Emmy Acevedo, LCSW

I was born in the Dominican Republic but have spent most of my life in New Jersey. As a mom of two and a pastor's wife, I understand the pressures and seemingly endless expectations that life can bring.

My passion for helping others emerged when I began volunteering as a mentor for disadvantaged children and youth. After my first year of college, I shifted my major from Biotechnology to Humanities & Social Sciences, uncertain of the future but guided by my newfound passion.

Over the past decade, I’ve worked in diverse roles providing me with a broad perspective on client care. I utilize a range of evidence-based practices to address issues like anxiety, depression, trauma, low self-esteem and family conflicts.

I received my masters from Rutgers University and Certification of Trauma Informed Clinical Practice from New York University.
