Thomas Agostino, LMSW
I pursued my education in mental health after learning of the difference it can make in individual’s lives. I’ve witnessed the destruction that a mind in turmoil can bring to itself, and those around it, and I’ve seen the change and resilience that can be fostered in those that are shown the proper attention and care. Whether the cause of this turmoil is something transient and fleeting, or pervasive and long lasting, a difference can be made in those who wish to see improvement.
Much of my training and education was obtained through Fordham’s Graduate School of Social Services, however my pursuit of this knowledge traces back farther in my life. Through Fordham University I was able to earn my Masters of Social Work, and have since become a Licensed Master of Social Work with New York State.
I’ve learned a myriad of approaches to the therapeutic process, and have recognized the value of their intersection and integration to each client’s unique journey through their own mind. Those processes include traditional psychotherapeutic approaches, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and dialectic behavioral therapy (DBT) to name a few. In my past I pursued work and knowledge in creative arts therapies, and still hold a passion for this form of practice. More recently I’ve focused on my work with anxieties, depression, and phobias, which tend to benefit the most from a CBT focus.
