Introduction

Hi, my name is Cara Borrero and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Buffalo, NY. I received my Masters in Social Work in 2015 from the University at Buffalo. Since then, I have continued my education through courses and workshops to ensure I have the most up to date therapy models for my clients. This includes CBT, DBT, and EMDR. I also use both a collaborative and trauma-informed approach. Life comes with a variety of challenges, traumas, and roadblocks. I am here to be with you as you navigate your path to mental wellness. I am so glad you have taken that first step of seeking help and look forward to meeting with you! "Don't let this darkness fool you. All lights turned off, can be turned on." - Noah Kahan
