About George

George Torres is a licensed clinical social worker practicing in New York with 24 years of experience. He focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, anger, and depression. He approaches each person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion.

He encourages people to take small steps toward a more fulfilling life. He uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques such as cognitive behavioral methods and mindfulness to address symptoms and daily challenges. Sessions are shaped to each person’s needs and goals rather than following a fixed script.

Background and approach

George works with concerns that include trauma and abuse, coping with life changes, grief, sleep problems, parenting strain, career questions, and self-esteem issues. He also offers support around bipolar disorder, ADHD, and first responder issues. Conversations cover practical coping skills and problem-solving alongside emotional processing.

George adapts pace and focus so people can try strategies and see what helps them in everyday life. Sessions aim to clarify goals, reduce distressing symptoms, and build routines that support better mood and functioning. He will talk through options and revise plans as progress is made.

People who want an approachable, steady clinician who emphasizes practical skills and respect may find his style helpful. For those ready to start, the process begins with a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a session that fits availability. He offers several online formats to make participation easier for people with busy or unpredictable schedules.

What George works with

Everything George lists, in the therapist's own terms. Anger is the reason this directory exists; the rest tells you what usually sits alongside it in George's practice.

How his approaches work online

George uses evidence-based techniques such as cognitive behavioral methods and mindfulness in online sessions. Cognitive behavioral methods focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety, depression, and anger. Mindfulness teaches simple awareness and breathing practices to help reduce reactivity and improve sleep and mood.

Finding the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will talk with each person about their symptoms, goals, and preferences and then try techniques that feel useful. Plans can be adjusted over time based on what is helping and what is not, so people take an active role in shaping their work together.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different circumstances. Video is useful for deeper conversations and skill practice. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in fits the day. Live chat and text messaging allow brief updates, check-ins, or coaching between longer sessions and can be convenient for busy schedules.
