About Justine
Justine Tetteh is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in New York with four years of clinical experience. She works with people managing stress, anxiety, motivation, self-esteem, career setbacks, and coping with life changes. Her background also includes helping people who face compassion fatigue.
Justine believes clients know their own stories and have strengths to build on. Sessions focus on practical steps clients can use between meetings. She aims to make conversations straightforward and goal oriented so progress is tangible.
In the room she listens for patterns that keep problems repeating. Then she and the client talk through small, manageable alternatives. That may look like testing a new behavior, practicing a different way to respond, or planning a clearer path through a work or life transition.
She also addresses related concerns such as caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, communication problems, isolation and life purpose questions. She has experience supporting people through mood and personality disorder challenges, postpartum depression, seasonal affective disorder, traumatic brain injury, and prejudice or discrimination related stress.
Justine uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques and works with clients to pick methods that fit their goals. She offers sessions in English and practices in New York. People seeking international work should note she does not accept international clients.
How evidence-based approaches translate to online work
Justine uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide sessions. One common approach is skills-based work that teaches specific coping strategies for anxiety and stress, such as breathing or grounding practices and stepwise behavioral experiments to reduce avoidance. These techniques help when social situations or phobic responses feel overwhelming.Another approach is problem-focused counseling that helps people break down career challenges, life transitions, or compassion fatigue into clear steps. This often involves setting short-term goals, tracking small changes, and adjusting plans over time so progress is visible.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together they decide which methods to try and review how those methods are going at follow-up sessions.
The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a week by removing travel time and allowing appointments from different locations. It can also allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight or phone-only conversations when video is not preferred. Licensed professionals can adapt these methods so progress continues even when life is busy.
