Getting to know Ashley Raia

I am a licensed mental health counselor with a Master's in Mental Health Counseling from Queens College, City University of New York. I work collaboratively with my clients to help them navigate the various roadblocks and difficulties that life presents. The emotional pain caused by these issues is often isolating and confusing. I believe it can be healing to have someone there with you to help explore these feelings. My treatment approach is collaborative and informed by psychodynamic, mindfulness, and cognitive-behavioral theories to strengthen your coping skills and work toward symptom relief. Deciding to seek psychotherapy is not an easy decision, so I commend you for taking this important first step.

What should a new client know about working with you?

I place a strong importance on you feeling safe, heard, and understood in the therapeutic relationship. Each intervention is designed to the unique needs of the client enhancing personal choice, inner strengths, and self empowerment.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

In a safe and open environment, you will have the opportunity to delve into new ways of living that are liberated from anxiety and self-doubt. I provides concrete, valuable tools and insights to help you better understand the behaviors, thoughts, and emotions that contribute to self-defeating patterns and strained relationships. My treatment approach is a blend of various therapeutic techniques, drawing from: Psychodynamic Techniques: To understand the roots of emotional distress and explore unconscious patterns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): To identify and challenge negative thinking patterns, fostering healthier responses and behaviors. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR): To help process and heal from trauma and distressing experiences.
