Hi, I'm Dr. Allegra Borghese. I'm passionate about helping people connect to their innate resources for healing and making meaning.

In addition to my doctorate from Fordham University, my training includes work in psychiatric hospitals, VA hospitals, addiction and eating disorder facilities, college counseling centers, and communities clinics.

At our sessions, we'll be using a blend of two powerful techniques: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Solutions-Oriented Brief Treatment (SOBT). CBT helps us understand how your thoughts affect your feelings and behaviors, while SOBT focuses on finding practical solutions to the challenges you're facing. Together, we'll work on both managing your current struggles and building skills to navigate future ones. It's about finding the balance between understanding what's going on and taking action to make positive changes in your life."

I am Bilingual/Bicultural and have over 28 years experience treating Individuals and Couples. Conflicts impeding communication and resolution of self-destructive behaviors are typical concerns raised in therapy. Clients often are looking for new strategies to help cope with life's changing circumstances and to remove obstacles preventing growth. To explore these issues, a safe and confidential environment must be established. I am dedicated to working with care, compassion and respect for my clients throughout the therapeutic process.

We all play different roles in life, and sometimes these roles can ask so much of us that little is left for ourselves. This can lead to feeling overwhelmed and burned out. Counseling can help ease these feelings by offering a safe space to unpack and sort through even the biggest emotions.

My counseling approach is integrative. I will incorporate drama therapy as well, where we will use a bit of creativity to help make change.

I view clients from a holistic perspective and consider the impact of health and wellness as an important part of our therapeutic work.
