Therapist in New York, New York Rebecca J Peart, Therapist

If you’re reading this, I want to congratulate you on taking the first step towards improving your mental health. Knowing you are in a place where you need to ask for help can be a scary feeling, and I want to commend you for starting this journey towards bettering yourself. Life can bring many unexpected challenges. I believe with the correct tools and mindset, it is possible for a person to overcome anything that comes in their path, no matter how difficult the obstacle may seem. Using a collaborative approach, I will help you find coping skills and learn to alter your way of thinking in order to make your goals realistic and achievable. Throughout my career I have worked with people from a variety of backgrounds, socioeconomic statuses, and range of mental health issues. In order to assist my clients, my approach involves individualizing methods of therapy depending on what would best fit you. I graduated from Hofstra University in 2015 with a Master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling. Since then, I have worked with adolescents through adults struggling with substance abuse, depression, anxiety, PTSD, and Schizophrenia. I do not believe a person is defined by their diagnosis, nor do I believe a person needs a diagnosis in order to seek therapy. As humans we all struggle sometimes, but with the correct tools, mindset, and coping strategies, I believe you can become the best version of yourself, get through any hardship, and live a life that you truly enjoy.
