Meet Dr. Jennifer Bakal

I have a doctorate in clinical psychology and I have two masters degrees, one in Social Work and the other one in psychology. I am a graduate of New York University, New School University and Walden University. Having 20 years of experience, I have treated most age groups with a range of issues including depression, anxiety, trauma, addiction, eating disorders, school and work related stress, relationship issues, family issues, bereavement issues, gender identity issues and obsessive compulsive disorder.

My focus is to start where my client is and to provide a safe space for my clients to feel comfortable in sharing their thoughts and feelings without judgement. My treatment modalities include cognitive behavioral therapy, positive psychology, acceptance commitment therapy, attachment therapy, family systems therapy, strength focused therapy and dialectical behavior therapy. I provide individual, couples and family therapy.

I understand it can be difficult taking the first step by attending your first therapy session. I am empathic and I will try to make you feel at ease as we explore your issues together and formulate goals to treat your issues.
