“Prior to seeing Lauren I had not the greatest experiences with finding new therapists but after the first visit, she gave me hope! She is extremely personable and let me be me. I didn't feel like a nuisance describing my lengthy history and list of issues, I felt very understood and validated. I look forward to working with her!”

Getting to know Lauren Nissenbaum

Asking for help can seem overwhelming, intimidating, and uncomfortable, but it is a clear sign of strength. You are giving yourself a chance to be seen and heard, while also gaining a better understanding of your own thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. I value the special connections that are established between myself and my clients through building rapport. It is my responsibility to ensure that my clients receive individualized care based on their current needs and concerns. I utilize expressive and thought-provoking techniques from evidence-based practices to assist my clients in navigating their emotions and stressors with the appropriate tools and coping skills. I hold a Master’s in Social Work from Stony Brook University and a Bachelor’s degree from Adelphi University, which have equipped me with the knowledge and skills to provide compassionate and effective support.

What should a new client know about working with you?

I am a Licensed Master Social Worker in New York State. I received my Bachelor’s Degree in Social Work at Adelphi University and my Master’s Degree in Social Work at Stony Brook University. I have experience working with adolescents, teens, young adults, adults, and older adults. My areas of focus include but are not limited to: anxiety, depression, life transitions, trauma, substance abuse, and low self-esteem. Through compassion and humor (when appropriate), I foster a safe and non-judgmental space for you to process your emotions, challenges, and successes while promoting growth and healing.
