Jenniesha Figueroa Torres

I’m a bilingual Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a passion to serve others. My education has guided me to be an advocate of mental health and understand the issues impacting society, communities, family and individuals. I have experience providing services in residential, hospice and outpatient settings. I’m trained in Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Collaborative Problem Solving Approach. I’m also a Trauma Based Relational Intervention Practitioner. In short this means that during sessions we would use attachment and relationship approaches to understand reactions and behaviors, and at the same time develop new skills. The population I serve are children, teenagers, adults, elderly and immigrant population. I’m culturally sensitive, empathetic and driven to guide you to reach your potential.

My therapy approach is focused on creating a safe space where you could feel listened and validated. I have experience in crisis intervention, adjustment, anger management, grief and loss, anxiety, depression, trauma, self-esteem issues, behavioral issues, interpersonal and family conflicts.

What you can expect to take away from sessions with me is that together we will collaborate to develop the strategies to build a stronger and healthier version of your self. I believe in empowering individuals with the necessary coping mechanisms utilizing a variety of evidence based approaches that fulfill your individual needs to meet your goal through therapy.
