Jennifer Stone, LCSW-R

I am a clinical social worker with over 20 years of experience based in New York and provide telehealth in Massachusetts, Connecticut, New Jersey and Florida. I specialize in treating adults and older adolescents with depression, confidence concerns, trauma, anxiety from difficulties with panic, intrusive thoughts (obsessive compulsive disorder) and general anxiety, dating, weight loss goals, insomnia and overall life stress.

I aim to help each client treat themselves with more compassion, gain control over their daily thoughts and behaviors, and move forward with a greater sense of confidence and self-worth. We will work together to identify goals that will enhance your life and address areas that may be holding you back. For me, what has really stuck is that we do not have to work so hard at changing how we feel because we do not control our feelings! It is an impossible feat because nobody would ever choose depressed or angry; rather, the focus is on experimenting with looking at things differently and changing our behavior. It is this concept that has been life-changing for my clients and I over the years.

My background is integrative pulling from various types of evidence-based psychotherapy based on individual needs such as problem solving treatment, CBT-Insomnia, Trial-Based CBT, Gottman Method, and TF-CBT for treating PTSD.
