Joyce Baldinucci, JD, MSW, LCSW, LCADC

I understand how painful it is when you feel “stuck” in your relationship - caught in destructive patterns that leave you feeling alone and isolated even when living under the same roof. Using Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), a highly effective couples therapy, I help you to identify the patterns that cause you to be reactive with one another and result in high levels of distress. Once we recognize the patterns, we then build safety and strength in the relationship so that you can access and share your emotions and needs with one another, creating a deeper and more meaningful connection.

In addition to practicing EFT with couples, I work with adults and adolescents seeking help with: substance and behavioral addictions; the effects of trauma; anxiety and depressive disorders; emotional dysregulation; and life transitions. I have been intensively trained in IFS, EMDR and DBT.

I look forward to welcoming you into my practice so that you can begin to find your way back to each other!
