Marcos Garson

I am an LCSW/psychotherapist, licensed in: New Jersey, Florida, & Israel. I have been in practice, for over 36 years. I specialize in treating: anxiety disorders, PTSD, bipolar, depression, adjustment, grief, couple's &/or family issues, substance abuse / addiction, & codependency. Typically, I use a 'cognitive-behavioral' therapeutic orientation & approach. That can frequently include utilizing: behavioral, systemic, narrative, existential, strength & positivity-based, 12-Step &/or other somewhat 'eclectic' clinical techniques.

My overall approach as a CBT practioner is to: engage, bond, evaluate, diagnosis, mutually create a treatment plan / course of actions / therapeutic direction & expectations. Then implement in real-time: with constant revaluation & updating 'treatment plans' with client every 3 - 6 months.

Warmth, ease of engagement, thorough initial assessment 'of presenting issue/s', Summary of 'initial impression/s', & plan going forward, or not...at least one session.
