Justine TettehLMHC

Justine Tetteh is a New York licensed mental health counselor with four years of clinical experience. She supports people facing stress, anxiety, motivation struggles, and challenges with self-esteem and confidence. She also helps those coping with career transitions and significant life changes. Her work includes attention to compassion fatigue and related strains that come from caregiving or demanding roles.

Justine approaches each person as the expert on their own life. She looks for existing strengths and practical steps clients can use right away. Sessions focus on clear, manageable goals and building useful skills for daily life. She aims to make the process feel straightforward and steady rather than overwhelming.

Clients can expect a collaborative style that balances listening with action. She helps people name priorities, try small changes, and track what works. Conversations are plainspoken and grounded in real problems like sleep disruption, low energy, or trouble concentrating.

Her background includes work with mood disorders, postpartum depression, and adjustment to chronic illness or injury. She also addresses social anxiety, isolation, and the effects of prejudice and discrimination on wellbeing. This range means she often helps people connect emotional concerns to everyday routines and decisions.

Justine works in English and practices in New York as an LMHC. She encourages anyone thinking about therapy to take a small next step and explore whether her style fits their needs.

How evidence-based techniques work in online therapy

Justine practices using evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change and emotional coping. One common approach emphasizes skill building for managing anxiety and stress, teaching breathing, pacing, and small behavioral steps to reduce overwhelm and improve daily functioning. Another approach concentrates on improving self-esteem and motivation through goal setting, identifying strengths, and trying concrete actions that fit each person’s life.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will ask about goals, daily routines, and what has or has not helped in the past. That information guides which techniques to try first, and adjustments are made collaboratively as progress is tracked.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm current session formats before booking since options were not specified in the profile. In general, virtual sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow a quicker check-in during a lunch break or between appointments. They also let people focus on skills practice in the contexts where challenges actually happen. Licensed professionals will work with clients to find an approach and schedule that fit their needs and goals.
