Despina Vougioukas, LMHC

Despina Vougioukas, LMHC

Psychotherapist
NY
I'm passionate about working with individuals who would like to work on self-care, vulnerability, and growth to live a more self-empowered and fulfilled life. My therapeutic approach is a combination of solution-focused, strength-based therapy using cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and motivational interviewing (MI). I believe in meeting where the client is and treating them with dignity, respect, and compassion. I'm a therapist with Octave and Evernorth Behavioral Care Group. Octave is a mental health practice providing high-quality care covered by multiple insurances. Evernorth Behavioral Care Group is a behavioral health provider group in-network with Cigna Healthcare and Evernorth Behavioral Health. For my availability, please see my calendar and book an appointment with me via ZocDoc.
