Allison Abrams, LCSW-R

I am truly passionate about supporting my clients in their process to gain deeper self-understanding and to foster personal growth through self-compassion. I work from a place of genuine curiosity about my client’s lives and relationships, respecting each person’s path as unique. I take a warm, supportive, and collaborative approach, using the information you present (or, in some cases, avoid) to help you make sense of the thoughts, feelings, and behaviors that may undermine your relationships and productivity. Though I am trained in a variety of therapies, I primarily work from a psychodynamic and cognitive-behavioral perspective. I may also draw upon other complementary practical approaches, such as mindfulness skills based on your needs and goals. Whether you are holding on to limiting beliefs or old narratives that no longer apply, whether you are seeking more joy in life or yearning for more fulfilling relationships, embarking on the journey of self-discovery with a compassionate and accepting other is a powerful first step. I look forward to joining you on that journey.

I am licensed in New York, New Jersey, Massachusetts, and Florida. I am not in-network with any insurance companies. If you have a plan with out of network benefits, you may be able to submit your paid receipt to your insurance company for reimbursement.

Some of my areas of expertise include self-worth, depression, anxiety, family-of-origin conflict, communication struggles, dating and relationship issues, and life transitions, among many others.
