About Alona
Are you feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or in need of someone who truly listens? I'm a supportive, non-judgmental and down-to-earth therapist who genuinely cares about the people I work with. Clients often tell me that they feel comfortable opening to me and appreciate a space where they can feel like themselves. I work with individuals with Anxiety, Depression, grief, LGBTQIA concerns. I take time to understand your unique experience and tailor our work, so it is helpful and not one size fits all. Clients often tell me that they feel comfortable opening up to me and appreciate having a space where they can be themselves without fear and judgment. You don’t need to do this alone. I take time to understand your unique experience and tailor our work so it actually feels helpful and not, one size-fits all. I work with individuals navigating Anxiety, Depression, relationship challenges, grief, trauma and the LGBQIA community. Additionally, I provide individual/couples counseling sessions via Telehealth with both NY and NJ clients. In our sessions, you can expect a balance of listening, feedback and practical support. My goal is to help you feel more grounded,, understood and equipped to handle what life throws at you. Starting your healing journey takes bravery, and you deserve recognition for making this important decision. I'll support you in a way that matches your speed and comfort. During our first session, I’ll ask about the concerns that led you to seek therapy, gather some general background details, and discuss any other information relevant to your treatment. I am genuinely looking forward to meeting you and supporting you through this journey. Read more Show less
