Welcome! I'm Alisha Do you find yourself attempting to dismiss negative thoughts or memories? Possibly avoiding situations, scenarios, and places that remind you of something not so great? Do these memories invoke some kind of negative belief about yourself that you know is not true? Do you desire to decrease the intensity of these memories, thoughts or experiences so they are no longer as intrusive and demanding of your attention?

Hello everyone! I'm a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in NY. I received my Masters from Brooklyn College and have been practicing for 7 years. I am also a certified Telemental Health Provider, Certifed Advanced Grief Specialist, and Certified Trauma Treatment Professional. In my experience as a therapist I have worked with adults aged 18-55 in a college setting providing individual therapy services to first-time/transfer/continuing education students from a variety of backgrounds. My approach is person-centered, collaborative, and strength based. I conceptualize collaborating with clients as therapy being the blueprint to personal change in their lives. Therapists are the architects and the clients are the construction workers. Architects don't build your foundation for you. They provide you with the necessary tools you need to use and help you to create the blueprint that you need to follow to help build your strong foundation. With a strong foundation even if the same problem was to present itself in the future, you would already have the tools and the blueprint to know how to address that problem yourself. Therapists simply help you to become your own catalyst for change.

My name is Cassandra Gonzalez and I am a licensed clinical social worker in New York State. I have been in the field of social work for 8 years and licensed for 6 years. I have experience working with children, adolescents, adults, and families in non-for-profit settings and a private practice. During these experiences, I provided group and individual psychotherapy services. I specialize in working with and not limited to, anxiety, trauma, adhd, self-esteem, life changes, and decision making. I enjoy working with adolescents, young adults, working professionals, and individuals who are seeking to address their inner childhood trauma. Through a variety of interventions and techniques, I assist my clients with addressing and working on their goals. I am extremely passionate about helping others and helping them be the better version of themselves. I love the work I do with my clients because I am able to assist with fulfillment in their lives and help them restore their daily functioning. Feeling disconnected, lonely, or anxious? Does the fear of being embarrassed, judged, or rejected make it hard to engage in ways that you really want to? Are you or your adolescent having difficulty with mood, confidence, and socialization? You might be trying to figure out how to face your feelings or changes that no one taught you how to cope. If you're tired of feeling held back by anxiety, confidence, or simply other limitations and you're ready to take a step toward change, then take the brave step to reach out and see how counseling can help you.

I am an LMHC and a Master CASAC (credentialed alcoholism and substance abuse counselor) in New York State. I have 15+ years of experience working in education, social services, government, and nonprofit management.

My experience across disciplines in the realm of human services has left me well-versed in my ability to tackle many of the challenges facing my clients.

Each day, upon waking, I consider myself to be blessed for the opportunity to practice Clinical Social Work for a living. I have felt this way for the last seventeen years, and am a practitioner of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Mindfulness-Based Therapy and hold to the belief that I can best serve my clients when I assist them in the pursuit of resolving today’s problems, issues, and concerns. Of course, I can use psychoanalysis to help my clients understand their past, the subject of “Why I am what I am”. Yet, I find it so much more exciting to explore with my clients, the “How do I improve myself” question. The way I try to live my life is to strive towards living in the "the solution" and the choice to live daily in that quest. To that point, it is fair to say that everything we do in our life IS a choice. We can choose to be empowered or not. Further, it is my contention that the way we live our lives is totally based on the way we perceive it. Two things to consider when you decide to work with me... I believe that nothing changes if nothing changes, and that pain is the cornerstone of growth. To that point, I am grateful to call myself a Christian/Catholic and am happy to talk about Faith or Spirituality as a tool for positive change if the Client desires it. It is not my job to convert you, or bring you back to Church. Yet, I am happy to talk to you about Faith and Spirituality as powerful instruments of change if you so choose.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with specialized psychoanalytic training at the William Alanson White Institute in NYC. I work with clients to get what they want out of life.

My therapeutic approach is rooted in compassion and empathy with the aim of helping you navigate life's challenges. Using a psychodynamic approach, we will work to uncover behavioral patterns which are impacting your life now. This process helps you gain critical insight to confront barriers that are preventing you from achieving your full potential.

As a counselor, I aim to be a mirror for you to help you understand your thoughts, process your feelings, and see your patterns. I value collaborating with clients to build self-esteem, manage stress during challenges or transitions, and create healthier relationships. Common focuses include self-esteem, adjustment, communication, empathy training, strength identification, coping skills, trauma, stress management and career/school issues. I have experience working with a variety of diagnoses including anxiety, depression, adjustment disorders, PTSD, OCD and ADHD. I operate from a person-centered framework and utilize CBT, narrative therapy, REBT and mindfulness techniques. I aim to be strength-based, flexible, empathetic, and open-minded in helping you create change.

With 30 plus years of experience, you will find me accessible, nonjudgmental, and yet, very direct. My approach is collaborative, so I encourage you to be an active voice in your process of change, after all, you are the expert in your own life. If you feel as if you have to recreate your past, I am not the right therapist for you. If you are tired of repeating the same unhealthy patterns, be brave and let me help you overcome what you once thought was insurmountable. Change is possible when you believe in yourself.
