Mariann Arcari Rubin, LCSW
About Me

I am a licensed clinical social worker serving the Phoenix, Arizona metropolitan area with over 20 years of experience.  I utilize a Humanistic approach in working with clients to include the whole person; mind, body, and spirit; in a caring, compassionate, and non-judgmental atmosphere.  Treatment is always private and confidential.  I also provide adoption Home Study services through an Arizona licensed adoption agency.

I received my Masters degree in Social Work from New York University in 1992 and my Bachelors Degree in Psychology from Long Island University/C.W. Post College in 1987.  I received my social work certification in New York in 1992 and received my clinical social work licensure for Arizona and New York in 2004.  I have had Post Masters training in several areas of counseling including Gestalt (Humanistic) method, self-esteem, depression, anxiety, grief and loss, infertility, adoption, parenting, special needs, gifted children's needs, and coping with medical issues.  I have also facilitated support groups on medical issues, infertility, adoption, and pregnancy loss.

I am a professional member of the National Association of Social Workers (Arizona Chapter) and the National Infertility Organization of Resolve (Southwest Region).  I have served on the board for the formally known Long Island, New York chapter of Resolve and on the national board of Resolve as part of the Chapter Advisory Group.  I have had my own experience with infertility and pregnancy loss and am an adoptive parent.

I have been a member of SEPTA (Special Education Parent Teacher Association) in New York and FRUA (Families for Russian and Ukrainian Adoption).  I am involved with the Arizona Association for Gifted and Talented organization and SENG (Supporting the Emotional Needs of the Gifted).  I am very knowledgable about adoptive parenting and parenting children with special needs and would be happy to assist you.
