Carol Mavronicolas

After a post-graduate fellowship at McLean Hospital, overseen by faculty of the Harvard Medical School, an Externship in family and couples therapy at the Ackerman Institute, I worked in inpatient and outpatient settings at hospitals, where I both treated patients and supervised clinical practice students from the Columbia and Fordham Schools of Social Work. I opened my clinical practice treating individuals and couples in 1997. The areas I have worked on with my patients have included anxiety, depression, poor self esteem among many other issues and my treatment modalities are varied depending on the needs of my patient. My areas of concentration have revolved around anxiety and depression, frequently focusing on fear of failure, low self esteem, difficulty in decision making, inability to concentrate, problems with communication and poor interpersonal relationship skills.
