Emily Cruz

LMSW Alana Kaufman, LCSW, P.C.
Specialties: Anxiety, Depression, Trauma, Grief

Introduction

Trying to find help can be frustrating and even terrifying during difficult times. You might have had to push past stigma, criticism, toxic family relationships, or self-doubt to get to this point. Even when depression, life transitions, trauma, or anger have seemed insurmountable, you’re here today, and that takes more strength than you might know. That is why I am here to provide a non-judgmental, validating, and warm space for you to express yourself. My therapeutic approach is insight-oriented and eclectic. I draw from various modalities, such as psychodynamic therapy, narrative therapy, cognitive behavior therapy (CBT), and mindfulness, to meet your specific needs. I support individuals experiencing grief and loss, anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationship issues, and trauma.
