Teresa Longo, LMHC
About me
I am licensed in New York with 20 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, family conflicts, depression, self esteem, and confidence. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process.
“I have learned now that while those who speak about one's pain usually hurt, those who keep silence hurt more.” C.S. Lewis
Hope is not escapism but fuel for the soul to empower humans to move out of untenable situations and learn how to thrive. If you are here today you have hope! Life is too short to let trauma control you or anxiety/depression define your life. Calling for therapy can be intimidating but My hope is that you take the opportunity to call and see if I can be of help.
