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.

Do you feel as if there is a weight holding you down in life? It may be based in shame and guilt or a feeling of being stuck. What would it feel like to better understand yourself and to move towards a freer and more authentic version of yourself? I pride myself in creating a safe and collaborative environment where we can begin to explore obstacles such as depression, anxiety, relationship problems, trauma, addiction, and navigating life choices. My focus is to help you meet your goals and sense of potential.

With an outside the box approach, our therapists use creative means to bring healing, growth, and change in addition to traditional talk therapy. We work with anxiety, depression, grief/loss, OCD, managing major life changes, anger management, codependency, relationship struggles, trauma, invisible illness (MS, etc), insomnia, and many different stressors and situations from childhood all through adult life. We’re a group of 6 therapists offering a wide range of therapy services, aligned practices, and wellness workshops, so we most likely have something that you are looking for.

When you seek the emotional growth that you deserve, you will experience change and improvements in your relationships. The therapeutic process will push you beyond the limits of your comfort; but at the end of the journey, you will experience growth, change in perspective, increase self-awareness and increase coping skills to improve the quality of your life. We are a private practice group that provides general psychotherapy treatment such as anxiety, depression and also specializes in women's maternal mental wellbeing such as postpartum, infertility and stillbirth. We are dedicated to restoring our client’s mental wellbeing.

Ready to talk about it? Let's start therapy together! I work with children, adolescents, and adults all across the gender spectrum and in the LGBTQIA+ community. I provide education to families, discuss concerns related to gender and sexuality, and review the co-occuring mental health issues that sometimes accompany different gender identities. For trans individuals, the world of puberty blockers, hormone replacement therapy, gender-affirming surgeries, and changing name markers can be overwhelming—I'm here to help with that, too. I’m happy to write gender-affirming letters for procedures or institutions.

The Hudson Valley Center for Development is a Mt. Sinai associated mental health services practice created in 2007 to meet the emotional needs of adults, children, adolescents, and families in Orange County and the lower Hudson Valley. Our warm and experienced staff provide in person psychotherapy and tele-therapy.

I truly believe that healing is possible given the right conditions. My goal is to co-create those conditions with you and support you in your process. I work with individuals who are struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma & relationships issues (with others and with yourself). One of the offerings in my practice is Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP). I also offer preparation and integration for therapeutic psychedelic sessions.

My aim is to help you clarify your goals and assist you in working through issues from your past that are impacting your present. I am experienced and passionate about providing counseling for teens, adults, couples, and families who wish to create lasting change but are feeling stuck in unhealthy patterns. I have a warm and open therapeutic style and approach therapy from the belief that everyone longs to be seen and understood. From this perspective, I strive to understand your needs and work collaboratively with you to create a space where you can feel supported, heard, and cared for.

My clients range from 20's through Geriatrics. ( Indiv/Couples/Fam) I see a variety of individuals in various situations. Ideally, my clients are seeking to unpack something that they are carrying that may be weighing them down. I like to be the passenger on your journey, and follow your lead while offering possible different ways of seeing a situation, and offering solution focused suggestions. I believe firmly in attachment theory and believe our earliest connections in life have a major impact on how we see life and relationships today. I believe in the ability to gain insight and strength to make positive changes in your life.

Feeling lost or stuck? Ready to begin coming to terms with yourself? Want to come to a better understanding of yourself in your relationships? Interested in digging through your life and getting a firmer grasp on your identity? Are there childhood experiences that you’ve yet to fully deal with that creeps into your bones, your daily stressors and your relationships? Whether you've heard you're "too hard on yourself" or know that you would never treat anyone else the way you're treating yourself, you've finally made it to therapy. You’re taking the first step. It’s time to think, talk and create meaning.

As a Mind/Body oriented Therapist, I understand that our emotions, behaviors, and physical body are sensitive to the stressors we face; we can literally FEEL anxiety, depression, and strong emotions. These stressors can affect our whole selves, often manifesting in negative thinking patterns and/or physical sensations of stress. Whether you are having trouble managing stress, and/or experiencing grief, loss, difficult emotions, relationship issues, anxiety/panic, or you feel like you've lost yourself somewhere along the way, working with your mind AND body through integrated psychotherapy, can help.

We can’t be fully in the present for ourselves or others when we have unprocessed emotions from our past. Do you want to release the past, embrace the present, and unlock your potential? I am a bi-lingual, licensed social worker (LMSW) and trained professional astrologer, who is deeply committed to guiding individuals to greater personal alignment and meaningful growth. I apply an integrative and spiritual approach to counseling, prioritizing the mind-body-soul connection. Working collaboratively with my clients, I help people process and release stuck emotional and behavioral patterns.

Does anxiety, stress, and/or depression have you longing for positive change and reconnection to the world? I am a licensed psychotherapist helping adults find balance and direction in their personal and professional lives. I will guide your discovery of yourself, helping you to blossom into a more fulfilled human being. Most of my current patients and clients are struggling with anxiety, depression, poor body image, difficult relationships, or past trauma. We can work towards goals of healthy relationships, personal growth, job changes, parenthood, and overall life satisfaction. Together, we journey towards mental health and wellness.

My goal is to create a warm and inviting atmosphere where my clients can explore their work, relationship and life challenges with a thoughtful and empathic therapist. I listen carefully and am skilled in helping my clients make sense of their current situations, and environmental, cultural, interpersonal and emotional experiences they bring to me.

Opening yourself up to emotional vulnerability can be daunting, regardless of your stage in life. I offer an empathic and person-centered approach for individuals looking to unlearn, relearn, and forge a more intentional life path. My goal is to meet you exactly where you are in your healing journey. I use mindfulness and integrative therapeutic practices to address feelings that may come up in session, specifically pulling from humanistic and psychodynamic schools of thought. I focus on mind-body integration and helping my clients stay present and grounded.

Relationship strain, communication issues, PTSD, anxiety, trauma, mistrust of happiness and feelings of depression are some of the experiences I help you heal from. I work with folks whose past pains are inhibiting present fulfillment within relationships and quality of life. We work together to navigate stressors and responsibilities they are expected to keep up with, while managing past pains to relearn safety on their current path. I treat the person as a whole- meaning in addition to your psyche, I also take into account your environmental, circumstantial, and physical self and how that impacts your mental health overall.

You’re so tired. And you’re tired of saying you’re tired. Especially after these exhausting COVID years. It’s so hard to turn your mind off from your worries and your endless to-do list. You’re overwhelmed, wondering when things will get easier. You provide so much care to others, but you get lost in the shuffle. Your temper flares easily. So much has changed in your life, and you wonder if you will feel like yourself again. Care work is incredibly hard and often invisible, and caring for yourself in the midst of that is even harder.

Mental health symptoms can exert a painfully strong hold on our lives and take an exhaustive toll. Symptoms can range from anxiety or depression, to a sense of being stuck, to reactions stemming from current circumstances or one’s life history. My practice is guided by the principal that you and I working collaboratively, engaged in a project of speaking and listening—being curious about one’s inner world—can have a significant impact on one’s symptoms. While this practice focuses on reducing suffering it also seeks to produce change.
