About Carneisha
Carneisha Henry is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and a Licensed Professional Counselor with five years of clinical experience in New York. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, depression, and major life changes. Carneisha also addresses concerns tied to family strain, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, career stress, and compassion fatigue.
Her approach starts with listening. Sessions focus on clear goals and practical steps rather than abstract talk. She draws on client-centered methods to prioritize each person’s perspective and uses cognitive behavioral techniques to spot unhelpful thoughts that feed anxiety and low mood.
For people dealing with addictive behaviors or codependent patterns, she combines motivational interviewing with skills from dialectical behavior therapy to strengthen coping and self-regulation. Conversations include concrete strategies for urges, relapse risk, and rebuilding healthier patterns of relating.
Carneisha keeps sessions straightforward. She helps clients practice new responses, set limits, and manage guilt or shame tied to past hurts or infidelity. Work can include attention to co-morbidity and personality-related patterns when these affect daily functioning.
Her style is practical and action-focused. Clients can expect regular check-ins on progress and adjustments to the plan as needs change. Sessions are conducted in English and follow the standards of her NY LMHC and VA LPC credentials.
How sessions work
How her approaches work in online sessions
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the client. It helps people feel heard and guides the therapist to shape sessions around the client’s priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches practical skills to notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can reduce anxiety and depressive symptoms over time. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers skills for emotion regulation and distress tolerance that help when impulses or intense feelings get in the way of daily life.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, try methods that match those goals, and adjust techniques based on how the client responds. This means skill practice and regular review of what is working in real life, not a one-size-fits-all plan.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, handle short check-ins between commitments, and reduce travel time. For some people, phone sessions use less bandwidth and are a simpler way to keep regular contact, while video sessions allow for visual cues and more in-depth skill practice. Talk with the therapist when you schedule about which arrangement will best fit your daily routine and goals.
