Rosalyn Pirela
I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in New York with seven years of experience, and I truly believe that vulnerability is a strength. In our work together, you’re not just a client—you’re an active partner in your growth. My goal is to create a safe, supportive space where we can explore what’s holding you back and help you move forward with confidence and purpose
Get to know me
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
Your first session is a space for us to connect and start understanding your story. We’ll talk through what’s been going on, any symptoms you’ve been experiencing, and what you’d like to work toward. From there, we’ll shape a personalized approach that fits your journey—whether it’s mental health, life changes, or self-expression.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
My approach is grounded in empathy, openness, and authenticity. I provide a non-judgmental space while also offering direct, thoughtful feedback. I remain flexible in my methods so that therapy feels tailored, effective, and aligned with each client’s goals.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
I work best with clients who feel overwhelmed, emotionally drained, or stuck in patterns they are ready to change. Whether you are navigating anxiety, past trauma, life transitions, or relationship challenges, I offer a supportive space to explore your experiences. Together, we work toward building clarity, confidence, emotional balance, and lasting healing that aligns with your personal goals and values.

My treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I incorporate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients understand the connection between their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, while also supporting them in identifying primary and secondary emotions. I have extensive training in trauma-informed care and focus on helping clients build self-advocacy, empowerment, and meaningful change.
Couples Counseling
In couples counseling, I work alongside both partners to enhance communication, deepen emotional connection, and navigate conflict in a healthy, constructive way. I focus on creating a supportive and empowering space that encourages growth, healing, and lasting change.
Dialectical Behavior (DBT)
My goal is to help clients build self-awareness while developing practical skills in emotion regulation, distress tolerance, mindfulness, and interpersonal effectiveness. Through this work, you can gain new perspectives and create lasting emotional balance and healthier relationships. I’m committed to supporting you every step of the way in your growth and healing.

She's so easy to talk to, funny, and great. Love our sessions and I love that she asks questions and follows up on things I say. She's definitely very knowledgeable and I love that it feels so natural and easy.
