In Person
Scott Barvainis is a compassionate Clinical Social Worker and Therapist who recognizes the interconnected experiences of self, authenticity, identity, regulation, and relationships as vital components of therapy. He engages with his clients—ranging from preteens and children to teenagers and adults—in an empathic, challenging, supportive, and relational manner, guiding them towards life changes and the development of tailored coping skills. Employing a relational, psychoanalytic, psychodynamic, and attachment perspective, Scott takes a holistic view of each individual. He also offers comprehensive child assessments to evaluate the impact of the COVID pandemic on developmental milestones. Additionally, Scott utilizes the Neurosequential Model of Therapeutics (NMT), which provides a developmental, neurobiological, and traumatological perspective, enabling a thorough understanding of his patients' neurodevelopmental, psychological, and social functioning. Through an integration of a neuropsychoanalytic developmental lens, a biopsychosocial assessment framework, and psychodynamic psychotherapy, Scott emphasizes the complex and overlapping ways in which minds, emotions, neurobiological processes, and social relationships shape personal experiences in the world.
