Professional statement

Nechemya is a compassionate mental health counselor who is dedicated to helping individuals work through life challenges. Nechemya has a genuine passion for assisting others, and "travels" together with the client to discover the beauty and value of living. Nechemya believes there are as many ways to help people as there are people, and strives to meet each individual where they are at.

Nechemya works with each individual to develop treatment/life plans tailored to the needs of the individual. He continuously works to expand his understanding of humanity, and believes that there is no one set of rules that an individual must fit in. Nechemya believes that each individual is the expert on their life, and works with the individual to empower them to make choices that will lead them on the path towards the life they value.

Nechemya believes that the foundation of an affective therapist lies in a strong and trusting relationship. Nechemya works to create an environment where individuals can feel comfortable expressing their humanity.

Message to clients

First and foremost, I make it a priority to create a space where you can feel comfortable expressing your humanity. I don’t believe it is my job to “fix” you, rather I will work with you to feel confident enough to take responsibility for the challenges and difficulties in your life. I won’t convince you what you should do, rather, I will work alongside you to help you discover what it is you really want to do. There is no magic button that I own to rid you of your challenges, however, I will work with you to discover new ways of relating to the challenges in your life. My hope is that after we meet, you will leave my office with a bit more hope for your future as well as feeling empowered to be able to face whatever it is that you are facing in your life.
