Getting to know Erica Bello

*This provider does not accept any Medicaid or Medicare plans* I am here to support you through challenges like anxiety, depression, life transitions, and relationship issues. I integrate evidence-based modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Solution-Focused Therapy (SFT), and mindfulness practices to help you develop practical strategies tailored to your unique needs. My approach prioritizes active listening and creating a collaborative, empowering environment where you feel seen and understood. Together, we'll focus on identifying your strengths and leveraging them as tools for resilience and growth. I believe therapy is a space for healing and transformation, and every challenge offers an opportunity for self-discovery. I am deeply committed to fostering a warm, affirming space that is inclusive and grounded in social justice, ensuring that all identities and experiences are valued and respected. Through our work, my goal is to help you explore your feelings, navigate obstacles, and find clarity and confidence as you move toward a more fulfilling and meaningful life. Outside of sessions, I enjoy watching Formula 1, spending time with my black Labrador, and trying new recipes. Time with friends and family keeps me grounded. Starting therapy is an act of courage and self-care. Wherever you are in your journey, you don’t have to do it alone - let’s build a life of clarity, growth, and well-being together. Erica Bello has a Master’s in Social Work from The Silver School of Social Work at New York University. Erica Bello is a Licensed Social Worker, LSW 44SL07143500 at Cerebral. Supervised by Deborah Almonte, Licensed Clinical Social Worker 44SC05785800. As endorsed by Tyra Asberry on Psychology Today: "I'm often impressed by Erica's compassion and effective communication that she has to offer."

What is your typical process for working with clients?

I aim to support individuals in navigating their unique journeys and overcoming challenges. My passion is helping you find clarity and strength during tough times in a safe environment where you can explore your feelings. I believe everyone has the potential to grow and thrive, and I’m here to guide you through that process. Together, we’ll identify barriers holding you back and set meaningful goals tailored to your aspirations, developing practical strategies for the life you desire. I am dedicated to helping you build resilience and self-awareness, empowering you to face challenges with confidence. As we embark on this journey, I will celebrate your progress and encourage your growth, ultimately aiming to help you cultivate a deeper understanding of yourself for a more fulfilling life.
