About Zhenique
Zhenique Israelian is a licensed mental health counselor in New Hampshire with 16 years of experience. She works with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, coping with life changes, and coaching in straightforward, practical ways.
She sees people who are dealing with abandonment, attachment concerns, body image, caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, control issues, and mood concerns. Guilt and shame are included among the topics she addresses when they come up in therapy.
In sessions she treats the person as the expert on their own story and builds on existing strengths. Conversations tend to focus on concrete steps and skills alongside reflection about patterns and relationships. She uses a mix of therapies suited to the issue at hand rather than a single fixed method.
Zhenique draws from Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how relationships shape feelings and behavior. She also uses Client-Centered approaches to allow the client's priorities to guide the work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy techniques are used when helpful for managing thoughts, emotions, and coping skills.
Her way of working is practical and collaborative: she listens, helps name patterns, and offers tools clients can try between sessions. People often come for help with life transitions, relationship wounds, or persistent self-criticism. The initial step is a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first session through the online therapy options button.
How her approaches translate to online work
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how past and current relationships shape feelings and reactions. It looks at patterns of connection and helps name how those patterns repeat in important relationships. Client-Centered Therapy puts the person's priorities in charge of the sessions and emphasizes listening and reflecting to clarify goals and concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets unhelpful thoughts and behaviors with practical exercises to test new ways of thinking and acting.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to identify which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That means trying different techniques and deciding together what is most useful as the therapy progresses.
Confirm the session formats offered before you book, since this profile does not list specific formats. Many people find online appointments easier to fit around work, caregiving, or medical needs. Other practical advantages include shorter check-ins when time is limited, being able to continue care during life transitions, and using tools like guided exercises or homework between sessions. Licensed professionals can help adapt the approaches mentioned above to an online setting, with a focus on what works for each person's daily life.
