What is therapy like? What does a typical session with you look like?

Hello! I'm Caroline Nwaro, a dedicated and experienced Nurse Practitioner based in Nanuet, New York. With a Doctorate in Nursing Practice and a Master's in Public Health, my goal is to provide compassionate and comprehensive care to my patients. Over the past several years, I've worked in various healthcare settings, including programs for unaccompanied children and care for the homeless. My work often involves using telehealth technologies to ensure that everyone receives timely and effective medical attention. I'm also skilled in creating tailored health care plans, administering vaccinations, and conducting vital health screenings. In my role as the Director of Health Services at Cayuga Family Centers, I cared for both adults and children. This included everything from recording medical histories and developing care plans to prescribing medications and performing necessary procedures. Teaching is another passion of mine. As a Clinical Adjunct Instructor, I have helped train the next generation of healthcare professionals by guiding students through their learning journeys and helping develop innovative curricula. Overall, my mission is to ensure the well-being of my patients by providing high-quality medical care, supporting their health journeys, and fostering a community of wellness. *Specialties •Weight Loss •Pediatrics •Pain Management •Mental Health •Gynecology •Internal Medicine •Adolescent Medicine •Obstetrics & Gynecology •Nursing •Endocrinology •General Practice •Family Medicine *Conditions treated •Weight loss •Obesity •Overweight •Life style change •Metabolic disorders •Thyroid disorders •Annual check-up •Routine health maintenance •Fever •Ear infection •Vaccinations •Asthma •Diarrhea •Common cold •Skin rash •Sore throat •Check-up •Growth concerns •Dermatitis •Chronic back pain •Neck pain •Joint pain •Nerve pain •Headaches •Depression •Anxiety •Bipolar disorders •Schizophrenia •ADHD •Trauma •Panic attacks •Contraception •Diabetes •Acne treatment •Substance abuse •Sexual health •Abnormal menstruation •Flu •Allergies •Covid *Treatment philosophy My treatment philosophy centers on providing holistic, patient-centered care that emphasizes the integration of physical, emotional, and social aspects of health.

My name is Kim Kriks and I am the practice owner and clinical therapist at Hopeful Humans Counseling. I obtained my bachelor's degree in Sociology with a minor in Applied Behavioral Science from the University of Kansas. I furthered my education by earning a master's degree in Social Work and PEL endorsement from the University of Illinois at Chicago. My main focus in my clinical practice is providing counseling for children under 10 years old, working with adolescents, and offering parenting support. Additionally, I have received training in women's issues and perinatal mental health. Before establishing Hopeful Humans Counseling, I served as the clinical director and therapist for six years at a private practice located in Downers Grove, IL and New Lenox, IL. I  also have a decade of experience as a school social worker, working with children of all ages, including those in early childhood programs and early intervention programs. My therapeutic approach is primarily influenced by Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Systems Theory. I strongly believe that families have the best understanding of their own situation, and I am there to offer guidance and strategies during challenging times. Outside of counseling others, I enjoy canoe camping in the Boundary Waters and going on bike rides with my husband and son to the local farmer's market.

My medical career has spanned the challenging environment of acute psychiatric care to the compassionate realm of family health services. As a Nurse Practitioner, my approach involves a comprehensive understanding of your health. I meticulously compile your medical history and conduct thorough examinations to ensure we address all aspects of your well-being. Interpreting laboratory tests and devising customized care plans are among my core competencies.

Reflecting on my earlier career in the Philippines, I gained valuable experience in anesthesia and served as a proactive community health officer, implementing vital health initiatives and providing direct patient care. I am dedicated to imparting knowledge that empowers you to make informed decisions regarding your healthcare. Patient safety is my foremost priority; I am vigilant in identifying potential risks and implementing necessary interventions without delay. I invite you to consider me as your healthcare ally.

You want to thrive and trust yourself, but it feels like an impossible task. Don't you wish you had the tools to change that? You've come to the right place. I'm Kimberly, and I help women and teens just like you: ones that have it within them to feel confident, secure, and thrive, but just need the support to get there. I help my clients find confidence, fulfillment, and values by equipping them with the tools they need to better understand themselves and thrive. Many of today's solutions for anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem are changing negative thoughts, leading many to feel misunderstood and like they are not making real progress. I know that your circumstances are unique, so I help you gain introspection by tailoring therapy to you, and always with an end goal in mind. My training in anxiety and depression means, y I have the expertise you need and deserve when feeling confident about yourself. But at the end of the day, you want to know you are working with someone who "gets" what it means to be a teen or woman struggling with anxiety and depression right? I get it because I have lived it myself. I know that sometimes you just want to quit. So when we work together, you won't just get a trained therapist, you'll get someone who truly understands what you are going through.
