About

Meet Zissel, LCSW – Compassionate Guidance for Your Healing Journey

From a young age, I’ve felt honored by the trust people placed in me to share their stories and life experiences. This sense of connection and service led me to a career in mental health, where I strive to offer clients a safe and supportive space to navigate their challenges.

I hold a master’s degree from the Wurzweiler School of Social Work, graduating Summa Cum Laude, and have advanced training in a range of therapeutic modalities, including Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS). I’ve also pursued specialized training in Integrative Somatic Therapy, Play Therapy and Mindfulness.

My therapeutic approach is client-centered, psychodynamic and trauma-informed. My training as a social worker guides me in recognizing the broader context of your experiences, and I am committed to addressing the whole person, helping to ensure that your unique needs are met both inside and outside the therapy room, whether they are emotional, financial, social, or practical. By connecting you with the resources and support you need, I aim to help you thrive in every aspect of your life.

I’ve had the privilege of working with a diverse range of clients— from children as young as 2 years old to Holocaust survivors—always meeting them where they are in their journey. I believe healing begins with feeling understood, heard, and supported, and I am here to help you find your path to inner peace and lasting change.
