She received her Master’s Degree in Social Work from Rutgers University with a specialization in promoting child and adolescent well-being. Serafin also earned her Master’s in Teaching from Connecticut College. She strives to guide adolescents and their families toward success.

Sera’s experience gives her the necessary competence to guide adolescents and families through this challenging growth period.
Sera believes all adolescents and their families can live a fearless, tenacious life.

Her Inspiration:
I am motivated by the gratification I find guiding adolescents to become who they were meant to be. I love working with families committed to living their best lives. I am inspired by the effort, commitment, and resiliency shown by clients as they navigate the transformation to successful, strong individuals.
