About Perri
Perri Cohen is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in New Jersey with 15 years of clinical experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, parenting concerns, family conflict, and life changes.
She helps people who are coping with adoption or foster care issues, aging and geriatric concerns, caregiving strain, chronic illness or pain, and social anxiety. She also supports people handling guilt, shame, communication problems, midlife shifts, and women’s issues. Sessions focus on practical steps as well as understanding patterns that keep problems repeating.
In sessions she uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to identify clear goals and teach skills you can use between meetings. That can include learning new ways to manage strong feelings, adjusting unhelpful thinking, and trying small behavior changes that reduce daily stress.
Perri describes the work as collaborative. She listens for what is most important to a person, then helps build a plan that fits their life and commitments. The emphasis is on useful tools and steady progress rather than quick fixes.
People who value straightforward, problem-focused work that also addresses deeper patterns may find this approach helpful. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session to see how the plan will look for them.
BHow sessions work
How evidence-based methods translate to online care
Many of the evidence-based techniques Perri uses focus on changing unhelpful thinking and building new habits. Cognitive behavioral approaches break down stressful situations and teach concrete coping skills for anxiety and depression. Mindfulness-informed methods train attention and reduce reactivity, which can help with chronic stress and caregiving strain.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Perri will discuss your goals and preferences, and then suggest methods to try. Decisions about which techniques to use are collaborative and can be adjusted as progress is made.
The practical benefit of remote sessions is fitting meetings into a busy life. Check how session options are currently offered before booking, since formats are not specified here. Many people use remote sessions to make appointments during work breaks, avoid travel time, or have shorter check-ins when energy or bandwidth is limited. Licensed professionals, including therapists, will work with you to shape session length and pacing so it fits your schedule and needs.
