Christine Cione

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with over fifteen years experience in the field of counseling. I obtained graduate degrees from Hofstra University and from Long Island University. I am recently trained to practice EMDR, a specialized treatment for trauma survivors.

I work with adults and I have expertise in trauma therapy, bereavement, and anxiety disorders. I am warm and genuine and will always respect where you are on your journey. I do not provide couples counseling at this time.

"Go confidently in the direction of your dreams and live the life you've imagined". I believe the therapeutic relationship can promote healing, and that therapy does not have to be an intimidating experience. I believe change is always possible, and that life is a journey, not a destination. I have a passion for continued learning, but I believe the client is the expert in knowing themselves best.

My hope for you is that you achieve greater self-understanding about the thoughts and emotions that drive your behaviors. I hope to collaborate with you on some type of plan, from session to session, so that you might feel mastery over your thoughts and your life. My approach is...You are the captain of the ship and I hope to be a guide.
