About me

Hello!) My name is Joselin Herrera. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of New Jersey and New York. I earned my Bachelor in Psychology at Stony Brook University and my Master of Social Work at Hunter College. I was a psychotherapist at an outpatient mental health clinic in NY working on issues such as depression, anxiety, parenting and family struggles, trauma and abuse, as well as life changes. I worked with diverse population in regards to ethnicity/cultures, sexual orientation, disabilities, and socio-economic status.

I believe in a strengths-based approach utilizing cognitive behavioral and solution focused techniques. You can identify your strength during this reading as you have already made a brave decision to seek help. It's imperative that a trusting therapeutic relationship is built so you feel confident to express yourself in a safe and supportive environment. I believe our work is based on a team approach where we work together to achieve your desired goals. Once we identify your desired goals I can provide tools to help you achieve those goals.

I look forward to working with you.

Joselin is the best therapist among 6 I have tried during last a couple of years. She is good listener, and sets up goals for her clients. I get very good guidelines to make a difference in my everyday struggles.

Joselin is an amazing therapist. Amazing listener, answers in a timely manner, compassionate, and helps you see situations at different angle to guide you through a situation. She helped me immensely last year, I stopped therapy after I was able to use the skills she helped me learn to get through them. Im in another pickle so I returned. I recommend her. Nothing but a great experience with her!

I filtered through a few therapists before hitting the jackpot with J Herrera. She is thorough, organized, timely, respectful, and thoughtful. She always found ways to reflect my accounts of the past week back into my goals. I felt very encouraged and empowered to set boundaries, which I found to be my main goal during our time together. She also encouraged me to look at situations factually, and pointed out when I had done that on my own which is really encouraging.
I love that she recalls things I'd already told her and can connect past events to present. I never had to repeat myself. I love that she calls right on time and gives a solid amount of time to discuss things and is organic about ending the session without cutting a conversation short. It felt like a really great balance of listening vs asking/presenting ideas. I am very satisfied with her help and highly recommend her!

Joselin has been an excellent therapist for me. She identified exactly what I needed from the very first session. She listens and is kind and caring in her sessions.
