Evan Farrell, LCSW

Evan Farrell is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in New Jersey with five years of professional experience. He works with adults on stress, anxiety, addictions, family concerns, low self-esteem, depression, relationship and intimacy issues, grief, anger, career questions, bipolar disorder, and other life transitions.

He favors straightforward conversation and practical skills. Sessions look at how thoughts and behaviors link to feelings, and then build simple steps to change patterns that cause strain. Evan uses approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and existential ideas to guide those steps.

In sessions he focuses on strengths and clear goals rather than labels or long histories. That can mean setting short exercises, practicing new communication moves, or tracking situations that trigger strong reactions. The aim is to help people notice what keeps problems going and try small experiments to change them.

Evan also addresses challenges tied to attachment, abandonment, blended family dynamics, body image, codependency, and nontraditional sexual cultures like BDSM and kink. He works with mood conditions and difficulties such as dissociation, coping with separation, and disruptive mood dysregulation concerns.

Conversations are collaborative and paced to what the person needs. He helps clients plan next steps, whether that is brief skills practice, ongoing therapy, or pairing therapy with other supports in their life.
