Denise E. Taylor, LCSW, CASAC-T I am a individual, couples and family therapist licensed in New York. I would describe myself as a “born social worker”, with a passion and life committed to service. Denise believes that a social worker is who she is, and who she was called to be and not just what she does for a living. I have 20 yrs. professional experience of working with individual dealing with among other things: Intimate Partner and other violence, substance use disorder, depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges and life coaching. I also helped many people who have experienced trauma or emotional abuse. My therapy style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don’t believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, psychodynamic and rational-emotive therapy. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. Thank you for being open and doing this for yourself. I’m so proud of you. It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you. Something personal about me is, in another world where there are no disenfranchised or underserved people and there was peace and harmony with all, or there where no life/emotional struggles, I would love to be a full time “Shopper” for herself and others ????and I would own a Target!! I look forward to working with you!
