Vincent Fitzgerald, LCSW, CFRC

I am an experienced Psychotherapist, Certified First Responder Counselor, and Clinical Supervisor dedicated to the art of helping individuals, couples, and families flourish through gaining new insights, perspectives, and ways of navigating challenges we all face in our lives.

Hello there. I have been practicing as a pychotherapist for 8 years, and in that time I have come to believe that our anxiety and depression is not just something that happens within us, but is more likely the result of problems we face in our interpersonal relationships. Examples of this are: struggling to make life decisions for fear of how our families will respond, not sharing fears and anxieties because we don't want others to worry about us, or isolating ourselves becaue we are afraid of what others think about us. This is only a fraction of the challenges we face in our interpersonal relationships, and I believe that because therapy itself is a relationship, it can be used to change the way we relatwe to others. I use a client centerd approach in combination with a systems perspective, and an existential lens in working with my clients. A systems approach allows to examine how family experiences shape our view of who we are, and how we function in the world. I rely on an existential approach because through that lens we can see how the concerns of death, isolation, meaning, and freedom impact our actions, or even our lack of actions. If you choose to work with me, you will learn that therapy, while sometimes hard and painful, can also be filled with laughter and joy as I believe all these experiences are central to relationships. I hope we can learn more about you together.

Please know that I am LGBTQIA aligned, and I have extensive experience working with this thriving, yet still vulnerable population. I am here for you.

I am also a Certified First Responder Counselor dedicated to helping first responders cope with the experience of work stress, trauma, and the relationship difficulties that can result from those experiences. I am ready to work with you, and those you love to create a more fulfilling life experience.
