Bertha Taillefer, LCSW-R

Bertha Taillefer is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker - Referred (LCSW-R) practicing in New York with 20 years of experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, family conflict, grief and loss, anger, and ADHD. She offers straightforward support for everyday problems and moments when feelings feel bigger than usual.

Her approach is practical and conversational. Sessions focus on clear goals and steps the client can try between meetings. Bertha adapts the pace to what each person needs and prefers, and she uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide the work.

In sessions she listens for patterns that contribute to anger, rising anxiety, or repeated family conflicts. Together with the client she identifies small changes that reduce tension and improve communication. She also helps people make sense of grief and bring structure to days that feel chaotic.

Bertha draws on two decades of clinical experience when clients need strategies for attention and executive function related to ADHD. She breaks down tasks into manageable steps and helps clients build routines that fit their lives.

Her style is direct and respectful. The focus is on practical skills, clearer thinking, and better ways of responding when stress or anger shows up. To begin, the site’s matching questionnaire helps pair someone with her practice and schedule a first session.
