Getting to know Stanisha York
Hi there, I'm Stanisha!
Hello, I�m Stanisha York, a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor dedicated to providing culturally affirming and empathetic mental health support. I hold a Master�s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Phoenix. I specialize in helping individuals from diverse backgrounds navigate life�s challenges, focusing on fostering resilience and personal growth. Together, we�ll create a safe space where you can heal and thrive.
My approach
My therapeutic approach is grounded in culturally affirming, client-centered care that honors each individual�s unique background and experiences. I draw from evidence-based modalities tailored to each client�s needs, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) for emotional regulation, and Psychodynamic Therapy to explore how past experiences influence present challenges. I also use trauma-focused techniques like EMDR and incorporate mindfulness-based practices to promote awareness and acceptance. My goal is to create a collaborative and empowering environment where clients feel seen, heard, and supported in their healing journey.
My focus
I typically work with individuals from the BIPOC community and others seeking support for various mental health challenges. I am comfortable treating anxiety, depression, trauma, and stress-related issues. My goal is to provide a safe, supportive environment where clients can explore their experiences and work toward healing and personal growth.
My communication style
My communication style is warm, open, and approachable, fostering trust and collaboration. I strive to create a non-judgmental space where clients feel comfortable sharing their thoughts and feelings. Working with me feels like a partnership; I encourage open dialogue and actively listen to your concerns.

Overall, I had a good experience. The therapist was kind, listened without judgment, and helped me manage stress and anxiety. I would have appreciated a bit more structure and clearer long-term goals, but I found the sessions helpful and would recommend them.
