    About Carneisha

    Carneisha Henry is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) and Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in New York. She draws on person-centered care to help people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and addiction-related concerns. Her approach focuses on respectful, sensitive support that meets each person where they are.

    With five years of professional experience, she works with people coping with major life changes and compassion fatigue. She also supports those dealing with trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, career strain, and relationship-related issues such as jealousy or infidelity. Additional focus areas include co-morbidity, codependency, drug and alcohol addiction, guilt and shame, impulsivity, personality disorders, self-love, and sexual assault and abuse.

    Carneisha uses Motivational Interviewing to help people find their own reasons to change. She pairs that with Client-Centered Therapy to keep conversations grounded in the client’s perspective. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy techniques are used when helpful to teach practical skills for managing thoughts, feelings, and urges.

    Sessions are guided by compassion and sensitivity, and plans are tailored to each person’s goals. She emphasizes clear dialog and practical steps rather than one-size-fits-all solutions. The aim is steady progress toward a more manageable and meaningful day-to-day life.

    People who want to begin are invited to use the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule according to therapist availability. The counselor practices in New York and conducts sessions in English.

  2. How therapy approaches translate to online work

    Carneisha uses Motivational Interviewing to help people explore their own reasons for change and build commitment in small, practical steps. That approach is useful for addiction concerns, ambivalence about change, and shifting habits.

    She also practices Client-Centered Therapy, which centers conversations on the client’s experience and priorities. This helps people feel heard and shapes sessions around what matters most to them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to identify unhelpful thought patterns and to teach coping strategies for anxiety, depression, and stress.

    Finding the right approach is part of the work. Carneisha will help determine which methods best match a person’s needs, goals, and preferences. That decision is collaborative and may change as progress is made.

    Because session formats were not specified in the biography, confirm current online session options before booking. Many people find virtual sessions helpful for fitting therapy into a busy week, making it easier to keep regular appointments, and using shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Online meetings can also let people work with a licensed professional from their everyday locations without needing extra travel time.
