EVE MITCHELL

LMHC-LP, Psychotherapist

pronouns: (she/they)

For over a decade, Eve has worked as an executive functioning coach with a commitment to helping her clients develop a strong foundation of self-compassion and self-efficacy. She holds a Master’s degree in mental health counseling from Hunter College where she conducted her clinical training at an intensive residential treatment program for substance use. She studied at Fordham University’s doctoral program in counseling psychology, but a pragmatic orientation towards service and social justice led her out of academia to practice at Wellness Embodied. Her research interests included intersectional pedagogy and structural competency for mental health clinicians to become better positioned to help their clients navigate their sociopolitical realities and the institutional barriers to wellness. Her commitment to anti-racist, anti-capitalist transformative justice reinforces her belief in the necessity of patience, humor, gratitude, and connection, especially in a therapeutic space.

Eve is passionate about fostering a warm and welcoming environment for all clients and building a therapeutic alliance based on consent, trust, and acceptance. She is experienced in helping adults, emerging adults, and late adolescents navigate a diversity of life’s challenges, including grief, complex trauma history, depression, anxiety, interpersonal relationship dynamics, issues of executive functioning at work and school, and substance use. She is also deeply committed to understanding and developing the mind-body connection and is presently enrolled in the Somatic Experiencing training program to strengthen her personal and professional practice. Her approach to therapy is inspired by Dr. Kristen Neff’s research in Mindful Self-Compassion wherein powerful tools of mindfulness, kindness, and shared humanity help lay the foundation toward a path of healing. She loves fine art, indie gaming, and cats.
