Professional statement

Iulian C Ungureanu is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker located in Uniondale, NY. Iulian has 10 years of experience in the mental health field, helping people alleviate their emotional distress and make impactful life changes so they can feel more joyful and fulfilled in their lives. Many of Iulian’s clients feel stuck in the past or overly focused on the future, leaving them unable to be in the present. Their mental health negatively impacts their relationships, including the relationships they have with their partners, children, parents, and friends.

Iulian’s therapy style comes from his humility and ability to get to know clients well, including what makes their experiences unique and understanding their goals for their mental health. He gently guides clients to begin to look at their challenges in a different way so they can gain more perspective. He integrates metaphors and anecdotes into his work with clients to make concepts more relatable, and also incorporates mindfulness practices to teach clients how to slow down and focus on the present. Iulian is a firm believer in a life with boundaries (physical, emotional, mental, spiritual). Iulian also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which are helpful therapy approaches for those who would like to make major changes in the way they react to things emotionally.

Iulian earned a Master’s degree in Social Work from CUNY Hunter College School of Social Work. His goal is to support clients through empathy to achieve self-discovery and to overcome the obstacles holding them back from living in peace.
