InspireAmindTM was created to meet the needs of individuals, 

families, teens, and children in a private practice setting by 

clinical social worker Marcy Abramsky.

My Guiding Ethical Principles: are to meet people's needs. Whatever issue (whether we find it together or it is known from the start) that is impacting daily life for someone, it is my duty to support them, and help guide them or their family, through the process of intervention to reach a common goal.

This guiding principle is doing what is ethically right for the parties involved to meet each of their needs in terms of structure of sessions and cost. If individual goals exist, then we work toward what would be the best "fit" and if need be, meet separately. I consider myself, to provide trained professional care but cost is something that I look at as an ethical piece, as it applies to supporting others. I always do my best to provide quality care within this competitive market, the most affordable way that I can.

A specialty of mine is preteens, adolescents and parenting. After numerous years in schools, and agencies serving this age group, I have a "toolkit" of knowledge that I work from. As every situation is different, another guiding principle for me, is that every CHILD is different. Not every adolescent that displays a behavior issue is the same. nor can you say it is due to the same cause Since there are many different reasons for each, and  everyone has a different history and present life, there are alternate ways to help. 

Lastly. if you have ever met me, I do not believe in the word NEVER! I believe in encouragement, challenges (for the correct reasons), the most positive mindset, pride, and even if many of those must be learned; I now know that they are imperative to moving forward in my own life, and in improving the lives of others.

Sincerely, 

Owner & Clinical Director,

Marcy Abramsky, LCSW.

As the Owner,  I was mindful of elements, vital to the processes of change and motivation. I live by perseverance, clarity, strength, and value. My own personal definition of success stems from those words.

Clarity and Skill Development are key factors in assessing and managing the twists and turns we go through in life.

Goals of

counseling private practice

and

consulting practice, programs and national resource "FB" group "give it some thought"  

by, M.. Abramsky, lCSW

Our age, environment, school, work, economic status, cultural background, and present conditions or stressors within our society have a tremendous impact on our view, of what level a life situation, may fall under.  Our ability to deal with challenges in life can decrease under certain conditions. If we are coping with illness, loss, a past history of trauma, or even a similar situation.  The seriousness of the crisis, duration, sounds and result, can change our perception for a long  period of time; if not indefinitely.  

The increasing in trend in school safety, and violence from grade school, through the University setting highlights these issues.  Coupled with concerts, or crowded venues, vacation goers around the globe, are experiencing the reality of a different world.  Fear and anxiety are becoming more prevalent, for some.  Others, in comparison, may cope by ignoring things, to keep life as it was, as their coping skill. However, as is the extreme with anything, feeling too overwhelmed can leave you unable to move forward, while denying how important it is to protect your own  wellness, and that of your family, employees, and community, can leave us vulnerable and unsafe.  Safety plans that WORK, in ALL realms (EMOTIONAL, SOCIAL PHYSICAL and ENVIRONMENTAL) are key, to addressing our new need as a society.   Appropriate assessments, tools that provide increasing skills to monitor, alert, intervene and ultimately, improve the overall safety and functioning of every environment for daily functioning, can be critical, to supporting our communities and individual members within them.

When the characteristics are ingrained in daily procedures, one outcome, is trust. As a result of people trusting one another more, there is less turnover, higher job satisfaction and more effort. When roles are understood and supported,  emergencies will almost always be handled better; communication is better,  the team in sync, and functions better. 

While at a job, or as a student, a number of things can happen that we never expect. Some of these can impact our civil rights or even become criminal cases. These can have further consequences if we are not supported by our job or don't feel safe or comfortable going into the work environment anymore.  Changing perceptions, while living in the real world, is a difficult thing to grasp.  If you have been witness, or victim to these situations, including, 9/11, trauma from Military duty, past abuse or you’ve been in areas that have been inflicted with surges of violence, in recent years, you have a lot to juggle emotionally.  If you feel that you have been through issues that demand, more direction or  non-legal advocacy,  prior to determining next steps, InspireAmindTM, is available to you.  Here, to assist you in thinking through all of your options, and understnding your criminal and civil rights, you will understand the the type of professionals that exist,  for you to contact.  It can be lonely, with no direction and a host of emotions.

Later, you will understand how I assist people through a wider scope in their lives, and utilize this view to  assist them in reaching their goals! For now.. just know, my vision never ended there! 

InspireAmindTM, (the idea for programs and name) ​was developed out of necessity, as an entity to reach people, and accomplish  all I can, in tandem with schools, businesses, and other vendors as a change agent.  Staying focused on issues that I am passionate about, has never been an issue, no matter what goes on in my own life. Especially today, with my strengths in the very areas that are relevant to today's social policies!   I am never "burnt out" from this profession or "done" with my work! 

Outside of my clinical social work in schools, my professional and non professional experiences a parent, and part of a family unit, have taught me a lot about practical methods of parenting. My role in the school. in devoting my time to school field trips, classroom teaching, dances and facilitating other events have shaped my creativity and ability to have fun, and not take myself too seriously.  I have also been lucky to have had the exposure to other work environments in my own and different fields.  From medical office settings, hotel & restaurant management, film/television and (journalism) to co-owner of a small business, (creating, marketing and selling products with a partner) I learned how much hard work goes into a business, which gave me an understanding of why businesses are so careful with their money.  Attending Baruch School for Public Administration, I began to learn about not-for-profit organizations. However, it has been very important to me to learn about how both large and small companies work.  Larger Software, Hardware, Accounting and Finance; some medium and some fortune 500 companies, and how they operate. From product to sales, legal and contracts, these industries, including organizations with remote employees;  are constantly looking for ways to keep costs down, while motivating their employees and looking for solutions unique to their setting. 

Across all settings, schools and organizations, there is a common denominator; reliance on varying departments or other people. The demand for the service, costs associated with maintaining a quality of product or service, checking it against the competitors, or knowing whether you have everything your constituents, feel you should.  InspireAmindTM is here, to assist you in a change of mindset that gears you,  your school, or company, toward the future and guides you through the challenges of today, to meet your vision.  This not only keeps your "product" (curriculum, goods, etc. ) relevant to society, but your workplace, motivating and safe.

Offering your leadership team,  counselors/ HR teachers, (any type of employee), students,  parents ( any type of community) and consumers, a re-energized look at your organization. This shows you are modernizing your inside to go with what you are displaying (on social media etc.) or selling, on the outside. You are improving people's lives and safety from the inside of your organization to the outside, not only with your product (the end result).   I believe in this change from the " COMMUNITY CHANGE FROM THE INSIDE, OUT"​(Abramsky, 2018)

At the end of the day...many things will never make sense to all people !

 I truly believe that the closer you can get to a shared vision the better. It is with the greater frequency and consistency of the implementation of a noteworthy idea, the higher the change,, for a positive outcome. 

The only reason to desire the byproduct of this (recognition of its worth) is to continue the use of this idea, to continue to see progress!

I have used a multitude of styles in my work, and created a "formula" that I adjust, and works for many people.  This can be taught and live on in your environment, and, you can start your OWN REVOLUTION of increased productivity, strengthen the professional and positive attitude shown by your talent, and give an overall optimistic outlook, to your school or business. By doing this you can inspire others and your community, and they can , in turn inspire others! 

InspireAmindTM  brings you personal service, whether in a private practice setting, or at your school, or business from a licensed, clinically trained mental health professional, certified administrator and consultant.  Based upon your needs, all the resources, discussed will be tailored to your needs.  You will be furnished with solutions planned for you, to successfully  implement in your setting.
