Major Depressive Disorder

“Adina is a conscientious and gifted clinician who has a long and successful career ahead of her. Her obvious intelligence and commitment to the field of psychology go together to make her extremely effective in treating clients in individual psychotherapy. Beyond that, Adina demonstrated clear management skills as the Primary Therapist at New Seasons Recovery, understanding the program policies and making delicate interpretations of these policies to best support patient progress. Adina showed integrity by not being afraid to make 'hard' decisions that would not be popular with the clients, if she believed they would be in the best interest of their growth. She had the difficult role of presenting the Treatment Team's decisions to the clients, and did so with tact and finesse. In the Director's absence, Adina would run the weekly Treatment Team meetings. She showed strong administrative abilities in keeping the meeting focused and making judgements as to what direction the Team meeting should take. While showing respect to all the Team members, she kept the group on task. We all liked it when Adina was in charge. Adina is clear team player. She is open to consulting with the clinical staff outside of Treatment Team, sharing helpful insights and providing emotional support. I recommend Adina without reservation.” March 21, 2009
