About

What should your client know about you? My name is Dr. Toni Ann Serpe and I have my Doctorate in Psychology. I received both my undergraduate and graduate training in psychology at Hofstra University in NY. I have been working in the field of school and clinical psychology for almost 20 years. My areas of specialty are anxiety disorders, mood disorders (depression), parenting issues, child/adolescent issues, and stress management. What is your approach to therapy? I utilize the principles and theories of Cognitive and Cognitive-Behavioral therapy in my approach to therapy. Additionally, I incorporate Mindfulness and Acceptance-based theory and techniques into my treatment plans in order to provide my patients a full range of effective research based psychological intervention. What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you? As a therapist, I am genuine, and honest and will guide you through your difficulties, however, you must be accountable and motivated to help yourself with my support. I look forward to continuing my career helping others achieve quality of life and improved social-emotional functioning.
