Meet your therapist
Todd J. Eckert, LCSW
I'm a New Jersey licensed clinical social worker and a graduate of the NYU Silver School of Social Work. I work with adolescents and adults in person and online, creating a trusting, collaborative space through active listening, thoughtful conversation, clear feedback, and an appropriate sense of humor.
My approach is compassionate and straightforward, offering support and direction while helping clients strengthen self-awareness, navigate relationships, and make meaningful changes. I draw from cognitive behavioral, psychodynamic, relational, and person-centered approaches based on individual needs.
