Hello! My name is Amy Kryszak and I am a licensed clinical social worker. I am actively licensed in New York, New Jersey, and Florida to provide therapy to my clients. My approach to therapy is an eclectic approach. I like to tailor the therapeutic approach to what the client needs.
My approach
I have experience in cognitive behavioral therapy, cognitive processing therapy, as well as components of motivational interviewing and goal setting, as well as dialectical behavioral therapy.
My focus
I am comfortable treating clients with a variety of goals including managing depression and anxiety symptoms, working on behavioral change to manage ADHD symptoms, and goal setting to improve stress management including in the areas of work and relationships.
My communication style
My tone and communication style are very supportive. I think of challenging my clients in a way that makes them feel confident in their ability to take the steps to be able to make the changes that they are looking for.
My journey to mental healthcare
My journey as a therapist started when I was young. I always enjoyed meeting people and helping others. I grew up in a large family and found that I enjoyed being a help and support to others.
My goals for you
I like to have my clients set realistic and small, attainable goals. I want the small wins to serve as motivation to keep going since you will be able to easily see the successes.
My first session with you
In our first session, you can expect to share what you feel comfortable with. I want to get to know you and learn about your situation so your treatment can be customized to where you are at and craft the goals to where you want to be.
