I am the Founder and Director of The Talk Suite. I have hand-selected each therapist on our team, sharing with them my philosophy, expertise and passion for my work. I encourage our team to use an eclectic and flexible approach to the way in which we practice therapy; adapting different theories of psychology to the individual needs of our clients. I am a Psychoanalyst and New York State Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I received my Master's Degree in Social Work from New York University and postgraduate education at Institute for Contemporary Psychotherapy. I have been in private practice for over twenty years.

Hello, I appreciate you creating time to be here. I'm Jean Messeroux (he/him), a Licensed Psychotherapist and Wellness Coach. With a background as an educator and social worker, I'm passionate about supporting mental health journeys. I hold a Bachelor's in English and African-American Studies from UMass Amherst and a Master of Science in Social Work from Columbia University. Beyond therapy, I'm a creative entrepreneur, using photography and design for healing and self-expression. Let's connect!

As a licensed psychotherapist, I provide you with a safe, affirming space to share about emotions, thoughts and behaviors that are impacting your daily functioning, relationships and sense of self. Through collaboration, we explore the origin of these concerns, identify and deconstruct your belief system, work together to process the past and come to a resolution.

I am a seasoned clinical social worker and psychotherapist with 30 years' experience. I offer clients a welcoming, safe environment in which to learn more about themselves and explore new ways of enhancing their relationships and functioning. Individual therapy is my primary method of treatment. My style is psychodynamically based, supportive and interactive, informed by my experience utilizing many psychotherapeutic modalities. In hospitals and in private practice I have worked with a diverse group of clients, including veterans, as they address issues related to gender, sexual identity, addiction, grief, PTSD, panic disorder, OCD, anxiety, and depression.

As a therapist, I seek to empower people with self-knowledge, self-awareness, and understanding. Within my practice, I find human experience can vary from day to day. My practice serves to engage people to have a more positive experience with themselves in a safe and compassionate space. I approach therapy from a place of discovering your strengths in a holistic manner, in order to help you address your unique life motivators and stressors. My goal is to give you the opportunity to process and grow from your hidden inner conflicts.

I believe that a positive and genuine therapeutic relationship is essential to successful treatment. My empathetic nature fosters an authentic and trusting therapeutic alliance with my clients, creating a supportive and nonjudgmental environment for each individual. I am passionate and dedicated to working with my clients to develop tools and find ways to help each of them lead happier and more satisfying lives. I use a range of therapeutic modalities to help clients explore their past, to better understand their present situation, and to develop specific skills to reach their goals and to improve their overall quality of life.

As a clinician, my foundational belief is in the power of collaboration and connection. I prioritize building a therapeutic alliance that fosters an environment where clients feel empowered to bring their entire selves into each session. My approach is anchored in warmth and humor, facilitating a space where growth, self-recognition, and development are not just goals but achievable realities. With a deep understanding that individuals are the experts of their own experiences, I utilize therapy as a means to unlock and explore the true self.

Finding the right therapist is an important factor in achieving your goals and improving your life. My goal as a therapist is to create a safe space for you to discuss and explore any issue you present. In terms of relationships, my goal is to work with you to identify challenging patterns in your life and to help you form new and satisfying ways of improving communication, find a sense of well-being and achieve your goals. I have experience working with adults, adolescents and couples and my approach is engaging, accepting and warm.

Through my meaningful work with clients, I apply an emphasis on identifying what has been holding you back from achieving goals, or causing unhealthy patterns in your every day life. I will always focus on holding a safe space for you, and identifying your individual needs while building the confidence that is necessary to improve your coping skills, lifestyle, and overall well-being. In my work, I often pull techniques from therapeutic approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, and emotion-focused therapy, while maintaining a warm and gentle approach.

My work as a clinical psychologist has grown out of my interest in the interplay of how we develop, what we experience, and how we make our way through our challenges. My commitment in the therapeutic process is to a thoughtful understanding of how your experiences have brought you to this point and what the underlying causes of difficulty in your life are. Through our collaboration we work in an atmosphere of respect to deepen that understanding, reduce distress, create better ways of coping, promote healing, and structure changes that allow for greater balance and the possibility of joy.

Are you finding difficulty leaving a toxic relationship whether it be with your partner, family members, friends or your boss? Are you feeling powerless to change your situation? Is your constant need for the approval of others affecting your self-esteem? Are you becoming depressed and/or anxious as a result? Have you fallen hostage to discouraging fears and insecurities? Seeking support in order to regain emotional and mental health is the first step in taking back control. I can help you on this journey.

Events in recent years have heightened underlying feelings of anxiety and depression for many of us. Others may experience ongoing struggles with addiction, trauma, relationships or perhaps a strong inner critic. I think of therapy as a grounding, non-judgmental and encouraging space which allows us to seek to make sense of these problems collaboratively.

My passion and focus is working with adults, adolescents, and families experiencing distress in their relationships and/or symptoms of depression and anxiety. I approach my work with clients from a place of genuine curiosity and understanding. I aim to provide a safe space where we can discuss the challenges getting in the way of achieving your goals and create a sustainable support system for lasting change in your life. I pride myself on being transparent during the process and an active participant in session.

Therapy provides individuals with a safe place to show up exactly as they are, and to have the opportunity to understand themselves more deeply. My hope is to support you, empower you to use your voice, and walk alongside you through your healing process. My counseling style is warm, interactive, and client-driven. I am a psychodynamically oriented therapist, incorporating components of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), relational therapy, and mindfulness practices. I know firsthand how transformative therapy can be, and I am honored to co-create a space of openness and growth with my clients.

Your decision to start therapy is a commitment to yourself. I work collaboratively with my clients to create a space that encourages honesty, authenticity, and directness. I will support you in developing the insight, skills, and resilience you need to better handle challenges and make changes that will lead to more life satisfaction. My approach to therapy is a mix of psychodynamic, relational, and behavioral methods. You are the expert on your life and history, and I will bring my expertise from my clinical and academic training to help you work toward your goals.

Welcome! I'm Natalie, a psychotherapist working with adolescents and adults who are navigating relationships, dealing with self-esteem issues, and are searching for more meaning in their lives. I work well with young, creative professionals who are eager to learn about themselves, address undesired patterns, and who are looking for support in piecing things together. While anxiety, depression and relational conflicts are very common, it doesn't make them any easier to navigate. Understanding the root cause of these issues can help us find relief from symptoms and help us build a foundation of compassion and understanding.

Grounded in client-centered therapy, I aim to provide a safe space for optimal and holistic growth for my clients. I believe in meeting clients where they are and working with them to get them where they want to be. I understand that therapy can be a big step, and hope that we are able to provide you with what you seek.

It takes courage to tell your story, be vulnerable, and practice introspection. But as the old saying goes, “a problem shared is a problem halved.” Whether you’re experiencing challenges in your relationships, family, career, health, or questioning your life path, we’ll work together to find a solution. I’m a Counselor and Life Coach who supports people during life transitions—including marriage, divorce, career changes, motherhood, and grief and loss. Whatever you’re going through, I’ll be a compassionate listener who reframes the situation and so you can see it in a different, more positive, light.

I believe that everyone has the right to feel healthy and energetic. Stress often interferes with this; it doesn't have to be that way. A warm, professional approach and a variety of bio-behavioral techniques can provide just the support necessary to help people be the very best they can be. I am personally in recovery from a 13 year Migraine headache and anxiety condition; biofeedback, creative arts and counseling helped me to put this debilitating set of symptoms into remission without the use of medications. I am living testimonial to the effectivenss of the complementary therapeutic approach to health.
