Getting to know Ivona Lazarovska
Looking for a space to process emotions, gain clarity, and move toward meaningful change? I work with individuals and couples facing anxiety, depression, addiction, relationship challenges, trauma, crisis, and life transitions. I am a dual-licensed Clinical Social Worker and Addiction Counselor with a Master’s Degree from Rutgers University and over 10 years of experience. My approach is collaborative, supportive, and tailored to your needs, focusing on insight, strengths, and practical strategies to help you feel more balanced, confident, and empowered. Feeling unsure where to begin is completely normal — we can work through it together.
What should a new client know about working with you?
My approach to therapy is collaborative, strengths-based, and tailored to each individual’s needs. I believe therapy should feel both supportive and practical, helping you better understand your experiences while developing tools for meaningful change. I integrate evidence-based techniques with a flexible, client-centered style, focusing on insight, emotional regulation, coping strategies, and healthier relationship patterns. Together, we work to identify goals, address underlying challenges, and build skills that foster resilience, balance, and long-term well-being.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
The first session is an opportunity for us to get to know each other and begin building a comfortable, supportive working relationship. We will discuss what brings you to therapy, explore your current concerns, and review relevant background information. This session is also a space for you to ask questions and share what you hope to gain from therapy. My goal is to create an environment where you feel heard, understood, and at ease. Together, we will start identifying priorities and outlining a plan that aligns with your needs and goals.
**I recommend when booking on zocdoc directly to book 24 hours in advance. This allows time for me to follow up with you and email you the required intake forms.**
