Jennifer Nudo, LCSW, PMH-C

People new to therapy commonly wonder how long treatment will take and whether it will be helpful. Many people also worry about spending months in therapy without seeing positive changes. To address these concerns, we will work together to establish shared goals and a plan for your care to ensure our work together meets your unique needs. In my practice, I provide both short term (3-6 months) and long term treatment. My goal is that all my clients will see significant positive impacts of participating in therapy within the first three months. From that point, the decision whether to pursue long or short term treatment is determined by your specific goals and preferences. Short term treatment is generally focused on increasing your understanding of your current challenges, adopting new coping strategies, and accessing needed support. Longer term treatment is appropriate for people who seek to develop an in-depth understanding of themselves and their relationships, benefit from ongoing therapist support, or who are coping with long standing stressors or challenges. No matter the duration of treatment, we will evaluate your progress regularly to make sure therapy is helping to address your symptoms and supporting you in living the life you want to lead.
