Book a therapist or psychiatrist in Bohemia, NY covered by Cigna

Hello, my name is Chris Jones and I am a licensed therapist residing in upstate New York. I received my Master’s in Social Work from Syracuse University in 1999 and have been in this field of work ever since. The majority of my experience has been working with teenagers and adults on mental health and environmental challenges.

Si estás cargando algo que se siente demasiado pesado para seguir llevando solo, o simplemente buscas un espacio donde puedas hablar con honestidad sin ser juzgado, puedo ayudarte. Mi camino hacia la terapia nació de una profunda curiosidad por la resiliencia humana y del deseo genuino de acompañar a las personas en sus momentos más difíciles. Durante mi formación de posgrado trabajé con sobrevivientes de trauma, una experiencia que me mostró el poder transformador de la terapia y que fortaleció mi compromiso de caminar junto a otros en sus procesos de sanación. Soy LMHC con mas de 20 años ofreciendo terapia.

I support teens, adults, and couples who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected from themselves or each other. My clients are thoughtful, resilient people seeking a gentle, grounded space where they can feel seen, supported, and safe enough to reconnect with who they truly are—and with the relationships that matter most. People come to me when life feels heavy, when past experiences linger, anxiety builds, or connection feels harder to access, and they’re ready for compassionate support that helps them move forward with more clarity and ease.

Maybe you're struggling with something that happened years ago, navigating a difficult season of life, or watching your child struggle and aren't sure how to help. I work with children, teens, and adults who want to feel understood and make meaningful change. Together, we'll slow things down, make sense of what's happening, and build practical tools for moving forward—at a pace that feels manageable.

I work with adults who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or not quite like themselves. Many of my patients come in with anxiety, depression, mood changes, sleep problems, or difficulty functioning the way they want to in daily life.

My approach is clear, structured, and collaborative. I do more than prescribe medication. I help you understand what may be contributing to your symptoms, what your options are, and what a realistic plan looks like moving forward.

If you’ve ever left an appointment feeling rushed or unsure about what to do next, my goal is to make sure that doesn’t happen here.

I believe everyone deserves a space where they feel seen, heard, understood, and supported. With more than 20 years of experience in mental health, community healthcare, education, and non-profit settings, I've had the privilege of walking alongside adolescents, adults, and families through life's most challenging moments. I understand that seeking therapy can feel vulnerable, and I strive to create a warm, compassionate, and culturally responsive environment where you can show up as your authentic self. My goal is to help you build on your strengths, deepen self-awareness, and move toward a life that feels balanced, fulfilling, and aligned with your values.

Hi! I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with a graduate degree from New York University. I have many years of experience working with adolescents and adults in multiple settings facing various complex mental health issues, including ADHD, trauma, depression, anxiety, insomnia, and mood disorders.

I have a transpersonal & relational background in therapy. I graduated with honors from Adelphi University and went on to earn a second masters from Brooklyn College in mental health counseling. After graduating I trained for 6 years at The Institute for Contemporary Psychotherapy in their Psychotherapy Center for Gender and Sexuality (PCGS). One of my specialities is working with GLBQ and trans/nonbinary individuals, and I have helped many adults of all ages successfully transition genders.

Welcome to A Fresh Start! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who has worked in the Behavioral Health field for the past 20 years. My clinical experience includes working with Individuals, groups, and families,

I believe we can overcome challenges and adversities that may interfere with one's personal growth. Our early experiences and culture shape who we are as individuals, how we see ourselves, and how we interact with others.
