD, schizophrenia spectrum disorders, and personality disorders. Together, we’ll build a strong therapeutic alliance, identify unhelpful thought patterns and core beliefs, and work toward sustainable, meaningful change. I believe healing is deeply personal, and no two journeys look the same. As Carl Sagan once said: "I don't know where I'm going, but I'm on my way."

I predominantly work with young men struggling with social anxiety disorder. Do you struggle with social anxiety and poor self-confidence? I know that overcoming it is possible! Many come to therapy for social anxiety because of childhood trauma and how it has manifested in their adult lives. Often this manifests in feelings of poor self-confidence, poor self-worth, and poor self-confidence. At its root, the fundamental belief of those who have social anxiety is the belief, “I am not enough.” Clients get into the habit of comparing themselves to others and it makes them feel inadequate and insecure. Over time clients begin to avoid situations that elicit their anxiety, particularly social situations. This can lead to social isolation and loneliness. Clients will present with complaints of frequent panic attacks, not having a romantic partner, not having friends, not being happy in their jobs and feeling disconnected from life. They are labeled by others as shy, quiet, or introverted. This scenario described myself for much of my life which gives me lived experience to better able to assist you. I help individuals combat their social fears and begin to live a rich and fulfilling life. I do this through cognitive behavioral therapy techniques primarily but also integrate solution-focused therapy, assertiveness training, exposure therapy, and acceptance & commitment therapy. Whether you're a teen struggling to make friends and socialize or you are an adult unable to speak up at work meetings or unable to ask someone out on a date, I'm here for you! Seeking therapy can be frightening but I want to assure you that you will be most welcome if you take that leap of faith!

Taking the step toward therapy is a deeply personal journey, and I want you to feel at ease from the very first session. We’ll begin with introductions, creating a space where you can share at your own pace, with no pressure or urgency to disclose personal details. My priority is to foster a sense of trust and rapport, so you feel supported, understood, and empowered throughout the process. With over 24 years of clinical experience, I specialize in helping clients manage stress, depression, anxiety, family conflict, and relationship challenges. My approach is rooted in respect, sensitivity, and compassion—I tailor each treatment plan to fit your unique needs. Therapy is a collaborative journey, and together, we’ll work toward solutions that bring clarity, resilience, and healing. The best way to understand the impact of my approach is through the voices of those I’ve had the privilege to work with. Clients describe me as supportive, attentive, and insightful. Many have shared that I help them see beyond rigid perspectives, create new possibilities, and manage their emotions in a healthier way. They find comfort in knowing that therapy with me is a safe space where they feel truly heard. I welcome clients from all cultural backgrounds, ethnicities, and walks of life, believing that human connection is essential to mental wellness. Whether you're navigating relationship struggles, self-esteem challenges, anxiety, or family dynamics, I am here to guide and support you. Therapy is about progress, not perfection. Together, we’ll work toward meaningful change in a space designed just for you.

You may be going through big changes in life, fatherhood-motherhood, new marriage, professional challenges, or facing illness, getting older, losing people close to you, moving to a new place, starting over after divorce, or adjusting after a breakup or a change in your military life. These experiences can make anyone wonder who they are, how they relate to others, how they make decisions, and how they deal with grief, change, and conflict. Life keeps giving me chances to adjust to changes in my body, feelings, thoughts, and spirit. Some days are easier than others, and that’s just part of being human. I see it as a way to keep getting stronger, more flexible, and better at handling life.When my emotions feel really strong, I may feel pulled in different directions. But reaching out, connecting with someone, and taking action usually helps me stay resilient and keep moving forward.

Hey there! I’m Craig Lampkin, and I’m thrilled to be a native New Yorker. I became a marriage and family therapist because I’m passionate about hearing people’s stories and helping them through their journeys. My journey started at the Fiorello H. LaGuardia High School of Music & Art and Performing Arts in NYC, which really adds a creative flair to my therapy sessions. I love incorporating visual cues along with a variety of therapeutic approaches to keep our time together engaging and fun! We’ll team up to explore new coping strategies, decision-making skills, and problem-solving techniques that can help you thrive in life. In my practice, I use different therapeutic modalities as key tools to support your growth in thinking, emotions, and physical abilities while reducing any troublesome behaviors. I tailor these methods to fit your unique needs. For instance, Cognitive Therapy helps in shifting negative thought patterns, while Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) combines thoughts and actions to tackle various psychological challenges. If you’re dealing with trauma, Trauma-Focused Cognitive Therapy can provide a safe space to process those experiences. Narrative Therapy is all about empowering you to rewrite your life story, whereas Structural Therapy focuses on enhancing family dynamics to mend conflicts. With Strategic Therapy, we’ll employ specific strategies to tackle problems, and Solution-Focused Therapy will help us zero in on your goals and strengths for positive outcomes. Together, these approaches work wonderfully to boost your well-being and personal growth. Let’s embark on this journey together!

Hi, I am Georgia and I am of Caribbean heritage.

Welcome! I am so happy you here! I’m Tania Jacques, Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), and I believe everyone deserves a safe place to feel heard, supported, and understood. Life can become overwhelming when you’re dealing with anxiety, depression, stress, burnout, relationship challenges, or struggling to maintain your emotional well-being. You don’t have to navigate those experiences alone allow me to be here for you. I work with adults and young adults who are ready to better understand themselves, develop healthier coping skills, and create meaningful, lasting change. Whether you’re feeling emotionally exhausted, overwhelmed by work, experiencing low self-esteem, or facing a difficult life transition, my goal is to help you regain confidence, find balance, and move toward the life you want. My practice provides a compassionate, nonjudgmental, and culturally responsive space where healing and personal growth can happen at your own pace.
