Getting to know Jennifer Gayman

Hello. My name is Jennifer Gayman, and I have been a clinical social worker for the past 19 years. I earned my Master's in Social Work from New York University. As a therapist, I have worked with clients facing depression, anxiety, substance abuse, and grief and loss. My approach I work with clients to develop coping skills using psychoeducation, motivational interviewing, and cognitive behavioral therapy techniques. I aim to empower clients to better manage their emotional and behavioral struggles. My focus I have experience working with adults ages 18 and older who are struggling with depression, anxiety, substance abuse, and grief or loss. My communication style I strive to create an authentic, therapeutic environment where clients feel validated and less alone. My journey to therapy I have known for most of my life that I wanted to provide mental health therapy. I understand that life is hard without the added struggles of mental health and substance abuse issues, and I want to be a supportive guide in clients' journeys toward recovery. My goals for you I work to meet clients where they are, focusing on what they most want to address. I may offer resources and homework that clients are open to exploring. My first session with you Clients can expect the first appointment to focus on assessing their mental health needs and developing goals for change.
