Neil Steinert , LCSW

Neil Steinert is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in New Jersey with 13 years of clinical experience. He combines practical therapy models with a focus on relationships, identity, and life transitions, supporting people who are navigating anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, relationship challenges, parenting concerns, and a broad range of intimacy and sexual-health topics.

He works with people across the LGBT community and has experience with consensual kink, BDSM, polyamory, and non-monogamous relationship structures. His clinical toolkit includes cognitive behavioral techniques, attachment-focused work, mindfulness practices, solution-focused strategies, and motivational interviewing, applied in ways that highlight a person’s existing strengths and teach new coping skills. He also speaks openly about appropriate therapeutic uses of plant medicines such as MDMA, cannabis, and psilocybin.

Originally from Utah, he moved to New Jersey in 1999 for university, where he later raised a family. He has personal experience with divorce and brings that perspective to work around separation, blended-family issues, and family-of-origin concerns. Outside of practice, he enjoys vegetarian cooking, rock climbing, backpacking, yoga, and exploring local cuisine. As an LCSW - a licensed professional trained in clinical social work - he integrates clinical training with lived experience to support clients through change and healing.
