About Narcisa

Narcisa Sierra is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) who blends several therapeutic traditions to address complex emotional and behavioral concerns. Drawing on mindfulness practices and depth-oriented psychodynamic work, she helps clients build awareness of present-moment patterns while exploring how past experiences shape current feelings and relationships.

Background and approach

Her background in trauma-focused approaches informs sensitive care for those coping with sexual assault, post-traumatic stress, dissociation, and other trauma-related issues. With a decade of clinical experience in New York, Narcisa also supports people facing anxiety, depression, addiction, bipolar symptoms, ADHD, grief, and life transitions.

She incorporates Internal Family Systems principles to help clients recognize internal parts, improve self-leadership, and reduce internal conflict. Her practice emphasizes practical coping strategies alongside exploration of attachment and personality-related patterns such as avoidant tendencies and codependency.

Narcisa works in English and accepts international clients. She offers a variety of session formats to fit different schedules and preferences, and uses a subscription-based scheduling model that can be canceled at any time.

Prospective clients are invited to begin the process by selecting the Start Therapy button and completing a short matching questionnaire to arrange sessions according to availability.

Integrating trauma-aware and mindfulness approaches through online care

Mindfulness Therapy cultivates present-moment awareness and grounding skills to reduce distress from anxiety, stress, and sleep disruption. These practices teach simple attention and breathing strategies that can help stabilize mood and improve day-to-day functioning.

Trauma-Focused Therapy concentrates on processing and resolving the effects of traumatic experiences, using targeted interventions to reduce symptoms related to post-traumatic stress, sexual assault, and severe emotional distress. This approach emphasizes safety, pacing, and techniques tailored to each person’s history.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each client to identify which methods feel like the best fit based on current needs, goals, and personal preferences, and can combine elements from different models as therapy progresses.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, allowing people to access consistent care from varied locations. These options make it easier to schedule appointments around work and family life, maintain continuity during transitions, and use the formats that feel most comfortable for discussing sensitive topics.
