Steven Van Schaick, LCSW

Steven Van Schaick is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and trauma specialist with 10 years of experience helping people navigate significant mental health challenges. He developed a practice that brings care directly to clients, building his career in residential treatment centers, in-patient psychiatric settings, and in-home counseling for high-risk families, which shaped his direct, action-oriented approach to therapy.

He focuses on working with people facing depression, anxiety and panic, relationship and family difficulties, parenting challenges, anger and mood disorders, addictions and process addictions, trauma and abuse, eating concerns, self-esteem struggles, bipolar disorder, and major life transitions. Additional areas of focus include communication problems, control issues, forgiveness, obsessions and compulsions, panic disorder, post-traumatic stress, self-harm, and social anxiety.

Steven integrates multiple evidence-based methods rather than relying on a single modality, and he tailors treatment to the needs of each person. He prefers work that moves with purpose and pace, reflecting experience with clients who need focused, efficient intervention rather than drawn-out processes. His practice emphasizes addressing both psychological and practical elements of healing, and he values a professional relationship built on trust and confidence in his clinical care.
