Safiya Coles

Please be aware that I am only able to meet with clients in the greater NYS area and can not match with out of state clients at this time. Welcome to BetterHelp! My name is Safiya Coles, I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of New York. I have been working as a counselor for many years and received my Masters in Social work in 2011. I have been able to work in a myriad of settings including intensive in home counseling services, group, couples and individual therapy, parenting training/counseling and youth work. As a therapist I offer a warm, non-judgmental style of therapy that works utilizing a strength based and collaborative approach. I am not here to analyze, as you are already the expert on you. I am here to help guide you to a deeper understanding so that we can reach your therapeutic goals.  As a therapist I have helped clients gain insights into obstacles they may be experiencing including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, trauma and stress. I help clients gain perspective and resilience. With each client I will tailor sessions to your personal needs and goals. While offering a safe, open and accommodating environment. With a bit of humor to help! I look forward to working with you! Thank you, Safiya
