Mia Hollenbach

Mia Hollenbach

Therapist

Virtual • New York, NY


I believe one of the bravest things you can do is begin to understand your own story. The ideal client is open, courageous, and dedicated to their personal growth. They engage in therapy with honesty, ready to explore and understand their inner world. Embracing change with a patience and self-compassion, they can recognize that healing is a journey. Life is too precious to spend in bad relationships, holding grudges, letting trauma control us, or feeling anxious and angry. Together, we can create a supportive and safe space to work towards a healthier, happier self.

My name is Mia Hollenbach and I received my Master's Degree from Columbia University. I am clinically licensed in both New York and New Jersey and have 8 years of professional experience. I would describe my therapeutic style as warm, affirming, non-judgmental & rooted in compassion.

I prioritize creating a safe and nurturing environment where clients can explore their thoughts and feelings without judgment.

You deserve to live a life that leaves you excited to wake up every morning! Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage and I'm here with you every step of the way.
