Therapists in Port Ewen, NY

Although my work centers around the very particular needs of every client, the focus of my practice is around the perceptions of Self and the ‘negative’ perceptions (so often old belief systems) that lead to depression, anxiety, relationship difficulties, feelings of aloneness - With guidance and care I will do my best to help you find genuine self-compassion and self understanding. Together, we can find what works for you; your needs, your pace… !

Finding the right therapist can be intimidating. You want to be able to find the right match to your specific needs. You want to feel like you are really being heard and understood.

Our reactions to the world are influenced by our experiences. For me it’s meant transitioning from city life in Brooklyn & NYC to quieter moves upstate in the Hudson Valley; it’s meant growing from a young adult into family life & active mother of 3; and changing gears to be able to support and treat youngsters and adults in a way that best serves each of them. I've spent most of my career servicing children, teens and their families in emotional, behavioral, academic & psychiatric capacities. I've supported kids and teens through mental illness, trauma, developmental delays, learning issues,

Donnie Joseph has 27 years of experience working in social service and counseling spaces. During that time he has worked to counsel and support people during challenging times in their lives- whether in a psychiatric unit, emergency department, an outpatient substance abuse program, a long-term residential adolescent program, or a stabilization unit, Donnie considers it an honor and a privilege to stand alongside people and be a source of support during these vulnerable times.

My approach is to help you create more self-understanding so you can open to a more authentic, engaging, and fulfilling life. Therapy is the place where you can build a new kind relationship with yourself and your world, one that taps into the fundamental dynamism of the human spirit so that you can enjoy a fuller sense of connection and purpose. My approach is a blend of trauma-informed relational and psychodynamic theories with an emphasis on attachment and developmental issues pertaining to anxiety, depression, and addiction.

In working with clients in psychotherapy, I find it useful first to sort out what's working in their lives from what's not. Then we look at what's not working; be it depression, anxiety, obsessive thinking, compulsive & addictive behavior, and extreme emotional reactions. All of these things can all serve as clues to help us identify and address hidden and unexpressed emotions and experiences. (In addition to treating adults, couples, and adolescents with the more standard therapy issues, I have extensive experience working with the full gamut of sexual topics.)

I have chosen not to work with children or couples yet offer individual psychotherapy to adults over 21 as well as seniors. I offer compassion, empathy, and knowledge in a supportive manner to assist each individuals growth and healing process. I am willing to assite clients using various techniques to assist them in meeting their goals.

My approach is collaborative and compassionate in nature. I will work with you step by step to create and accomplish realistic and attainable goals that match the vision you have for your life. I want to understand where each of my clients are coming from so that I can work to provide well-informed, culturally sensitive care, unique to each client's individual needs. I am experienced in working with trauma, depression, anxiety, panic disorder, addiction, compulsive behaviors, and many other mental health issues.

I believe in our capacity to challenge and navigate away from unhealthy patterns. I support my clients in cultivating awareness and guide them in the healing process by drawing on innate strengths and resilience. I encourage clients to think of human beings as organisms, of body and of mind, that live in relationship with others and with our environment. As such, growth is our natural state. We are meant to grow, to act fluidly and adapt creatively throughout our lives and we suffer when that process is blocked or interrupted. However, our suffering can provide an opportunity to grow in new and exciting ways.

When emotions stir within, causing anxiety, depression, or distress in relationships, life can feel overwhelming. I view these shifts as gifts, like an indicator light your higher Self is yearning for a personal growth spurt. These feelings can be an opportunity to free yourself from the experiences that hold you back from living your best life. My ideal client is ready to explore their internal world to make the changes needed to create a positive transformation. I am a body-based trauma-informed therapist with a master’s degree in dance/movement therapy. I use the creative process and visualization as a tool for exploration.

I am Rebecca, a licensed clinical social worker and psychotherapist. My practice is fully virtual and all sessions are held via secure teletherapy platform. I am an LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC affirming provider. My approach is rooted in supporting the strength, resilience, and wisdom of the client.

Each of us is deserving of joy and peace, and I am here to help you claim yours. In therapy, we will collaboratively explore the barriers that stand between you and your most authentic self so that you may live fully and enjoy who you truly are. I treat individuals and couples with a variety of issues related to body trust/kindness, trauma, LGBTQIA+-specific issues, anxiety, self-esteem, relationships, and more. My approach is collaborative and kind in nature with mindfulness, DBT, and Internal Family Systems incorporated as needed. Body respect, trust, and the principles of Health at Every Size are foundational to my approach.

As a psychodynamic therapist, I often work with clients who are interested in their relationship to themselves, working on healing anxiety, depression, codependency, relationships, and life transitions. My approach tends to be depth-oriented and existential, for example, how we connect with our deeper self, how we make meaning of our lives and experiences, and how we create our own stories. Rather than focus on how we can "fix" things, I believe we have to look at how we relate to the parts of ourselves that we feel like we need to "fix". I support my clients in creating more self-acceptance and meaning in their lives.

The practice has availability for telehealth currently. I personally don't have openings. If you're reading this, chances are you're having some difficultly in your life and are ready for change. Therapy should be geared towards growth, empowerment and maximization of a person's innate strengths. My goal is to help with your journey in life. If you are looking for help in healing emotional wounds, finding better ways to cope with stress, and improving your relationships I might be able to help.

As inherently social beings, we are not meant to do life alone. In order to heal from the wounds of the past or present, it is essential to be engaged in the safety of a relationship that allows for one's full expression of vulnerability and authenticity through unconditional positive regard and attunement. Whatever season of life you may be enduring, I am here to help you foster a stronger sense of connection, validation, and acceptance. It is my intention to guide you toward increased self-awareness and intuition so that you may ultimately achieve greater stability, compassion, and fulfillment in your day-to-day experience.

I provide psychotherapy to a diverse population of clients, specializing in survivors of trauma, borderline personality disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder, anxiety, LGBTQIA+ issues, anger, family issues, couples' issues, bipolar disorder, chronic illness, grief and bereavement. My practice is rooted in principles of affirmation, intersectional justice, harm reduction, and embodiment and holds the position that social oppressions and systemic problems operate as barriers to wellness.

My approach to therapy is rooted in empathy, collaboration, and evidence-based practices. I believe in the power of a strong therapeutic relationship and work collaboratively with my clients to explore their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors in a safe and confidential space. I have a deep passion for helping individuals navigate life's challenges, whether it's managing anxiety, overcoming depression, coping with trauma, improving relationships, or exploring personal identity and growth
