What's your experience with clients with anxiety?
As a therapist in private practice, the bulk of my work has been with clients who struggle with anxiety and depression. The thoughts, experiences, and feelings that come with anxiety and depression are palpable and often times when we are struggling through it alone, it can feel like there is no light at the end of the tunnel. Individual therapy is a great tool to address these challenges. In my work with those struggling with anxiety, panic, and depression my client explore the root of their experience as well as learn and practice new ways to cope and respond to their triggers.
Hi, I'm Kalisha Crone and I’m a licensed clinical social worker who is passionate about supporting communities of color and helping all of my clients improve their overall well-being. My life’s journey paired with my education has afforded me countless learning opportunities that have shaped me into the therapist that I am today. I use techniques such as mindfulness, client-centered therapy, and cognitive behavioral interventions to create a safe space for my clients to process, reflect, learn, grow and eventually go forth on their own. I believe in the power of resilience and I understand that in sharing our stories and receiving the validation that we deserve we can heal the hurt and trauma we have carried for far too long. I care about you, your family, and your story. You can trust that I will treat you with respect, dignity and compassion in every interaction, while maintaining the highest standards for integrity and ethics. Please feel free to contact me for a free consult to see if we are a good fit!

How do you work with clients with anxiety?
My approach to working with clients with anxiety involves a holistic understanding of their symptoms and individual circumstances. I prioritize building a therapeutic relationship grounded in empathy, validation, and active listening, allowing clients to feel heard and understood. Evidence-based treatments for anxiety disorders, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), and mindfulness-based interventions, are integrated into treatment plans based on the client's preferences and needs. These modalities help clients identify and challenge negative thought patterns, confront avoidance behaviors, and develop effective coping skills to manage anxiety symptoms. In addition to psychotherapy, medication management may be considered for clients with moderate to severe anxiety, with a focus on selecting the most appropriate and effective pharmacological interventions while minimizing side effects and risks.
Greetings! I'm Dr. Joshua Werblin, a dedicated psychiatrist with a compassionate approach to care. My practice is a sanctuary for individuals of all ages seeking mental wellness. My journey began at The University of Chicago, where I delved into the fundamentals of society and its utopian ideals. I took a somewhat circuitous path from there, working in different fields for nearly a decade before starting to study for my medical degree (M.D.) at Tulane University School of Medicine. During those ten years, I worked variously as a biophysicist, wooden boatbuilder, IT support, astrophysics technical work, and an Auxiliary NYPD officer in Harlem. I completed a Pediatrics Internship at Tulane University, followed by a narrower focus in General Psychiatry Residency training, also at Tulane. I then received subspecialty fellowship training in Child & Adolescent Psychiatry at Seattle Children's Hospital/University of Washington, followed by the acquisition of Addiction Psychiatry sub-specialization some years later. My career has been diverse, including roles as an Inpatient Psychiatrist, Consult-Liaison Psychiatrist, and several Outpatient Psychiatry positions in New York, Florida, and Maryland. More than half of my career has been spent serving the most underserved and marginalized populations, such as youth and women rescued from the sex trade, runaway youth, homeless families, LGBTQIA++ populations, and undocumented immigrants. Since 2019, I've been proudly serving as 'The Feelings Doctor' in my solo virtual practice, offering psychiatric care for children, adolescents, adults, and those facing addiction challenges. My commitment to you is simple: to provide empathetic, individualized, evidence-based care that supports your unique journey toward mental health wellness, whether or not you choose to use medications along the way. Let's work together to navigate life's challenges and embrace the path to healing and fulfillment.
