Teal Berkowitz

My communication style

I create a down-to-earth, loving, yet straightforward environment in our sessions. My style is engaging and relatable, and I often add humor when appropriate to keep the atmosphere light. I'm an active participant in the conversation, helping you feel comfortable and supported as we work together.

My journey to mental healthcare

As an adolescent, I struggled with anxiety and depression and had a psychiatrist who didn't truly listen, simply medicating me without addressing my concerns. That experience inspired me to become the kind of therapist who truly hears her clients and helps them feel seen, understood, and supported.

My goals for you

I start by asking what you hope to accomplish and work with you to create a clear, actionable treatment plan. We focus on your desired outcomes, ensuring the goals we set are realistic and meaningful. As therapy progresses, we revisit these goals and make adjustments so they remain relevant and supportive of your growth.

Our first session

I'll ask about your life history and experiences that have shaped your current challenges. Understanding root causes is key to our work together. It's a collaborative process where I listen attentively, and we start creating a plan that addresses your needs. You share what you feel comfortable sharing, and we go at your pace.
