Hi, My name is Dr. Sister Marian Mikhail Doctorate of Min., L.C.P.C. Advanced, PhD Clinical Pastoral Counseling, M.Div., LMHC, LPC, M.A. Rel. Ed. I am a licensed therapist in New York and New Jersey with 5 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, coping with grief and loss, motivation, self-esteem, and confidence, & career difficulties. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In the first session, clients can expect a warm and welcoming atmosphere where they have the opportunity to share their reasons for seeking therapy and what they hope to achieve. We'll discuss confidentiality and the therapeutic process, ensuring they feel comfortable and informed. I'll ask questions to better understand their background, current challenges, and strengths. Together, we'll begin to outline goals and develop a plan tailored to their needs. By the end of the session, clients can expect to feel heard, supported, and with a clearer sense of how therapy can help them move forward.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

In therapy, my commitment to kindness and listening means that clients can expect to be heard deeply and without interruption. I strive to create an environment where they feel comfortable sharing their thoughts and feelings openly, knowing they will receive genuine empathy and support. This approach fosters trust and allows for meaningful exploration and growth within the therapeutic relationship.

Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.

As a therapist, I am best positioned to serve clients who are seeking support in navigating life transitions, managing anxiety or depression, and improving their overall well-being. I specialize in working with individuals who are open to exploring their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors in a collaborative and non-judgmental therapeutic environment. My approach is particularly effective for those who value empathy, authenticity, and a strengths-based perspective in their therapeutic journey.
