Ivelisse Reyes
Hello! Hola! Welcome to New Day New Beginnings, LLC. My name is Ivelisse and I am a bilingual therapist with over 20 years of experience in the mental health field working with older teens(16-17) and adults (young and older 30-65)). I am a faith-informed (Christian Catholic) therapist.
I am a faith-informed (Christian Catholic) therapist, so incorporation of Catholic and Christian principal within sessions is an option.
I am currently providing telehealth services and in person sessions, and primarily work with women ages 18 and up. My approach is eclectic, insight-oriented, with a focus in strength based and client-centered, because there is no “one size fits all” as we are all unique individuals. Feel free to visit my website: www.newdaynewbeginningsllc.com
First session
In our first session, we will engage in a conversation to introduce one another and discuss what counseling is and what it's not. We will then move on to completing a mental health evaluation form and discuss the specific challenges that brings you to therapy.
Strengths
My greatest strengths as a provider are my faith, compassion, active listening, my genuine desire to help and meeting you where you are in your life journey
Ideal clients
It can be difficult to have balance in this journey called life. It’s important to meet you where you are in your journey (spiritually, mentally, emotionally, etc). You don’t have to walk alone. As human beings, we all experience stress, anxiety, and pain. Difficult circumstances are a part of life, and so, also inevitable. However, you have strengths and are more resilient than you think! Together, we can identify, develop, and vitalize those strengths, develop healthy coping skills, and identify healthy practical ways to work towards becoming the best version of yourself.
Origin story
I became a therapist because I have always felt called to walk alongside people during difficult seasons of their lives. I know how meaningful it can be to have a safe place where you feel truly heard, understood, and accepted without judgment. My goal is to help each client better understand themselves, work through life’s challenges, and move toward healing and lasting change in a way that respects their personal beliefs, values, and individual journey. I became a Catholic therapist because I believe faith and mental health can work together to support healing. I wanted to create a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where clients who desire it can openly incorporate their Catholic faith into therapy while receiving professional, evidence-based care. My goal is to help individuals experience emotional healing, renewed hope, and greater peace while honoring the important role their faith plays in their lives
