Afifa is an amazing therapist! I feel super comfortable with her. She listens really well and gives great advice. Talking to her makes me feel a whole lot better. She checks in on me even when I don’t reach out to her and she is always sending me great material to read and exercises to do for my mental health. I recommend her 110%

More about Afifa Barone, LCSW

I work through the environmental, psychological, behavioral, interpersonal, and situational contributors to wellness. I assist with identifying negative or distorted thinking patterns that often lead to feelings of hopelessness and helplessness. I provide psycho-education on specific life problems that may increase depression and help patients understand how to solve or improve those problems. Together, we collaboratively establish realistic goals to improve mental and emotional well-being. I am a person-centered, sophisticated, open-minded, enlightened, cosmopolitan, and highly dedicated New York State Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 6 years of experience. I hold a Master's in Social Work and a Doctor of Social Work from Yeshiva University, as well as a Bachelor's degree from City University of New York, Queens College. Feel free to email me with any questions you may have.
