Henrieta Deka, LCSW

Henrieta Deka is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in New York with five years of practice experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, family concerns, trauma and abuse, depression, and adapting to major life changes. Sessions are offered in English and Haitian Creole.

Henrieta approaches sessions in a straightforward way. She helps people name what’s happening and break big problems into smaller steps. Conversations focus on practical strategies for coping, communicating, and managing day-to-day stress. She also addresses feelings that come with illness, caregiving, work strain, and major life transitions.

In session she listens for patterns that make problems stick. Then she works with people to try different ways of responding. This can include practicing clearer communication, setting boundaries, or pacing recovery after trauma. The work is collaborative and paced to what each person can try between meetings.

Henrieta pays attention to emotional themes like guilt, shame, loneliness, and issues around forgiveness and self-regard. She also supports people dealing with pregnancy and childbirth related concerns, midlife questions, men’s and women’s issues, and social anxiety or workplace stress. Her background includes working with clients who face chronic pain or disability and those carrying caregiver responsibilities.
