Getting to know Taima Elliott
I'm a Brooklyn native and a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with a Master's in Clinical Social Work from Fordham University at Lincoln Center. I am deeply committed to providing compassionate care and support to individuals facing diverse challenges. My journey in social work began over a decade ago, initially supporting adjudicated youth through life transitions, and now providing individual counseling for young and middle-aged adults.
Throughout my career, I have witnessed how transformative individual counseling can be when rooted in empathy and understanding. I am driven to create a safe and nurturing space for individuals to navigate their emotions, find heightened awareness and meaning in problematic issues, while collaborating with each client to accomplish their desired changes and goals. I believe that each client is the expert of their story, and I am dedicated to empowering my clients through an integrative approach to therapy that includes acceptance, guidance, and a little humor.
I am a certified Cognitive Behavioral Therapist (C-CBT) and Certified Grief Counselor (CAGCS). I primarily practice through a relational and attachment-based psychodynamic approach, specializing in anxiety, depression, and complex grief. I am here to walk alongside each of my clients, offering support, understanding, and a genuine commitment to your well-being.
