Stillwater, NY 12170
My name is Jack Stell. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC), Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) and a Licensed Chemical Dependency Professional (CDP). I am a Navy veteran - 12 years on four submarines. I am also a survivor of both post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and traumatic brain injury (TBI). My personal experiences and recovery give me a unique perspective and a distinct advantage when working with clients who have had similar experiences. My life and the lives of most of my clients are living examples showing that the effects of trauma and TBI can be reduced and often eliminated.

Confused by what all the acronyms are behind the therapists names? Aren't they all just therapists? Realizing that in every therapy profile they describe their self as "eclectic".... How about trying to understand where you fall on a sliding scale but wondering how your insurance could play effect? What is therapy?.... Life throws a lot at us and it always seems to occur all at once, leaving us with unanswered questions and lack of support. I'm here to help make sense of it all and get us to where we mentally deserve to be at this time in our life.

Hello! I am passionate about utilizing movement based interventions to help clients improve their mental health. As a Certified RunWalkTalk(R) Therapist (runwalktalk.com), I encourage the use of movement, such as walking, running, or hiking in therapy sessions instead of the traditional in-office sit down sessions. I work with my clients on bike paths, trail systems, and in park settings. I also offer Telehealth as an option for clients in NY and FL who prefer the flexibility of video or phone sessions.

Life rarely goes as planned. It’s not as straightforward as we hope it will be. Instead, it’s filled with highs and lows, and challenges of all sizes. At times, we manage to bounce back, but other times, we find ourselves stuck in a rut. Our emotions can sometimes become so overwhelming that they leave us feeling paralyzed. Or they might have the opposite effect, fueling racing thoughts that keep us up all night or causing us to lose interest in things we once enjoyed. You know yourself better than anyone, and you can sense when something’s off. Navigating these complex emotions can be tough, especially on your own. I’m here to help

Waitlist for new clients
The decision to begin therapy can be challenging and can follow attempts to manage difficult life circumstances independently. I believe that healing begins when there is a safe, non judgmental space to grow a therapeutic relationship. I spent the early part of my career working extensively with adolescents and families which allowed me the opportunity to help them work through their trauma as they struggled with grief and loss, anxiety, self-injury, depression and PTSD. Additionally, I spent almost 7 years in an outpatient clinic as an Administrator, also providing clinical counseling to children, adults and families.

My ideal client is someone who comes to therapy in a time of need. They might be experiencing anxiety due to life changes and transitions or they might be experiencing symptoms of anxiety for the first time and be concerned as to where the anxiety came from. The client might be processing loss or grief from a loved one or past friendships and or relationships. My ideal client will have needs such as needing to identify coping skills to get through life stressors, assistance with reaching goals. As a therapist I would be able to provide the client with a objective perspective to bounce their ideas and situations off of.

No one aspires to be in therapy indefinitely. My clients walk through the door bearing similar worries, but their real concerns often differ from their initial perceptions. They express desires to "fix my anxiety," "solve my depression," or "quit smoking marijuana." What they're truly communicating is, "I want to flourish, I want to deepen my relationships with those I care about, and I'm weary of these issues."

I utilize a person-centered, non-pathological approach to therapy. Internal Family Systems is my preferred modality as it views the struggles of humankind, as just that, struggles and not pathology. It also honors the healer inside of each of us, believing that each person not only has the capacity to heal but has a Self that is designed to do just that. In my approach, IFS is used as a road map and we journey together to the destinations you identify. You will do some hard, challenging, and courageous work but you will not do it alone; I will honor all your parts and hold a steady light for you as you journey through.

People arrive at a therapist's office, having tried their best way of getting along in the world, regardless of age, ethnicity, religion, sexual orientation and so forth. A universal reason for seeking help is distress in a primary relationship. In therapy, I help individuals understand how past relationships with parents, siblings and significant others impacts relationship troubles in the here and now. A trusting therapeutic relationship offers an opportunity for exploration of one's own mind at the deepest level - healing, new pathways of relating, greater authenticity, vitality & living a life that's true to one's self.

As long as you keep moving, everything is okay. Taking on extra assignments at work. Doing favors for friends and loved ones. Always going the extra mile to ensure you don’t disappoint anyone. But, as soon as you slow down for a moment, the emptiness returns. It’s as though something integral is missing from your life. Thinking about it causes crippling anxiety, so you do your best to ignore it. But things keep getting worse. You know you should take time to reflect and heal, but you feel guilty. If only you had the confidence to reclaim that sense of self that has been missing for so long. You worry you may feel this way forever.
