I hold an initial consultation to listen and explore what brings you to counseling. Going forward we will identify your therapeutic needs so that I can create the best treatment solutions for you. It's about giving you the best care and developing an authentic and trusting relationship together. Please call (347) 719-3027 or email mail@gretchenlord.com to schedule an initial consultation.

Twenty six years of clinical practice in New York City has provided me with a unique therapeutic perspective. My early years as a family therapist has been featured in New York Magazine 3/17/97, “Child Support” and in the book, Solomon’s Sword: Two Families and the Children the State Took Away: Michael Shapiro, 1999. My work in program development and group work is contained in two published articles in the Social Work with Groups Journal, 2012 & 2017.
