Getting to know Yeira Tejada
I'm a bilingual (English/Spanish) Licensed Mental Health Counselor with over 8 years of experience providing counseling to clients in need. I pride myself on creating a safe and supportive space where we can work side by side to overcome life's challenges. I am fully committed to listening and offering my best professional practices to help you.
My curiosity about others and my ability to actively listen led me to a career in mental health counseling. I earned my Master's in Mental Health Counseling from Mercy College, which laid the foundation for my work in the field. Over the years, I have worked with diverse individuals in various settings, including schools, community health centers, and day treatment programs. As I gained experience, I focused more on family therapy, parenting, and working with children and adolescents, though I have training in different areas as well. My career path has solidified my belief in the importance of having a safe place to share your story while being reminded that you have the power to change your narrative.
I firmly believe that a collaborative relationship serves as a source of healing and is key to successful treatment. I have confidence in the idea that you are the expert on your own life; you know your experiences, thoughts, and feelings better than anyone else. Because of this, you bring a lot to the table as we problem-solve some of the difficulties you are facing.
You can count on my empathetic and person-centered approach in every conversation we have. Thank you for taking the first step and for allowing me to be part of this very important journey.
I look forward to meeting you!
