Verena Alex
Therapy can be like having personal training at a Gym. Just as a personal trainer shows you how to use the various machines and discusses nutrition, a counselor shows you the different ways to get your most important organ (brain) into shape. Ever feel overwhelmed with life and everything you have to deal with daily? The truth is most people feel this way and need to take time to reflect. This is also where a professional, such as myself, can guide you to acquire clarity. As a licensed counselor, I consider it a privilege to help people resolve life issues. I am licensed in New York, New Jersey and South Dakota.
For the last 11 years I have been working in outpatient settings helping, people through life's toughest issues. I have specialized more in working with adults who have issues with depression, anxiety and relationships.
In my practice, I believe in a holistic approach to healing which includes one's bio, psycho, social and spiritual self. Wherever you may be in your journey, we can and will explore this in order for you to find strength on your journey to find resolution and healing.
