My online therapy sessions are structures to be quite similar to in person counseling. Most clients I see remotely report that they have benefited as well as they would have in person. In addition, I have utilized Zoom and related media before COVID as I have taught psychology classes and continuing education courses online for many years.

Ridgewood, New Jersey therapist: Elana Blumenthal, licensed clinical social worker
Serving Black / African American

Elana Blumenthal

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, PsyA
As a practitioner and social worker for almost to 30 years, I provide a a warm and compassionate environment for my clients. I work with individuals, couples and families of all ages with a primarily psychodynamic approach. My practice is informed by my training as both a clinical social worker and a psychoanalyst, and I work with people's patterns, tendencies and help unlock their unconscious motivations. People often come to me for specific problems that arise in their lives or for more long-term and ongoing issues they may have been struggling with since childhood. Although I may talk about practical issues in a client's life, my focus is geared towards helping a client better understand and accept themselves, and making their lives and relationships richer and more fulfilling.
