Victoria Garofalo, LCSW

Victoria Garofalo, LCSW

Psychotherapist
NJ
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 16 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping adults and adolescents with depression, stress and anxiety, coping with addictions, motivation, self esteem and confidence, and bipolar disorder, among other conditions. I utilize a mix of humor and empathy in therapy, and focus on empowering my clients. I like to take the client's lead as to whether they prefer a more passive, listening approach or if they want to set and achieve goals. I can assign weekly tasks to achieve goals or take a less active approach. I utilize evidence-based practices such as Cognitive Behavioral Treatment, Motivational Interviewing, and Behavioral Activation to assist clients with learning the connections between thoughts, feelings, and behavior, as well as to learn and use effective coping strategies. I'm a therapist with Octave and Evernorth Behavioral Care Group. Octave is a mental health practice providing high-quality care covered by multiple insurances. Evernorth Behavioral Care Group is a behavioral health provider group in-network with Cigna Healthcare and Evernorth Behavioral Health. For my availability, please see my calendar and book an appointment with me via ZocDoc.
