Esther Gross

Change for the better begins here. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I have over twenty years of experience helping individuals, college students, and couples lead healthier and more fulfilling lives. I provide premarital and marital counseling and work with concerns such as anxiety, panic attacks, OCD, depression, loss, and relationship challenges. My goal is to create a space where you feel genuinely accepted, supported, and understood as we begin the healing process together.

I believe a strong therapeutic relationship is the foundation for meaningful change. My style is warm, collaborative, and structured. I draw from evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to help clients gain insight, identify triggers, and develop practical skills for everyday life. Together, we will build on your strengths, work step-by-step toward your goals, and replace unhelpful patterns with healthier, more rewarding ways of relating to yourself and others.

In our first session, you can expect a warm, supportive, and structured environment where you feel heard and understood. We will discuss what brings you to therapy, explore your goals, and begin identifying practical steps forward.

Together, we will create a plan tailored to your needs, focusing on building coping strategies, increasing self-awareness, and developing tools that promote lasting change.
