*Currently Accepting New Clients* Welcome! I am Alena and I am a holistic psychotherapist based in New York City. I have a background in holistic nutrition and wellness coaching and am also a certified yoga practitioner and Reiki energy healer. With that said, I have also immersed myself in the practices of mindfulness, yoga, meditation and other spiritual tools for my own healing journey. I am a firm believer of the interconnectedness of the body, mind, soul and spirit as being part of one’s innate state of healing and well-being. My goal is to provide a safe and comfortable environment for you to reflect and grow in. I will work collaboratively with you to create new narratives for a more wholesome way of living and feeling. Our sessions will be centered towards holding space for you and any emotions and situations that still feel unresolved or need to be acknowledged. Together we will work towards a more healthy and fulfilling way of being. My therapeutic style is emotionally attuned, authentic, non-judgmental and intuitive. As a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP) myself, I also offer sessions and relate to those that experience the world through a more empathically enhanced lens. We will work gently with the parts of yourself that need tending to, we will recognise your strengths and dedication, and we will work on finding balance and acceptance. I will work with you to shed unhealthy beliefs or thought patterns, build more confidence and self-belief, and develop a new narrative that speaks to your heart and soul. I strongly believe in you and your own capacity and potential to grow and transform. You will leave my sessions feeling heard, seen and understood. You’ve taken the first step in being here – which is most often the most difficult but bravest step – so let’s begin.
