Therapists in Stone Ridge, NY

Are you struggling with issues you feel no one around you understands? Do you feel stuck in life? Are you frustrated with self- sabotage or self defeating patterns?

It's one of the most disheartening experiences to sit with a therapist who doesn't understand you or your lived experience. Somehow you wind up talking in circles, never getting to the root or the heart of the issue, never finding resolution or feeling better. I am here to listen, to care & to hear that essence beneath your words which language can't always capture. I am here to help you see what you may not be seeing clearly. I am here to help you connect to your body & feel your wholeness. Hi, my name is Vee. I’m a Holistic Psychotherapist & it'd be my joy to support you in reaching your mind-body-spirit-soul & relationship goals!

“Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?”(Mary Oliver) Relationships are fundamental to our well-being & the most vital relationship is the one with ourselves. That’s where the work begins, for all other relationships to thrive. Likewise, our therapeutic relationship is fundamental to your journey. My clinical style is nurturing & client centered; I’m supportive while nurturing your sense of curiosity, mindfulness and self care, thru body, mind, heart and spirit. I’m grateful to live my purpose and support you in finding more joy, contentment and fulfillment on your journey. With Heart & Soul

I provide Body/Mind/Spirit Trauma Resolution tx that facilitates emotional & physiological healing, empowering clients to learn self compassion as they rewrite their life narrative. We often move through our old stories that influence our present. As an experienced practitioner of Somatic Experiencing (SE), and Psychodrama, I use body based action methods to bring clients into the heart of their stories. SE brings awareness to the connection between sensations and affect to free up the tangles in the nervous system caused by traumatic events that can result in living out of alignment with our true nature.

I am a licensed clinical social worker, who uses CBT, REBT and others modalities to assist individual, group, children, adolescents, and families to assist each person with the individual treatment needed. I work with individuals with depression, anxiety, PTSD, behavior challenges, and family conflicts. I provide therapy with an unyielding level of respect for the individual path and circumstances of every person who I have the privilege of helping. My approach, honed over decades of experience, consists of nurturing and instilling a social, mental, and emotional environment that will empower a state of wellness in my client.

Jessamyn has previously worked in a variety of settings, including community-based work with court-involved youth, inpatient psychiatry with adults, and outpatient settings for children, families, and adults of varying diagnoses and presenting issues. Jessamyn enjoys working with people of all ages and needs, but particularly specializes in working with teens and young adults dealing with anxiety, OCD, mood disorders, body image and self-esteem issues as well as grief, life transitions, perfectionism, burnout, and family conflict.

I enjoy the work I do and gain so much satisfaction from helping people recover the wellness that still lives on in them. That wellness may be hidden by stressors of daily living or trauma. I find delight in helping folks identify the strengths and resiliencies that each human being possesses. My favorite part of the work I do is in the developing of the therapeutic relationship. I provide a nonjudgmental, safe environment where people can feel free and safe to express themselves. I work with Individuals, Veterans, Service Members and their families, Seniors and Members of the LGBTQ community.

Wellness Embodied is a multi-disciplinary psychotherapy and healing center focused on the understanding and experiencing of oneself to move through life's most challenging times. Our psychotherapists are training in Somatic Experiencing and other body-based and trauma focsed psychotherapies, and use a variety of clinical tools to assist our patients in learning, growing, healing and becoming the best version of self they know they can be. If interested in becoming a patient of the practice, please leave a message and we will get back to you soon.

I strive to provide a therapeutic environment where clients feel not only safe and non-judged but also genuinely seen and heard. I believe that securing a trusting and sincere bond with my clients is of utmost importance before any real therapy can begin. I work collaboratively with clients to help them understand themselves more deeply and evoke meaning in their challenges so that they can live life more fully and authentically. Empowerment comes through connecting to your truth. I provide the support needed for clients to begin taking steps outside of their comfort zones and toward facilitating the changes that they wish to see.

Why were we taught algebra, but never taught about healthy relationships, delightful sex, grief, depression, or loving our bodies? Why do we fall into the same traps we fell into yesterday? Why do we go back to behaviors that we know are bad for us? I work with folks who feel stuck in painful cycles. I have special training in relationships, sex, and grief. I’ll give you tools & hold you accountable. My specialties are relationships, anxiety, grief, men's issues, queer issues, compulsive masturbation, porn literacy, low desire, ED & teens.

You have a story to tell. Every chapter of our lives presents new challenges and asking for help can be incredibly tough. Deciding to speak with a therapist sounds so simple, but we all struggle with this simple act of vulnerability. You may be struggling to find a sense of purpose in life, navigating difficult transitions and feel constantly overwhelmed, or making new discoveries about who your identity. I will be there to support you through your journey. Let's begin writing the story of your life you want to tell.

I am available for in person and remote therapy. The decision to enter Psychotherapy is a courageous one. When you have tried everything you can think of to feel better emotionally, but nothing quite works, it can be disheartening. Fortunately, that's where the help of a Psychotherapist can come in. With determination and commitment to the therapy process, it is never too late for anyone to change and live a happier more fulfilled life. For the past 33 years I have been in Private Practice working with clients (adults 18 and older) to do just that, change their lives. What makes me a unique psychotherapist is discussed below.

I am now accepting new clients. Wouldn't it be nice to not only feel better but to actually feel good? This is possible!!! This is the way life should be. I have two goals in counseling: to help you get through whatever you are going through right now and to help you improve the quality of your life and to actually feel happier! My style is down to earth and informal. I see my role as a support, working with you. I am on your team.

As human beings, we thrive on the connection we make with one another. That connection is where healing flourishes. We are experienced in working with various populations, and have learned that nurturing the therapeutic relationship we make with our clients is one of the most powerful tools we have. We create a safe, caring, and non-judgmental space for you to dig deeper and work on your best you. We utilize an eclectic approach, so therapy is completely tailored to you and your specific needs. We will provide personalized treatment in order to help you strengthen and expand your potential to live a fulfilling and meaningful life.

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 am a licensed mental health counselor who uses mindfulness, trauma informed therapy, CBT, and other modalities to provide each client with the treatment that best fits their needs. I work with clients from diverse backgrounds, specializing in clients who identify as members of the LGBTQ+ community. With a goal to improve overall well-being, I partner with clients to develop healthy boundaries, improve communication, and adopt effective grounding techniques. I approach each client with an openness to learn what values and beliefs hold the most importance for them, and strive to approach each session with respect and compassion.

I AM CURRENTLY ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS.***Do you suffer from anxiety whether it's Covid-19 related or worldly day to day pressures? Do you have children who are struggling with school or interpersonal conflicts? Are you a teenager who people "don't get" and you just feel lost and alone in the world, and can't seem to allow anybody in, no matter how hard you try? Are you a parent who is having difficulty in getting through to your kids, and feeling overwhelmed? Are you looking for clarity and perspective? Look no further, Hope is here!

Life can be a lot. It's surprisingly helpful to take a step back and talk it out with an unbiased person who really listens. As a therapist, I aim to provide a warm, supportive, non-judgmental space in order to help you feel safe, learn about yourself, and identify your strengths. I incorporate mindfulness-based techniques, kindness, directness, and humor into my practice. I also recognize that everyone’s therapy process is different and so I strive to meet each individual where they are.
