Who We Help in Queens

If you’re juggling work, family, and everything else, you’re not alone. We support adults across Queens who are professionals, parents, and caregivers and are coping with anxiety, depression, trauma reactions, or relationship strain.

Our flexible appointment times and coordinated care make it easier to get the help you need without upending your schedule. Our clinicians use trauma-informed, evidence-based approaches tailored to the goals you set together.

We do not provide specialized care for Bipolar I disorder, borderline personality disorder, heavy substance use, eating disorders, or schizophrenia; when those needs are present, we’ll help connect you with urgent or specialty programs that are a better fit.

Our Therapy Services in Queens

We offer in-person appointments and secure virtual therapy so Queens residents can access care on their schedule.

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing). EMDR is used for trauma, posttraumatic stress, and upsetting memories. Typical work includes an initial assessment and stabilization phase, followed by phased reprocessing across multiple sessions until targeted memories feel less intense.
CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy). CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns that maintain anxiety or depression. Sessions include skill practice and short, practical homework to apply new strategies between appointments.
DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy). DBT teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness skills. It’s often recommended when people need structured tools to manage intense emotions and improve relationships.
ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy). ACT is values-based work that helps people accept difficult thoughts while committing to meaningful action. It’s useful for chronic anxiety, rumination, or when avoidance limits life goals.
REBT (Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy). REBT targets rigid or self-defeating beliefs and replaces them with more flexible, reality-based thinking to reduce distress and improve decision-making.
AEDP (Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy). AEDP is attachment-focused, emotion-processing therapy that helps people safely access and transform core emotional experiences to support healing and secure relational patterns.
Choice Theory / Reality Therapy. This decision-focused approach helps clients examine present choices, increase personal responsibility, and build practical plans for change. It’s often useful for motivation and life-structure work.

All therapies listed above are offered in-person and virtually as appropriate; clinicians tailor modality and pace to each person’s goals and clinical needs.

Couples Therapy in Queens

If you and your partner are seeking joint work, we can discuss whether a couples track is appropriate for your goals or refer you to a nearby specialist who focuses on relationship treatment. When couples work is offered or recommended, clinicians typically combine evidence-based communication tools (structured behavioral exercises, repair-and-rebuild techniques, and emotion-focused interventions) with skill practice between sessions. Sessions usually run forty-five to sixty minutes; many couples start weekly and move to biweekly as communication improves. We often recommend individual therapy alongside couples work when one partner has trauma, mood, or other clinical needs that benefit from focused individual attention. If that clinical need falls outside Citron Hennessey’s scope (for example, Bipolar I, Borderline Personality Disorder, heavy substance use, eating disorders, or schizophrenia), we’ll help connect you with an appropriate specialist.

How Therapy Works Here

Initial intake/assessment. The first visit covers clinical history, current concerns, safety (risk or crisis), and immediate goals so clinicians can match the level of care and urgency.
Collaborative treatment plan. Together, you and your clinician choose an evidence-based approach such as EMDR, CBT, DBT, ACT, REBT, AEDP, or Choice Theory/Reality Therapy and set measurable goals and a tentative timeline.
Session logistics. Typical sessions are forty-five to sixty minutes; frequency varies from weekly to biweekly depending on need and progress. You’ll get a clear plan and a way to measure progress between sessions.
Privacy & records. Sessions and records are handled with standard clinical confidentiality and secure telehealth platforms; clinicians will explain privacy practices during intake.

We offer in-person sessions and virtual therapy to Queens residents; scheduling is by appointment. For current hours, exact availability, insurance verification, and fee details, please contact the office.

Local Resources & When to Seek More Urgent Help

If you are in crisis or an immediate danger to yourself or others, call 911 or your local crisis line right away. For non-emergency supports, primary care providers, community mental health centers, and peer support groups in Queens can help with referrals and interim support.
