Getting to know Venishka Williams

I'm a firm believer that the health of one's mind is a crucial factor in meeting the demands of everyday life. It becomes much harder to address stressful situations if you're already not feeling well. Think about moments when you couldn't focus at work, successfully study for an exam, or effectively communicate your concerns to others because of how you felt mentally and physically. My work as a therapist involves consistent problem solving, reasoning, exploring, investigating, learning, and healing. I provide compassionate, supportive, encouraging, and challenging therapy that promotes growth for those seeking to improve the quality of their lives. Reflecting on one's actions, emphasizing the importance of self-awareness, and offering guidance on ways to improve overall lifestyle health are some of the ways I help individuals achieve a richer experience of life. I hold a Master's degree in Forensic Mental Health Counseling from John Jay College of Criminal Justice and a Bachelor's degree from Hunter College. Through these means, focusing at work becomes easier, studying for exams less daunting, and expressing your needs more natural-all while paying special attention to your improved mental and physical health.
