Michal Shapiro, LICSWClinical Social Work/Therapist, LICSW

About

I am a bilingual clinical social worker/therapist. My passion for working with children and adolescents stems from my years of experience with students in the Newton and Boston school systems. My understanding of the importance for social work has empowered me to continue advocating for and working with marginalized communities, diverse populations, and individuals with learning challenges. My goal as a Multi-Modality Treatment (MMT) clinician is to holistically address the wide range of contributing factors involved in my client’s treatment, including their home, school, and community relationships. I specialize in working with spectrum and trauma-based patients who struggle with depression, anxiety, and a range of externalizing behaviors. I provide integrated, wrap-around MMT care for my clients and their caregivers, helping facilitate an understanding of the student’s combined learning and behavioral challenges.
