Getting to know Karina Kuszewska

I am a psychotherapist devoted to helping adults resolve the problems that stand in the way of a satisfying life. Difficulties with interpersonal relationships and daily stressors or anxieties related to work and life are common reasons for seeking treatment. I create a warm, non-judgmental atmosphere that allows for the open and honest expression of any and all thoughts and feelings. Using the "talking cure," together we work to get to the bottom of the problem and work through it so life can get back on track and personal goals can be met. I have expertise in working with those who suffer from past trauma, anxiety, mood, and obsessive-compulsive disorders. I also specialize in working with older adults with various neurocognitive disorders and have experience supporting clients in recovery from substance abuse. I hold a Master's degree in Mental Health Counseling from Pace University.

What should a new client know about working with you?

My primary area of expertise is Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy and Person-Centered Therapy. I utilize a non-judgmental, collaborative, interactive approach with clients. I believe the therapist-client relationship is essential to a successful therapeutic outcome.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

Everyone has a unique reason that brings them to therapy. Whatever that reason is, I look forward to helping you find greater fulfillment and meaning in your connections with others as well as in life itself. Our first session will be the most structured as I learn more about you, your goals, and your hopes for our work together. From there, I let you take the lead: You will have the opportunity to vent, gain perspective and insight, learn to challenge your thoughts, and develop new skills.
