Hi! I am Jamie Shapiro and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Jersey City, NJ. I am licensed to provide teletherapy for both New Jersey & New York. I received my Bachelors of Science in Human Development and Family Studies from the University of Rhode Island and my Masters of Social Work with a focus in Advanced Clinical Practice from Columbia University School of Social Work. I have a background in providing therapy for individuals and couples as well as facilitating various support groups.
I have years of experience working with young adults and adults who are navigating grief, cancer, chronic illness, and those caring for a loved one with an illness. I have extensive experience as an oncology social worker and also have a certification as a Certified Grief Informed Professional (CGP). I also specialize in working with young adults who are dealing with life transitions and general mental health. My approach combines psychodynamic therapy, solution focused therapy, and strengths based perspective.
