New to Grow
My name is Ester Cox, and I am a licensed clinical therapist with over 30 years of experience working in the mental health field. I grew up in Brooklyn and currently live on Staten Island. I am married and have two daughters in the mental health field. I offer remote and in person session to individuals, couples and families. I love my profession and enjoy meeting new people.
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
In the first session you can expect to feel comfortable when you share your thoughts and feelings about past and current issues. We will start to develop a relationship and start working on a plan to improve your life and relationships.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
I am authentic, straight forward and will work with you on your goals and will challenge you when you feel stuck.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
I tend to do my best work with people who are willing to be curious about themselves and show up consistently even when therapy feels uncomfortable. I want to engage with my clients and have my clients reflect on discussions between sessions. When things aren't working I want my clients to start understanding why. I work best with motivated clients who want to build trust and open up and share concerns and work on goals.
