About Jessica Detor, LCSW

As a licensed clinical social worker, I understand the courage it takes to embark on a journey of self-discovery and healing. Drawing from my own personal experiences and extensive professional training, I firmly believe in the interconnectedness of physical and mental health. When our mental well-being needs improvement, often our physical health activities, eating habits, hydration, and thought patterns could also benefit from adjustment.

My clinical training spans a variety of psychiatric and medical settings in NY and CT, including inpatient behavioral health and medical units, outpatient settings, primary care, and medical/psychiatric emergency departments. I hold a Master's degree in Social Work from Syracuse University and a Master's degree in Health Administration with a focus on Health Management from New York University, with the majority of my clinical training and supervision taking place at Upstate Medical University.

Throughout my career, I have worked with diverse populations from all walks of life, supporting individuals experiencing mild to severe behavioral health symptoms and/or substance abuse. I have extensive experience addressing the comorbidities of mental health and physical health diagnoses, dual diagnoses related to mental health and substance use, preventative care, and post-diagnosis management of chronic illnesses.

I understand the challenges of navigating life's obstacles alone, and I am here to support you. I have witnessed the transformative power of addressing mental health from a holistic perspective, and I am committed to helping you achieve the same positive results.

With over 20 years of experience in behavioral health across various settings, including outpatient behavioral health, primary care offices, inpatient medical and behavioral health units, and psychiatric and medical emergency departments, I bring a wealth of knowledge and expertise to my practice.

My approach to mental health is rooted in a holistic framework, emphasizing the interconnections between physical, social, and emotional well-being. Together, we will work on your tailored and specific needs, keeping your goals and self-care at the center of our collaborative efforts.

I invite you to take the first step towards nurturing your well-being and unlocking your inner strengths. With compassion, understanding, and evidence-based techniques, I am here to guide you on your path to lasting healing and growth.
