Therapists in Monticello, NY

Accepting new clients as of 5/1, night and weekend telehealth appts available. Hi! I'm Jen King and I am Licensed Clinical Social Worker at Empowered and Resilient Minds. I enjoy getting to know and working with diverse clients from many different walks of life.

I am a strengths based therapist who aims to work with a client from where they are at the beginning of our work together and help you to reach your therapeutic goals. I hope to provide you with support and empower you to learn skills that will help you to navigate life successfully after our work together is completed.

Are you sick and tired of being sick and tired? Do you feel trapped in a pattern of addiction, compulsive behavior, hopelessness, stress, or sadness? Are you ready to regain control over your emotions and improve your outlook on life? Perhaps you've tried getting help with your struggles but were failed by a "one size fits all" approach. I offer customized treatment plans that are centered around YOUR individualized goals. Whether you are new to therapy or feel like you've lost hope after multiple attempts to get better, look no further, as I can assure you a unique therapeutic experience that leads to healing and growth!

I am an experienced, thoughtful and caring therapist that will help you overcome or work on any issues, problems or concerns that you are dealing with. I have over 20 years of experience in the mental health field and I have worked with singles, couples, families, seniors, and adolescents. I am empathic and an active listener. I treat all of my clients with unconditional positive regard and respect. I do not believe in a one size fits all therapy approach. Every client is different and has different needs and that is my focus. I work with the entire person to help them improve their mental health and over all well-being.

I am a diverse Systemic Psychotherapist practicing in New Jersey and New York with a specialty in Marriage & Family Therapy. I will work with you to engage in maximizing functioning in your current relationships and how you interact with the world. Together we will work on you creating the narrative you wish to express more authentically in your personal relationships, work environment and your greater relationship circle(s). I have experience working with clients with a strong focus on life transitions, families in crisis, and those shifting careers and engaged in reinvention.

Hello! I am a New York-based clinical psychologist with over 20 year of experience. My specialties include working with anxiety, panic attacks, phobias, depression, relationship issues, anger problems, work issues, and age-related issues. I primarily employ cognitive behavioral therapy approaches to help individuals manage problems and stressors by improving and teaching new skills and ways of viewing themselves and their environments.

I strive to provide therapy within an empathetic, safe, and nonjudgmental space. Together, we will explore the patterns, motivations, and emotional blocks that are preventing you from living your best life. Whatever your challenges, including stressors that come with transitions, anxious loops, negative thoughts, or relationship difficulties, we will work through your experiences together. I understand that every individual is unique, and therefore will create a therapeutic environment that is catered to your needs.

It is through congruence, a genuine ability to empathize and to be compassionate, that I believe is how an organic developing therapeutic relationship manifests. My style’s core foundation revolves around a collaboration between Rogerian Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy (REBT), Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), and Internal Family Systems (IFS). It is with an open heart that I invite you to give yourself an opportunity at enhancing your quality of life through the process of self-discovery.

Are you overwhelmed with constant worry, overthinking, and endless 'what-if' scenarios? Are you unhappy, unmotivated, and unsure about how life has turned out? Is your inner critic harsh and unrelenting- often causing doubts about your self-worth? Do you have concerns about your relationship and wonder if you need to make a change? If you answered yes to any of these questions, I can help. I am a clinical psychologist specializing in the treatment of anxiety, depression, and relationship concerns.

Have you been feeling down or anxious? Do you have marital/relationship stressors and feel like things will never change? Does your child experience behavioral challenges and/or has a hard time communicating/socializing with peers? Perhaps parenting has been overwhelming and you need a safe space to talk and find new ways to manage your emotions and situations?

It's ok if you're not sure about therapy! I hope that our first few sessions together will help clarify what you are looking for and how I can help. I'd like to build a collaborative relationship with you! I have 25 years of professional clinical experience, yet you are a unique individual. I'll share my insights and knowledge with you, but also expect to learn from you. I will often explain what I am wondering and ask you if you think I'm "on to something." I'm curious about you, your culture and your context. I look forward to understanding you, problem solving with you, and being a partner in your healing or self-help journey!

The first step in therapy is having the courage to reach out. You are on the right track by being on here today! You deserve to find someone that you can be open and honest with who will respect and support you on your journey. I strive to be supportive and provide a safe space to collaborate in helping you achieve your goals in therapy.

Transitioning to adulthood can be a confusing time where life goes from black and white to being extremely grey. Adulthood can bring up questions you have never asked yourself, leaving people feeling confused and out of control about who they are.

Knowing where to begin or what the journey will look like can make reaching out for support feel quite daunting. Asking for help can be especially challenging when formative environments have been both diminishing and invalidating of our needs. My goal is to meet you in that moment of outreach and welcome you into a safe and compassionate space where we will deepen insight and develop strategies to help you gain a sense of choice and control in your life.

I work hard to create a safe and inviting space for my clients to work on whichever problems they choose to bring into their sessions. My approach reflects my empathic, nonjudgmental, and compassionate style. I believe that the therapeutic relationship is one of the most important factors in treatment, as I believe that healing happens when there is a strong therapeutic alliance. I collaborate with and empower my clients to harness or reclaim their inner strength and power. I have experience working with adults and teens who struggle with anxiety, depression, relationship stressors, work/life stress, life transitions, and trauma.

I have a passion for helping people reach their full potential. I believe that a supportive therapeutic relationship is key to successful treatment and I strive to help my patients feel comfortable and confident to take the steps to reach their personal goals. I specialize in working with individuals struggling with OCD, Phobias, Panic Disorder, and General Anxiety using exposure & response prevention.
