Greetings! You can call me Rios. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in the state of New York. I have been working with adults, youth, and families for 6 years in New York City. I attended the Silberman School of Social Work at Hunter College and became licensed not long after I graduated.
My counseling style consists of maintaining an open mind and attempting to understand people as a whole. I do my best to comprehend that a range of factors mold people and their triggers. I pride myself in remaining non-judgmental, which is important to ensuring that you feel as comfortable as possible with me. I am able to adjust my style to meet your needs yet I tend to follow the therapy modalities below:
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
- Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT)
- Motivational Interviewing
Also, some of the diagnoses and presenting struggles I have worked with are:
- Depression
- Anxiety
- Schizophrenia
- Autism
- Bipolar
- Borderline Personality
- Anger/Aggression
- Loss and Bereavement
- LGBTQ
- Parenting Skills
- Selective Mutism
- Tourette's Syndrome
I encourage you to reach out to me as soon as you are ready to take the first step in treatment! Looking forward to working with you!
Additional areas of focus: Relationship issues, Family conflicts, Trauma and abuse, Grief, Parenting issues, Anger management, Bipolar disorder
