ABOUT ME
Hi! I am Tsiona Cohen, a licensed and certified clinical social worker (LCSW-C) in Maryland. As a teenager, I volunteered in a nursing home. I was inspired by the senior population and the phenomenon of aging. So, I embarked on a journey to get my master’s degree in Social Work, with a specialization in aging, from the University of Maryland.
During this time, I interned at the Maryland School for the Blind. There, I learned that I enjoyed working with people of all ages with varying disabilities. I helped their high school seniors transition out of school into the real world.
I graduated with my degree and went on to work exclusively with the older adult population for nearly 15 years. Since 2017, I have returned to working with individuals across the lifespan with a variety of medical issues and disabilities, particularly high-functioning adults with mild cognitive disabilities such as down-syndrome or autism.
These unique experiences have solidified my passion for helping people navigate their lives. Life can truly be a maze. But, I am committed to embracing, empowering, and guiding my clients to their best selves and their best lives.
I am a board-approved supervisor with the Maryland Board of Social Work Examiners and a Certified Case Manager. With 20+ years of experience under my belt, a compassion for people, and a drive to provide life-changing support, I welcome you with an open heart.
