Lauren M. Pluchino, MSW, LCSW
I am a New Jersey Licensed Clinical Social Worker (also known as a "psychotherapist") with over ten years experience helping clients move towards emotional and mental health and well-being. Working with adults in individual therapy, I use an integrative approach designed to suit the specific needs of each of my clients. My holistic, person-centered approach to therapy has helped numerous clients successfully navigate and overcome issues including, but not limited to:
-
Depression
-
Anxiety
-
Stress
-
Relationship issues
-
Work-life imbalances
-
Life transitions
-
LGBTQIA+ issues
-
Chronic or terminal health issues
-
Grief and loss

Self-Esteem
I believe that by incorporating the right therapeutic approach, a holistic view of overall wellness, and genuine support and empathy, I empower my clients to succeed on their personal paths to emotional peace and wellness.
