About Us
At NYC Counseling we believe everyone can benefit from psychotherapy.
Justena brings over 20 years in clinical experience, working with high-performers in high-intensity environments. Trained by many including Esther Perel and Terry Real, Justena has become a nationally recognized expert in coercive control, high-conflict relationships, and post-traumatic growth.
Justena has built a unique team with both deep expertise and broad lived experience. Our clinicians achieved success in media, business, finance, healthcare, academics and the creative arts prior to pursuing mental health care. Their robust lived experience informs their work with clients building fulfilling lives in hard-charging, high-intensity environments like New York and Miami.
If you are wrestling with stress, loss, or setbacks, therapy can provide the opportunity and space to examine and clarify your thoughts and emotions and identify the best way forward.
If you are seeking a trusted confidant to talk you through life’s ups and downs, therapy can help you make and meet goals, encourage progress, and help hold you accountable.
If you live with mental or physical illness, psychotherapy can help you manage symptoms, while addressing any underlying contributors and emotions.

Want to try Virtual Therapy?
Virtual (or online/teletherapy) can be seamlessly integrated into your daily routine.
Constantly on the go? Have therapy in your car or in a quiet spot of your choosing.
Engage in therapy without the worry of being recognized or the thought of having to put yourself together to go out in the world.
Online therapy breaks down geographical barriers and can benefit you if you have mobility challenges. It eliminates the need for transportation and reduces wait times.
Being in a familiar environment like your home during therapy sessions can create a sense of comfort and ease, where you can create a personalized and relaxed atmosphere that promotes open communication and self-reflection.
