About Rolita
Rolita Wielkie is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in New York with thirty years in the field. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, parenting challenges, depression, self-esteem struggles, grief, trauma and abuse, bipolar concerns, ADHD, and related life changes. She brings a calm, practical style and aims to help people set goals and find ways to reach them.
Rolita favors a person-centered approach that treats each client as an individual.
Background and approach
She combines that with techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy. She also uses mindfulness and motivational interviewing tools to help with emotion regulation, impulsivity, and daily routines. Her background includes work in both outpatient and inpatient clinical settings.
Over three decades she has supported a wide range of people and draws on those varied experiences when planning care. She also speaks from personal experience with life challenges and the value of counseling. In sessions she focuses on practical steps: identifying strengths, breaking problems into manageable parts, and building coping skills.
She encourages brief check-ins between appointments when helpful. Her work addresses common concerns such as sleep and eating issues, anger, relationship and communication problems, and career or money stress. People who choose Rolita can expect a steady, collaborative approach that balances listening with concrete strategies.
She aims to help clients build skills they can use outside sessions and to support steady progress toward clear goals.
Therapeutic approaches you can use online
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and building trust. It helps people feel heard and helps identify personal strengths to use in day-to-day life.Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at the connection between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses practical exercises to change unhelpful habits and to manage anxiety, depression, or sleep and eating problems.
Dialectical behavior therapy, or DBT, teaches skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and better communication. It can be useful for impulsivity, anger, and relationship struggles.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals and try methods that fit their needs and preferences. Over time the plan can be adjusted based on what helps the most.
Online sessions use video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video is useful for full conversations and visual cues. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or for a short check-in. Live chat and messaging let people send quick updates or work through brief concerns between longer sessions. These options help fit therapy into busy schedules and different lifestyles.
