Description:

Dina Waxman, LCSW-R
Licensed Clinical Social Worker


With nearly two decades of experience in the mental health field, I specialize in providing effective therapy for adults seeking to improve their self-esteem and personal growth, reduce symptoms, navigate life transitions, and address marriage and family challenges. Since entering the field in 2005, I have completed thousands of client hours, offering compassionate, results-driven therapy that helps clients make real, lasting changes. My approach is rooted in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), but I take an eclectic approach to therapy, blending multiple therapeutic modalities to tailor treatment to each individual's unique needs.


I also specialize in psychosocial diagnostics and treatment planning for both children and adults. With years of experience in this field, I am often sought out for my expertise as a diagnostician and have completed hundreds of psychosocial assessments for individuals of all ages.


In my early career, I founded, researched, and developed a comprehensive relationship skills and self-awareness course in collaboration with leading mental health professionals, including Rabbi Abraham J. Twerski, MD Zt”l. This foundational experience shaped my ability to help individuals and couples achieve personal growth, deeper understanding, and healthier relationships.


I graduated summa cum laude with a 4.0 GPA in both my Bachelor's and Master's degrees from Touro College, where I was honored as valedictorian. The same commitment to excellence, hard work, and perseverance required to reach these accomplishments is the same approach I take in my work with clients: I don’t believe in my clients merely getting by; I am fully invested in helping each one overcome the obstacles that hold them back, make lasting, real changes, and reach their highest potential to transform their lives for the better.


My approach to therapy is practical, solution-focused, and grounded in Torah values. It blends a balanced, commonsense perspective with a deep sense of empathy and intuitive understanding of my clients' emotions and experiences. Many clients have shared that 'this is the first therapy that actually helped me make lasting changes and feel better after years of trying other approaches.'


If you're looking for a therapist who offers not just insight but also practical solutions for real, meaningful change, I invite you to reach out and look forward to partnering with you on your journey toward living your best life.
