Teresa Horton, LCSW

Psychotherapist
NY
I am Teresa Horton, LCSW, and a graduate of Columbia University with a Master's in Social Work. I discovered the field of social work through my sister's chronic illness as a child. The hospital social worker who supported my sister and family opened my eyes to the compassion needed to care for and connect with families facing unanticipated difficulties. From a young age, I knew I wanted to help others process difficult life experiences. My approach In providing care to my clients, I offer support throughout their life challenges and experiences. I am a therapist who looks for your strengths and brings them to your attention while helping identify areas that would benefit from change. My focus I have worked with a range of clients, many of whom face difficulties coping with stressful life changes. Clients often struggle with loss, traumatic experiences, major life transitions, depression, and/or anxiety. My communication style Clients feel empowered after sessions by spending time identifying their strengths. I assign realistic interventions to implement after sessions, which assist in integrating the changes the client hopes to see.
