My name is Florence Chirichiello and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I received my MSW from the University of Stony Brook and have enjoyed being a Social Worker for the past 24 years. I utilize a strength's perspective and specialize in CBT, Solution Focused Brief Therapy, Crisis Intervention, and Task- Centered Intervention.
My specialty is working with children and families and I offer a laid back approach in developing a trusting working relationship in which clients feel safe and comfortable to open up and share their vulnerabilities. I have the ability to speak at the level of my client and truly connect. I have worked with various populations including individuals dealing with anxiety, depression, adjustment disorders, ADHD, grief and loss, and relationship problems.
I take a person centered approach which allows the client to be in control and set the pace at their comfort level.
