Kaylene Graffitti, LCSW

Kaylene Graffitti is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and a clinical therapist at Sustainable Wellness. She has received specialized training in trauma-informed care and currently provides individual therapy and group sessions for adults, teens, and children at Sustainable Wellness. 

Kaylene graduated with her Master of Social Work (MSW) degree from Adelphi University in 2018. She completed her first MSW internship at an outpatient domestic violence agency where she discovered her passion for helping adults, teens and children who have experienced traumatic events. After graduation, Kaylene continued to work in an outpatient clinic and a domestic violence shelter. During this time, she worked with clients of all ages who have experienced intimate partner violence, family violence, sexual assault, abuse as a child, and other complex traumas. In recent years, she also developed a specialty in working with parents of children with special needs. 

When working with clients, Kaylene integrates a variety of approaches into her treatment. She prefers to take a strengths-based, client-centered approach while also blending Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), CBT techniques, systems theory, psychoeducation, and of course, trauma-informed care. 

In her free time Kaylene enjoys traveling, hiking, kayaking, reading, and spending time with her Chihuahua, Mila.
