Professional statement

Joseline (she/her/hers) is a Mental Health Counselor in New York State. She provides psychotherapy to adults. Joseline is experienced with working with individuals of different identities and sexualities experiencing varying concern just as depression, anxiety, everyday stressors, relationship, and family difficulties. Over the years she has also worked with first-year college students, guiding them in navigating and adjusting to college life. Joseline also has a long history of working and volunteering in activist spaces for the undocumented community as well as other communities. She holds a Bachelor of Arts degree in Psychology with a minor in Sociology and a Master of Education in Mental Health Counseling from Hunter College, The City University of New York.

Joseline takes an integrative approach to therapy to create individualized treatment plans that can meet each client’s personal goals and needs. She primarily draws from Psychodynamic Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Humanistic Therapy while integrating a client-centered approach. Multiculturalism also plays a key role in Joseline’s work, as she understands each client has unique life experiences. Having grown up undocumented, Joseline understands the importance of one’s cultural background and societal influences that can inform and impact a person’s life experience.


Message to clients

Life can be filled with various challenges and experiences; you don’t have to go through processing them alone. Having grown up in one of the most diverse cities in the world, and undocumented, I embrace the uniqueness that everyone’s life experience holds. I value establishing a safe space for clients where we can cultivate trust to work towards your therapeutic goals together. Deciding to start therapy can be an impactful step towards caring for your mental health and I thank you for considering me to take part in that care. Together, we can work on building the tools that can be helpful in coping with what life brings.
