Xiomara Borja

Hi! my name is Xiomara Borja. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based out of Queens, NY with over 10 years of experience providing direct clinical services to adults, adolescents and children with mental health and substance use challenges.

My primary approach to therapy is using evidenced based therapy such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT). CBT focuses on challenging and changing cognitive distortions, improving emotional regulation, and developing coping skills that targets current problems. DBT skills focus on distress tolerance, acceptance and mindful awareness.

If you are seeking a psychotherapist, I imagine you or a love one are wanting to find a space to work on improving mood, manage daily life stressors, adjust to major life transitions or process traumas. You can expect a safe and welcoming space where together we can identify and address the stressors impacting your life and build on your natural coping mechanisms to meet your desired treatment goals.
