Danielle Taylor, LMHC's experience working with the Jewish community

My professional journey has allowed me to engage with individuals from various backgrounds and lifestyles, particularly within the Jewish community. Over the past four years at Achieve Behavioral Health in Monsey, I've immersed myself in serving the diverse Jewish communities in the vicinity. Through this experience, I've gained valuable insights into addressing a wide array of issues and assisting individuals in achieving their diverse goals.

Beyond my professional engagement, I've also resided in two of the most prominent Jewish singles communities—namely, the Upper West Side and Washington Heights in New York City—for several years during my dating years. This firsthand experience has equipped me with a deep understanding of the intricacies of these communities, allowing me to assist individuals in navigating the unique challenges and opportunities presented in the realm of Jewish dating.
