Real Results From Fellow New Yorkers
"I was referred to Transformation Counseling Services because I wanted and needed to work with African American/Black counselors to help me process some of my thoughts after a car crash involving myself and my child. I highly recommend them to Black folk and folk of color but I see how their services are for any human who needs to process any aspect of their life to unclog or make clear issues that are rooted in trauma or traumatic experiences."

"Pia is an excellent therapist. She takes the time to truly understand the struggle faced by all parties and provides thoughtful advice while remaining impartial and fair. I have loved every session so far."

"I have been seeing Pia for 5 years and it has been the best decision I have made for my life. Starting therapy can be daunting (to say the least) and from day one Pia has made me feel seen, heard and supported. While I can’t see my life without her I also feel even more empowered and capable than when I started. The impact her practice has had on me has also translated to my family. As a child of immigrants I can see my parents changing as well which is one of the greatest outcomes so far. I highly recommend this practice and I can’t speak higher of Pia Johnson."

Frequently Asked Questions
Is online therapy as effective as sitting in a traditional office?
Yes. Extensive clinical data shows that teletherapy utilizing structured CBT, EMDR, and Gottman Couples Therapy frameworks delivers identical therapeutic outcomes to in-person visits. Client retention is actually higher online because it cuts out travel stress.
What if I do not vibe with the therapist I am matched with?
Clinical chemistry is essential to your success. Our Perfect-Match Promise means you can request a transfer to a different provider in our network at any time, instantly, without any uncomfortable conversations.
How do I know how much my copay will actually be?
We will find out for you. Our billing team does an official eligibility check directly with your carrier before your intake session. If we find your specific plan is out-of-network, you owe nothing for the verification.
