About Carneisha

LMHC (Licensed Mental Health Counselor) and LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) licensed in New York, with five years of clinical experience. Carneisha Henry helps people manage stress, anxiety, addiction concerns, depression, and major life changes using conversational, goal-focused work.

She uses client-centered methods to build a working relationship. That means sessions begin with what matters to the person and move at a practical pace. Carneisha also draws on cognitive behavioral therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and DBT skills to manage intense emotions and urges. Motivational interviewing supports change when substance use or ambivalence about goals is present.

Sessions focus on clear, short-term goals and skills people can use between meetings. Typical topics include coping with addiction and relapse triggers, handling stressful life shifts, and improving self-esteem and boundaries. She also addresses trauma, sexual assault and abuse, codependency, guilt, shame, and relationship issues such as infidelity or jealousy as part of the work individuals bring.

Her approach aims to be practical and direct. People can expect to talk through problems, try specific strategies, and track progress. Carneisha adapts the pace depending on what a person needs and what they find helpful.

Work is informed by five years of practice in New York and by the combination of client-centered therapy, CBT, DBT, and motivational interviewing. Prospective clients who want to begin can follow the site process to answer a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How therapeutic approaches are used in remote sessions

Client-Centered Therapy is about following what matters to the person. Online sessions using this approach start with the client's priorities and shape conversation and goals around those concerns. This is helpful for people facing stress, life changes, or decisions about substance use.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying patterns of thinking that affect mood and behavior. In remote work CBT is translated into clear exercises and homework people can try between sessions to reduce anxiety and depression symptoms.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) provides practical skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. Online DBT-style work gives people concrete tools to manage urges, handle crises, and improve relationships.

Finding the right mix of approaches happens collaboratively. The therapist will talk with the person about their goals, try methods that fit those goals, and adjust based on what works. That collaborative process helps decide whether CBT, DBT skills, motivational interviewing, or a client-centered emphasis will be the main focus.

Confirm the session formats available before booking since the biography does not list specific formats. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. It also makes homework review and skill practice more convenient between meetings.
