Welcome! I'm Caroline Reis - I'm a licensed mental health counselor in New York. I understand that taking the first steps to start therapy can be overwhelming, but I work to create a supportive and non-judgmental space for you to begin your therapy journey.
Developing a strong and collaborative therapeutic relationship is so important in therapy. I hope to empower you by providing you with education and understanding about your anxiety, obsessive compulsive disorder, panic disorder or phobias, so that you can confidently live according to your own values and goals. I have extensive training in Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) for OCD and anxiety disorders, and also value mindfulness and self compassionate approaches.
What brings you to therapy or what comes up in sessions may feel daunting, but I strive to have clients walk away from sessions feeling understood, validated, and empowered to overcome their challenges. I hope clients leave sessions with clarity and direction about short and long term goals, and how we will work to accomplish these goals in and out of sessions.
