Meet Yaacov Weiss
Yaacov Weiss, LCSW
As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), I specialize in the treatment of relationship difficulties, anxiety and OCD. My approach incorporates a range of evidence-based therapies, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), and Internal Family Systems (IFS).
I believe that effective therapy requires a combination of present and forward-focused treatments alongside methods that help clients process their past. This is because most issues have origins in past experiences, and therefore addressing these roots is essential for true healing. At the same time, clients need the skills and tools to move forward, making this dual approach highly effective.
Mission & Vision
The practice is goal-oriented, with a focus on moving the client forward in overcoming their current challenges. At the same time, I embrace the belief that "No one cares how much you know until they know how much you care" and therefore building a genuine connection and gaining a true understanding the pain in my clients' hearts is a crucial part of my therapeutic process. This empathy forms the foundation for delivering effective treatment.
My goal is to help clients achieve their best possible outcomes through a comprehensive, empathetic, and evidence-based approach. Thankfully, most clients experience significant improvements early on in therapy and continue to see progress throughout their therapeutic journey
