Getting to know Florence Chirichiello

I received my Master’s in Social Work from Stony Brook University and have practiced in the field of Social Work for the past 24 years. My passion is working with children and families. I have had the honor of working with very diverse populations in NY and NJ, helping clients overcome many challenges. I have worked with clients from various backgrounds, including individuals coping with traumatic brain injuries (TBI), developmental disabilities, psychiatric diagnoses, home and community-based interventions for children with severe emotional disturbances, preventive casework for families involved with CPS, medical social work, crisis prevention, and school counseling. As a School Counselor and School Social Worker, I enjoy working closely with children and their family units from a strengths perspective, taking all factors into account as they affect each child. These factors may include cultural and religious values, family values, family dynamics, coping skills, adverse childhood experiences (ACEs), support systems, strengths, weaknesses, academics, social and emotional intelligence, and more. It is important to get the full picture in order to perform an accurate assessment and develop a tangible treatment plan. ***Please note this provider uses a platform called Headway to manage their practice for clients using health insurance.
