Alexmi Polanco
Licensed Mental Health Counselor - LMHC
Hello!
I am Alexmi Polanco, LMHC, a bilingual intuitive psychotherapist and energy healing practitioner in New York. I help Black, Indigenous, People of Color (BIPOC) identify, set and honor their boundaries + holistically reconnect to their authentic selves.
In my practice, I incorporate a spiritual lens that tends to all of your parts: mind, body & soul. It is my firm belief that optimal healing occurs through the integration of all of our parts. Through our work, you will be able to identify the wounds that you have been carrying and develop an awareness of how these wounds show up in your life. You will also develop a healthier relationship with boundaries, allowing you to live life authentically. You will learn how to honor your light and protect your energy, leading to a more integrated self.
As a partner in your journey, I respect your autonomy and help provide light in the paths you choose to follow. I respect each client’s decision on how they want to move through therapy and work towards building trust. Together we can accomplish the goals you set for yourself. I am here to welcome you as you embark on what will be a rewarding journey. I commend you in taking the necessary steps towards your healing process and am honored to help you along the way!
