Hi my name is Lynda Nora Durand and I go by Nora. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with over 8 years of experience in the state of Florida and New York. I am a Florida native who moved to New York a few years ago. I have a Master in Mental Health Counseling and a certificate in Child and Adolescent Studies. I have worked in child welfare as an advocate and counselor to youth in foster care from there I became a crisis counselor for Hurricane Sandy Victims, to then run a crisis respite center for individuals with what we call “severe mental illness” where we provided a peer environment in which individual’s experiencing psychosis but did not rise to the level of hospitalization could have a place to stay away from their triggering environment, and currently I work with victims of crimes. I shared so much detail as to my prior work experience because it speaks to the way I work with individuals. I believe in meeting every person where they are at and providing a compassionate non-judgmental space to process and explore their individual reality. My approach is a combination of Intentional Peer Support, Motivational Interviewing, Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, and Need Adaptive Treatment model. I do my best to be creative with the therapy I provide and tailor it to the individual that I am working with. I am so happy that you have taken this step to work on your emotional and mental health and look forward to the opportunity to be a support alongside you in this journey.

Life is filled with ebbs and flows of transitions and struggles. We are constantly evolving. Life can be both beautiful & messy and I'm humbled & honored to help you sort through it in individual and/or group counseling. Our minds & emotions uniquely shape our perception of reality. No two people have the same experience, and there is no such thing as a "one size fits all" treatment modality. Yet we can also learn & gain from others' perspectives and support. One thing all humans universally experience is the capacity for joy and pain. You are not alone! I draw from an eclectic background of theoretical approaches, absorbing each day as a learning experience to more deeply understand human suffering and, more importantly, witness how resilient people can be. With 20+ years working in the helping profession, I've seen and heard a lot. I will listen without judgment to things that may be difficult to disclose. Do you want to resolve issues rooted in past or present wounds & break patterns that are no longer serving you? You are worthy of the opportunity to slow down, be still, reflect on, & process your mental, emotional, physical, & spiritual concerns. Now is the time to celebrate your potential. You've got this! You are not alone.
