I have worked with clients that suffer from trauma, childhood diagnosis such as ADHD, Depression, Anxiety, Self-Esteem, psychosis, Anger control, Emotional Control.

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Ivelisse Concepcion. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Teen Counseling might be different.

My daughter only had a few sessions with Concepcion. Concepcion was kind, patient, understanding and helpful to my daughter as she was transitioning to High School and was feeling down about making new friends. Concepcion was very encouraging to my daughter. My daughter managed to join clubs at school and met new friends. Thank you Concepcion

Ivelisse is kind and present and challenges me to help shift my perspective in situations. She has added so much value to my life in such a short amount of time. She really listens and often references previous sessions to tie everything all together.

Have been working with her for 3 weeks and I am starting to feel way better. She fully understands me, and say things in a way that I can fully understand, and make sure that I really understand. For the first time I feel like I’m going to make all the changes that I really need. And work on me and for me.

She gives great advice based on the concerns you might have and she is very relatable when it comes to certain conversations about life experiences etc. she is very caring and respectful and that’s what’s great about having a therapist, you can always count on her when you need it.
