Hello! I’m Gladys Henriquez, a Mental Health Counselor with a Limited Permit (MHC-LP) in New York. I offer counseling in person in New York City and by telehealth, in English and Spanish, under supervision through Being Unbound Mental Health Counseling, PLLC.
A free 15-minute call for new clients.
Maybe something in your life has become harder to ignore. You may be tired of the same conflict, overwhelmed by anxiety, or noticing unwanted patterns showing up again and again. Or maybe you’re worried about your child.
Together, we can take a step back, make sense of what’s happening, and find new ways forward.
I believe difficult seasons do not define us. Every person has the capacity to grow, heal, and build a life that feels meaningful to them.
When you work with me, you have someone in your corner who will listen, be honest with you, and work at your pace. If something is not helping, we adjust.
I also believe in building from your strengths, including the ones you may not always see in yourself, while making room for the parts of your story that feel painful or complicated.
My hope is that therapy gives you space to feel supported, understand yourself more fully, and move toward the changes that matter to you.
Mental Health Counselor, Limited Permit (MHC-LP)
Counseling services with Gladys are provided under supervision through Being Unbound Mental Health Counseling, PLLC.
Your experiences matter. So does your context. What has happened to you, what is happening around you, your relationships, your culture, your family, your faith, and the environments you move through all help shape how you experience the world.
Throughout our work, we will make room for those parts of your story too.
Three audiences, one practice.
Sessions in English and Spanish.
Parenting is hard, and most parents are doing the best they can, even when it doesn’t feel that way. Every child is different, and so is every family. In our work together, we can look at what your child may be needing, what is happening between you, and what might help things feel a little more manageable.
Some of the things we may work on include communication, boundaries, understanding your child’s reactions, and repairing the relationship after difficult moments.
Growing up can come with a lot: school, friendships, family changes, anxiety, big emotions, and the pressure to figure things out.
Sometimes children and teens can tell you exactly what is wrong. Other times, you may just notice that something is different. Counseling can give them space to feel heard, understand what they are experiencing, and find healthier ways to cope and express themselves.
Sometimes you just know something doesn’t feel right. Maybe something feels missing, you feel stuck, or you are not quite where you thought you would be.
Life can take us through experiences and changes we were not prepared for, and it can be hard to make sense of them on your own. In our work, we can slow things down, look closely at what’s happening, and get clear on what you need and where you want to go from here.
Talking is an important part of therapy, but sometimes words are not enough.
When it feels useful, we may include creative and expressive activities such as art, music, writing, imagery, or storytelling. You do not need to be good at any of them. They are simply another way to explore and understand what you are experiencing.
We may also use mindfulness or movement when appropriate.
Whatever we try, we will talk about it first. You always have a choice, and if something does not feel helpful, we can adjust.
You can start with a free 15-minute consultation with me. Tell me a little about what is bringing you here, ask any questions you have, and get a sense of whether working together feels like the right fit for what you need.
Available through the practice at 55 Broadway, New York, NY 10006.
Available for clients who are located in New York at the time of the session.
Session fees through the practice start at $150. Private insurance is accepted through the practice. Please ask about your specific plan so we can confirm coverage and costs before your first appointment.
