About Claire McDonough

I have a Masters and Bachelors in Social Work and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in New Jersey. My experience over the past 20 years has been in a variety of mental health settings. I have training in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy as well as several other modalities. I have worked with individuals with Depression, Anxiety, ADHD, Bipolar and many other issues. Therapy can be intimidating and opening up to stranger can be difficult, which is why I feel that building trust from the beginning is important. I will take the time to listen, and treat you with respect while at the same time challenge you to help you achieve your goals. I really enjoy helping people and I hope I can help you.
