About Justine

Justine Tetteh is a New York licensed mental health counselor with four years of professional experience. She helps people who are wrestling with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, career difficulties, and major life changes. She also supports people facing compassion fatigue and those adjusting after illness or injury.

Justine meets people where they are and treats them as the expert of their own story. She focuses on practical steps that build confidence and motivation. Sessions are aimed at small, manageable changes that add up over time.

Her background includes work with mood concerns, social anxiety, and issues that come with caregiving and chronic health conditions. She also addresses concerns such as isolation, communication problems, impulsivity, and life purpose. Traumatic brain injury appears among her focus areas and may come up in planning supports and coping strategies.

In the therapy room she uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques and a collaborative style. She listens for strengths and helps clients try new ways of responding to stress and relationship challenges. Progress is tracked in simple, practical ways so clients can see what changes help.

Justine provides services in English and practices in New York. Starting therapy often begins with a short matching questionnaire and scheduling that fits around a person’s life. Sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

How evidence-based techniques guide online care

Justine works from evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change. One common approach is behavioral work that helps people try new actions to reduce anxiety and lift mood, such as planning small activities and testing different coping skills. Another useful approach is problem-focused work that looks at specific life challenges like career transitions, caregiving strain, or changes after illness, and breaks them into manageable steps.

Choosing the right method is a collaborative process. The therapist and client discuss goals, try methods, and adjust plans when something isn’t working. This way the approach evolves to match a person’s needs and preferences rather than being fixed from the start.

If you’re considering online therapy, confirm the session formats available before booking since formats were not specified. Many people find online sessions fit into busy schedules, let them check in during a lunch break, or avoid travel time. Online work can make it easier to keep consistent appointments and practice skills between meetings. A short matching questionnaire and scheduling process are used to get started and plan sessions that suit everyday life.
