About Erez

Erez Adan is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) practicing in New York with three years of professional experience. He focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, career challenges, depression, and coping with life changes. He approaches each person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. Taking a first step toward feeling better can feel hard, and he aims to make that step feel manageable.

In sessions he listens carefully and tailors conversation to fit each person’s situation. He helps people talk through relationship worries such as communication, commitment, infidelity, and jealousy. He also works with issues tied to attachment, abandonment, control, and patterns like avoidant or dependent personality traits.

He supports people dealing with guilt, shame, impulsivity, isolation, emptiness, and family-related problems. Career stress and major life transitions are also common topics he helps people sort through. His focus is practical: identifying small changes that can improve daily life and relationships.

Expect a compassionate, down-to-earth approach where the therapist and client set goals together. Plans are adapted as progress or needs change. He emphasizes straightforward conversation and actionable steps rather than jargon.

People who want a respectful, steady listener who helps untangle emotions and behaviors may find his style useful. He provides care in English and practices as an LCSW in New York.

Approaches that address relationships and everyday stress

Evidence-based therapeutic techniques focus on understanding patterns and building practical skills. One common approach helps people notice how thoughts and behaviors keep problems going, then practices new ways of responding to reduce anxiety and improve mood. This can be useful for stress, depression, and impulse-related concerns.

Another approach looks closely at attachment and relationship patterns. It helps people recognize how early experiences shape current expectations and reactions in close relationships, and it offers strategies to improve communication, manage jealousy, and repair trust after infidelity.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their goals and preferences. Treatment plans are adjusted as needs change so the approach fits the person, not the other way around.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, whether you need shorter check-ins, sessions outside typical work hours, or the ability to join from different locations. Licensed professionals can often adapt pacing and homework to suit everyday routines, helping therapy feel relevant and manageable.
