About Neska

Neska Garcia is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with ten years of clinical experience. She works directly with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma, anger, depression, and ADHD. She focuses on practical steps that fit each person's life. Neska adapts sessions to each person's needs and goals. She listens closely and helps clients set clear, manageable goals. Conversations are straightforward and focused on what will help now. Her approach draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, trauma-focused work, and narrative techniques to help people reframe painful memories and reduce distressing thoughts. She also uses motivational interviewing to support commitment to change and solution-focused tools to build concrete next steps. Neska brings experience from practice in New York and Florida and tailors plans to the context a person brings. She pays attention to cultural and multicultural concerns and the stresses that can come from blended family dynamics or life transitions. People who reach out will find a clinician who emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and compassion. Sessions aim to empower people to make steady progress toward a more manageable and satisfying life.

How her approaches work online

Neska commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. CBT sessions often include identifying thought traps, testing assumptions, and practicing new coping skills for anxiety or depression. She also integrates Trauma-Focused Therapy to address the effects of past abuse or assault. This approach helps people process traumatic memories at a pace that suits them and build skills to manage strong emotions. Narrative Therapy is another tool she uses to help people tell their story differently and separate themselves from painful labels. Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Neska will discuss your goals, try methods that fit your situation, and adjust the plan as you progress. She emphasizes working together to find techniques that feel useful and sustainable. Online therapy offers flexibility for busy lives. Video calls let you work face to face when that matters. Phone sessions or live chat reduce screen or bandwidth needs and can fit a short break at work. Text-based messaging supports ongoing check-ins, homework, and quick coaching between sessions. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while fitting it into everyday routines.
