Hi! I'm Dr. Renee Clauselle. I'm a down to earth psychologist that has been in practice for over 20 years. I am passionate about my client's personal growth. My specialties include, but are not limited to treatment of anxiety, depression, life transitions, attachment styles, self worth, parenting, and more. I'm a former professor at St. John's University and a media psychologist for GMA. Check out some of my appearances on Youtube @dr.reneeclauselle1571.
I specialize in working with clients who feel stuck in patterns they can recognize but struggle to change, such as overthinking, repeating unhealthy relationship dynamics, difficulty regulating emotions, or feeling overwhelmed despite “knowing better.” Many have done therapy before and have insight, but want support translating that awareness into real, lasting shifts. My approach integrates psychotherapy with somatic work to help regulate and rewire the nervous system so change is not just understood but experienced. For clients who feel blocked or unable to move forward, I also offer emerging neurofeedback to support deeper brain based change and neuroplasticity. I work with diverse populations and tailor treatment to meet each client where they are while guiding them toward meaningful, sustainable growth.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Poughkeepsie, NY
Finding therapists in Poughkeepsie starts with knowing what kind of support you want and which therapist may fit your needs. You may want help with anxiety, depression, grief, relationship concerns, work stress, or a major life transition. As you compare Poughkeepsie therapists, look for specialties, therapy styles, and experience that match what you want to address. A therapist’s profile can also show whether they use approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care.
In a smaller city like Poughkeepsie, local in-person options may be more limited than in larger parts of New York. Virtual appointments can expand your search while still letting you choose a therapist licensed in New York. You may also want to filter by appointment times, whether a therapist is accepting new clients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading bios before booking can help you understand how each therapist structures sessions, communicates, and supports people with concerns similar to yours.
Therapy in Poughkeepsie can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make ongoing care more affordable. Headway helps you find therapists in Poughkeepsie, NY who take insurance, show estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book, and offer virtual or in-person sessions. You can browse therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
