My name is Ofra Markowitz and I'm a licensed clinical social worker specializing in individual, couples and family therapy.

I have worked with adolescent children and adults in inpatient psychiatric units, school settings, and currently In private practice.

My approach to therapy

Currently, I am working with a broad range of clients. Amongst my areas of expertise are childhood Trauma, Depression, Anxiety, PTSD, Eating Disorders, Marital conflicts, Divorce, Loss and Grief, Gender issues, Obsessive-Compulsive (OCD) and more. I am a dynamic, CBT, solution-focused, psychodynamic therapist, who promotes self-care and mindfulness.
