Kaela Ason is a kind, empathetic, and accommodating talk therapist, who I saw weekly for a year. I always felt welcome in our sessions and that I had her full attention. She was also extremely patient in working around my professional schedule to have our weekly meetings. I’m very grateful for the support she provided during a year of great change for me, and she was very open to picking up where past providers had left off.

More about Kaela Ason, LMHC
*This provider does not accept any Medicaid or Medicare plans*
You're the one everyone relies on-the high-achiever, the problem solver, the one who keeps it all together. But beneath the surface, you feel stuck. No matter how much you accomplish, something feels off. Self-doubt lingers, burnout weighs on you, and your relationships feel unbalanced. You crave deeper fulfillment, emotional freedom, and connection, but old patterns keep pulling you back. I help women break free from trauma and generational wounds so they can trust themselves, set boundaries with confidence, and create a life that finally feels like their own.
With a Master's in Forensic Mental Health Counseling from John Jay College, City University of New York, I bring specialized training to support you in breaking free from patterns that keep you stuck-whether it's self-doubt, emotional exhaustion, or past wounds shaping your present. Through deep, honest conversations, we'll uncover the roots of your struggles, challenge limiting beliefs, and rebuild self-trust so you can step into the confidence and peace you deserve.
Feeling stuck isn’t failure - it’s a sign you’re ready for change. You don’t have to untangle old patterns alone. In our work together, you'll have a safe space to heal, grow, and move forward in a way that feels right for you. You deserve more than just getting by-you deserve to thrive. Let's connect.
I can help with deep-rooted trauma, self-doubt, emotional exhaustion, and unhealthy relationship patterns. A typical treatment plan may involve exploring past experiences, identifying limiting beliefs, and developing healthier coping strategies. Through this, you can gain deeper self-awareness, rebuild self-trust, and create more fulfilling relationships.
Said one of Kaela's patients:
'I love working with my therapist. She understands where I come from and knows how to keep the conversation going. She definitely knows what she is doing and I am so happy to have her.'

Kaela is an incredible therapist who truly creates a safe and supportive space. From the very first session, I felt heard, validated, and understood. She has a warm and compassionate presence that makes it easy to open up, even about the most difficult topics. Her insights are thoughtful, and she gently challenges me in a way that encourages growth and self-reflection. I always leave our sessions feeling empowered and with a clearer understanding of myself. If you're looking for a therapist who genuinely cares and helps you feel safe while working through life’s challenges, I highly recommend Kaela!
