Welcome,

My name is Dallana Contreras, LCSW. As a clinical social worker, my practice is grounded in a generalist framework that integrates the person-in-environment perspective with evidence-based and culturally responsive approaches. I have wide range of experience in school based supports, crisis teams, mental health outpatient and hospital settings.

I chose social work because I believe in the power of human connection and the ability of people to transform their lives when given support, respect, and opportunity.

PLEASE READ BEFORE BOOKING, thank you. I am a board-certified Psychiatrist (medical doctor) providing virtual care throughout NY and PA. I taper medications. This means my patients want to reduce or stop psychiatric medications, and I guide them through that process at a safe pace. My 30-minute follow-up sessions include supportive counsel, though I do not offer weekly one-hour therapy. Many of my patients also work with a therapist. My understanding of suffering and hope is rooted in a Christ-centered faith, which shapes the wisdom and care I bring to my work.
