Hello! My name is Peter Mittiga, and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in the State of New York. I have over ten years of experience providing therapy. I work with individuals experiencing any adjustments in life, relationship issues, work stressors, trauma history, depression, and anxiety.
I use a Person Centered style of therapy. I may use humor at times and show empathy. I have been trained in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing) and may use that to work on processing through past trauma. I am also strength based and like to explore positive things about you.
I create a welcoming environment and help you to develop the goals you want to work on in therapy. These goals are not set in stone and may change over time, which is perfectly fine. Each session we'll do a check in on how you're currently feeling, how last session went, any updates since your last appointment and then work on processing through stressors and exploring your goals.
