I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor in the state of New York. I operate from several treatment including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Solution Focused Therapy and Rational-Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT). I Received my Masters Degree in Clinical Counseling and chose to obtain an additional specialty in Sexual Orientation. I am able to work with individuals and couples/relationships both straight and LGBTQ as well as monogamous and polyamorous for a wide range of emotional and behavioral concerns. I currently work in an agency that specializes in the recovery model, which helps our patients set goals for their own lives and functioning and then systematically remove barriers to those barriers that are related to mental health impairment. I endorse this philosophy.
Philosophically I believe that people are not defined by their mental illness or diagnosis and I work hard to help those I work with find the freedom they seek to have the life they want. I have experience working with individuals who suffer from depression, Anxiety and phobias, addiction/substance abuse, bipolar disorders, schizophrenia and other psychotic disorders, trauma, personality disorders, recovering from infidelity, sexual functioning concerns (all gender identifications) as well as those considering gender reassignment surgery.

Mr Demire helped me massively in just 3 sessions. He's patient, asks questions that make you think, and really focuses on the problems you're having. It's a pity that I can't continue my sessions with him, however due to work commitments I have to stop for a while. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to improve their mental health.

I don’t know if I can truly express how much working with Demire has meant to me. Talking to him has helped me develop ways of dealing with life in ways I never thought I could. I’m much more present in the moment (not 100%, but more). He’s great 11/10.

Demire is an excellent therapist who helps me achieve my goals in a ways that are feasible and effective. He has helped me get through a difficult time in my life and he is currently helping me with other areas of my life that I had found challenging due to some core beliefs. ACT has been an effective approach for me; it provides an insightful way of framing suffering such that I am able to live my life without having to feel that I need to combat my thoughts first.

I worked with Demire during a time where I was struggling dealing with the pandemic and all of the stress that came along with it. Demire is a great listener, a great encourager, but also very prepared to introduce a new way of seeing and interpreting situations, if necessary. He inspired me to ask myself necessary questions, challenge myself, and to give myself room for error and time to heal. We also laughed a lot. He is easy to talk to and I always felt better after a session. You won't regret working with him!

Demire will let you work at your own pace and fully respect your boundaries. He works hard to connect with me as a client and understand how and why I process things the way I do and help me work on things in a way that I am comfortable, never imposing.

My therapist consistently holds me accountable, and is eternally optimistic no matter what’s going on in the greater world external to my own therapeutic process. My therapist is super smart; he has to be to keep up with me, and so far, I’ve never ended a session without a new perspective, skill, tool, strategy, and feeling hopeful about the week that’s ended, and the one ahead of our next session. Good times, mostly. Even if it is - therapy - and it’s good for yah.

I’ve been working with Demire for about a year and a half. He has greatly helped me in my goals and self-work, and has been an amazing ally along the way. He listens and responds with great insights. He is compassionate, thoughtful, and intelligent. It’s almost like talking to a good friend, rather than a therapist. I’ve been happier than I’ve ever been, thanks in no small part to the progress I’ve made with him. Can’t say enough good things about him!

From the get go I felt comfortable opening up to Demire and having a running dialogue. It felt like I was talking to friend rather than a counselor, someone who would not judge me and just gave me the space to express what I was feeling.
