Dr. Joyce Wagner
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Ph.D., LCSW-R
As a therapist (with 25 years of experience) I endeavor to help my clients gain both the practical skills (often using those found in the CBT or DBT framework) as well as insight into the underlying issues that may be leading to their distress. I draw from various schools of psychological thought - including psychodynamic, supportive, existential, behavioral, developmental and family systems. I am a trained and certified trauma informed therapist and use EMDR when appropriate for resolving past or present trauma.

Maricia Thompson
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I am a New York based LCSW with a passion and a vigor for helping others on their mental health journey. My therapy approach comes from a place of compassion where one of my main goals is making sure my client feel as supported, heard and empowered as possible. Therapy is not a one size fits all and the approach used with each client individually should reflect this. I help each client articulate their thoughts and feelings in order to get a better understanding of what is causing their depression/anxiety/stress/unhappiness. I approach therapy from an integrative perspective, taking interest in the clients cultural background and experiences and tailoring a therapeutic modality that is the best fit for them.
Just like therapy, healing is also not a one size fits all and I understand that making the first steps into therapy, and towards that healing, may have been a difficult decision and I applaud your courage for making that first step. With your desire for change and my commitment to support and empower you, we will navigate a pace that works best for you to strengthen all aspects of your body and mind and the connection they have to each other.
