About Carneisha

Carneisha Henry brings a client-centered sensibility grounded in cognitive behavioral ideas to help people address stress, anxiety, addiction, depression, and major life transitions.

Background and approach

As a licensed mental health counselor and licensed professional counselor working in New York, she emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and compassionate collaboration while tailoring conversations and plans to each person’s needs.

With five years of practice, she draws on a range of therapeutic tools to address co-occurring concerns such as codependency, substance use, guilt and shame, impulsivity, and complex trauma. Her approach centers on working with clients to clarify goals and develop practical skills for coping and growth.

Carneisha adapts interventions from DBT and motivational interviewing alongside CBT-informed techniques to strengthen emotion regulation, reduce unhelpful thinking patterns, and build motivation for change.

She frames therapy as a partnership and supports clients through difficult transitions, relationship challenges, career stress, and recovery from sexual assault or other abuse, always aiming to align care with each person’s values and circumstances.

Integrating evidence-based approaches for online care

Carneisha uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify and change unhelpful thought patterns and build concrete coping skills for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns. She also draws on Client-Centered Therapy, offering an empathic, nonjudgmental space that prioritizes the client’s perspective and supports growth through collaborative conversation. These approaches are practical for addressing addictions, trauma recovery, self-esteem, and motivation to change.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and she treats that as a collaborative task. Together the therapist and client explore goals, preferences, and life circumstances to tailor which methods and exercises will be most useful, adjusting course as progress unfolds.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which allow for more flexible scheduling and make it easier to maintain continuity during busy or changing routines. These formats support ongoing skill practice, brief check-ins, and deeper weekly sessions depending on what the client needs and what fits their schedule.
