About Holly

Holly Hawkins is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in New York who supports people coping with stress, anxiety, addictions, grief, depression, life changes, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, anger, self-esteem difficulties, career questions, bipolar disorder, compassion fatigue, and ADHD.

Background and approach

With 12 years of professional experience, she brings a compassionate, person-centered stance that emphasizes strengths and practical strategies. Holly blends client-centered care with evidence-based methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, mindfulness techniques, and motivational interviewing.

Her style is warm, genuine, and motivational, focusing on collaboration and helping clients identify and use their inner resources to reach meaningful goals.

Approaches for Online Work and Practical Support

Holly commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy in online work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors, which can be especially helpful for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and mindfulness skills useful for managing intense emotions, relationship difficulties, and self-management challenges.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Holly collaborates with clients to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She incorporates client-centered, motivational, and mindfulness elements so worksheets, skill practice, and discussion are shaped by what the client finds helpful and practical.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility in how people connect. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life transitions, and access timely support from a licensed professional in New York.
