Genesis Sosa, LMHC — Therapist in New York

Hi there, I'm Genesis!

I specialize in guiding adults through building self-esteem, managing stress, creating healthy relationships, and navigating life transitions. We're a good fit if you're ready to explore root causes and discover how to improve. My approach fosters a safe space where you can explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences without judgment.

My focus

I work with adults of all genders and cultural backgrounds. I specialize in treating anxiety, life stressors, self-esteem issues, and relationship challenges. You'll find a welcoming space here if you're navigating transitions, seeking personal growth, or working to build healthier connections with yourself and others.

My approach

I believe in your uniqueness. Therapy is customized to meet your specific needs using a client-centered approach. Therapeutic interventions are tailored to your goals, ensuring a personalized and effective healing process that honors where you are and where you want to go.

My communication style

My goal is to create a safe and open space for you. I use open-ended questions to get to know you and your unique personality. During our sessions, I strive to create a sense of familiarity and warmth where you feel truly heard and understood.

My journey to mental healthcare

Growing up as a first-generation Hispanic female, I experienced firsthand some of the challenges our community faces. I chose this work so I can help individuals heal from their past and begin living a future that is fulfilling, with healthy relationships and compassion for themselves.

My goals for you

When creating goals, I like to break them down into steps that are manageable and attainable. I like to identify the goals and collaborate with clients on the different approaches we can take to achieve them.

Our first session

During our first session, I focus on getting to know you, your past treatment history, and your current concerns. We then explore what therapy would look like together and what you can expect to achieve. My aim is for you to leave feeling heard and hopeful about the work ahead.
