Elizabeth Kapstein, LCSW-R, CASAC, EMDR
Difficult feelings can be a gateway for personal growth. I am an interactive therapist who listens carefully and shares my perspective. Therapy with me is an opportunity to explore and better understand your thoughts and feelings, to make sense of your experiences and experiment with new ways of being, and to try new things to figure out together what helps. I will make suggestions for things you can try, but I will rely on you and your experiences to be the true test of whether something works. I want you to feel better, grow and thrive.
As a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) and Certified Alcoholism and Substance Abuse Counselor (CASAC), I have been practicing psychotherapy since 2006. I have years of experience working in community clinics and health organizations with individuals, couples, and groups. She has a lot of experience to draw from, having worked for non-profits and private practice in the past. From my international experiences, I have gleaned a deep respect and understanding for culture, its meaning and I utilize an eclectic approach tailored to client's needs and work with clients from diverse cultural and ethnic background.
In addition to my private psychotherapy practice, I have worked at Harlem United, Guidance Center for Mental Health, Post Graduation Center for Mental Health, Henry Street Settlement House, and TRI Center, The Recovery Center. I am also an alumni and mentor in the National Health Service Corp.
