I hold a master's degree in clinical social work from the Wurzweliter School of Social work, NYC.

Hi, my name is YD Goldstein and I'm a clinical psychologist. If you are feeling stuck in life or work, struggling with anxiety, depression, or would like to learn more about yourself, I'd love to schedule a consult with you and speak to you about your therapy treatment options. Mental health struggles can be debilitating, but they don't have to hold you back any longer. I work with children, teens, and adults.
I have a background which includes many years of Post-Graduate education, knowledge and experience providing mental health care to those who need help dealing with a wide range of mental health issues or concerns. Whether you desire improved and better quality relationships, need help with feelings, with issues of daily life, or with reaching your goals, I can help you gain emotional health - the ability to love, work and play as you wish.
I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, with over 15 years of Post-Graduate education and training in Modern Psychoanalysis at the Philadelphia School of Psychoanalysis, which allows me to listen and respond to your needs, through special understanding of unconscious processes that affect the human mind as a whole.
My specialty is in using Talk Therapy as a treatment for relieving mental and emotional distress. Whatever your diagnosis, difficulty, age, finances, or emotional needs, I help you with the process of talking to solve conflicts which block you from accomplishing what you want in life.
Did you experience trauma in childhood or adolescence? Are you experiencing stress, anxiety, fear, or depression? Do you feel misunderstood by others, judged, or find it challenging to connect with others? Therapy is a safe place where you can understand yourself better and learn to cope with these thoughts and feelings, which may be interfering with your happiness, health, and relationships.
People come to therapy for many reasons. Some are struggling with anxiety, OCD, stress, or feeling emotionally overwhelmed. Others are navigating life transitions such as starting college, entering adulthood, changing careers, becoming a parent, caring for aging parents, or moving through perimenopause and menopause. Sometimes there isn’t a single crisis. Instead, there is a growing sense that life feels harder than it should, or that old ways of coping are no longer working.
I work with teens, young adults, and adults who are trying to manage the demands of everyday life while carrying a great deal beneath the surface. Many are bright, capable, and caring people who find themselves overthinking, emotionally exhausted, distracted, stuck in patterns of worry, or struggling to make space for their own needs. Together, we work to better understand what is keeping them stuck, develop practical tools, and create meaningful changes that support a more balanced and fulfilling life.
I specialize in adolescents, young adults, and adults. I help develop coping strategies using DBT and CBT skills that produce successful outcomes. As a teacher in the public school systems for over 25 years, I have worked with learning difficulties and social emotional issues caused by all the environmental stressors our generation has to manage.
Most of my clinical training is focused in modalities proven effective for individuals suffering from Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). I am an Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy and Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) certified therapist. Further, I completed CBT for PTSD therapy training.
I am also a member of the National Association of Social Workers (NASW), New Jersey Chapter.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 20 years of experience in a variety of fields (psychiatric screening, infectious disease case management, school based individual and family therapy services). I've worked successfully with individuals, couples and families, and I am a dedicated, compassionate and attentive clinician with an innate ability to connect to people.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an Anxiety Therapist in Elizabeth
Searching for therapists in Elizabeth starts with finding someone whose training fits what you want support with. Therapists may list specialties such as anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, grief, or life transitions. As you compare options, look for experience that matches your needs, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed care, or support for couples and families. A therapist’s profile can also show how they structure sessions and what you can expect from their approach.
Elizabeth is a smaller city, so local in-person appointment options may be more limited than in larger nearby markets. Virtual therapy can expand your choices while still connecting you with a therapist licensed in New Jersey. You may want to compare appointment times, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation before the first session. Reading bios closely can help you understand communication style, areas of focus, and whether the therapist’s availability fits your schedule.
Therapy in Elizabeth can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs, and Headway helps make that information clear before you book. You can search for Elizabeth therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, enter your insurance details to see estimated costs, review profiles, and book directly when you’re ready.
