Getting to know Joe Sasson

Hello, my name is Joe Sasson. I am a licensed clinical social worker, license #75121. I enjoy working with diverse populations, ages spanning from 8 to 108 years old. My approach I listen attentively and together we figure out your therapy goals. I believe in your strength and inner wisdom to guide healing. Strengthening you is the goal. I use EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique), TFT (Thought Field Therapy), AIT (Advanced Integrative Therapy), CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy), and parts work. My focus I have experience with clients of all ages. I enjoy working with children, teens, and adults needing to strengthen self-esteem, challenged with trauma, PTSD, anxiety, and depression. I understand work can be a stressor and enjoy helping those needing coping skills. My communication style I create an emotionally safe, relaxed, non-judgmental environment where you can feel trust and care. You will feel involved, see progress, and look forward to advancing in your treatment. My journey to therapy I wasn’t always interested in being a therapist; my bachelor’s was in film and TV. I moved from San Diego to New York City to work in film, but all I found were front desk receptionist jobs at mental health centers. I understood the universe was saying, “You need to help people.” So I earned my master’s in social work from New Mexico Highlands University to become a licensed therapist. I have loved my job ever since. My goals for you Goals are set within the first or second session. Both long- and short-term goals can change and shift as you grow and better understand your needs and wants.
