Irene Siegelman, MS, NCC, LAC

My therapy practice includes work with children, adolescents, and adults with a range of symptoms and challenges, including depression, anxiety, trauma, difficulty with relationships, behavioral issues, adjustment and loss. I draw on a variety of models to bring clarity to dilemmas and help relieve symptoms.

Therapy should be a safe place that promotes healing. I believe that the process of therapy should be a collaborative one, with the client seen as the “expert” on their life. I strive to help clients realize their own strengths and open themselves to new ways of thinking. My goal is to empower individuals and help them develop confidence in their abilities to overcome any difficulties they are experiencing.

My style is warm and engaging, and I consider the role of the therapist to be a collaborative one. My approach stems from the belief that there is great value in having one’s story heard and understood. In a safe and confidential environment, we will investigate the experiences, feelings, and questions that brought you to therapy, as well as strategies to help you overcome the obstacles that keep you from living the life you want.

As a therapist, I have the opportunity to work with people as they grow, evolve, and learn. Through honest introspection, therapeutic reflection, and a personalized approach, I work with individuals to help them achieve self-actualization and increase their ability to reach their goals. I believe that therapy is a partnership, and the client has allowed me to be a part of their journey in the hopes that I may be able to assist them. I welcome the opportunity.

Choosing therapy is one of the best things we can do for ourselves. Our mental health is a pillar of our lives and tending to it is essential in maintaining a sustainable, healthy existence.

I work under the supervision of a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over twenty years experience.
