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

Hi, I’m James. I’ve worked as a psychotherapist developing positive client relationships since 2005.

Helping you reduce anxiety levels with breathwork and improve physical health with mindfulness and meditation techniques.

I’ve learned cognitive-behavioral treatments to assist you with overcoming addiction and anger management. And (how to) provide in-depth talk and mental health therapy for children, adolescents, adults, and families.

At Rusk Therapy, each relationship between therapist and patient is individual and implements a variety of treatments. Once a course of action is agreed upon, we’ll approach therapy by incorporating the whole mind-body approach.

That includes the relationship between mental, emotional, and physical health, along with incorporating nutrition, supplements, and exercise. Working together, you can create an improved lifestyle that supports your best life.

The process of a successful therapeutic relationship depends on your effort and our compatibility, along with clear boundaries and feeling safe.

I believe it’s essential to find the right therapist, and doing this takes a phone call, a first session, or a few sessions. I welcome you to schedule a complimentary call to explore a possible therapeutic relationship.

I hold a Master’s in Music Therapy from NYU, am a Board Certified Music Therapist (MT-BC), and a Licensed Creative Arts Therapist (LCAT). I am also certified in DARe (Dynamic Attachment Re-Patterning), integrating somatic and attachment work for deeper trauma resolution. My trauma imformed approach was profoundly shaped by a decade of work in foster care and with children on the autism spectrum, as well as a Fulbright Senior Research Scholarship in Kolkata, India.

In my private practice, I offer individual psychotherapy and Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP), having facilitated over 400 KAP sessions—an effort recognized with Journey Clinical’s Trailblazer Award. Above all, my focus remains on helping clients gain personal clarity, self-understanding, and sustainable growth.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I have focused the majority of my career on youth and young adults. I love working with young people as they navigate the challenges of personality development, family relationships, and exploring their place in the world beyond the family. My clinical judgment and practice strategies are guided by over twenty years of work with a wide variety of clients and circumstances. As a social worker in a lively high school and a parent of two young adults, I am very comfortable building rapport with the full gamut of adolescent personalities.

I am very excited to support clients in all developmental life stages as they work through clinical and non-clinical issues. These include depression, anxiety, trauma, divorce, grief and loss, life and career transitions, relationships, parenting, family dynamics, and aging.

I’m Ebony Edouard, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) and Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP-BC) dedicated to providing compassionate, individualized mental health care. My background in both psychiatric and primary care allows me to consider the connection between emotional and physical well-being. I provide psychiatric evaluations and medication management for adults experiencing depression, anxiety, ADHD, bipolar disorder, PTSD, insomnia, and other mental health concerns. My goal is to help clients feel supported, understood, and empowered throughout their treatment.

Hi there and welcome!

My priority is supporting clients on their journeys towards personal healing & growth.

In 2010, I received my MSW/LMSW. While doing outpatient clinical work at the NYC non-profit agency JBFCS, I became an LCSW. In 2016, I began to establish my private psychotherapy practice, focusing on young and professional adults presenting with a broad variety of life challenges.

Hello, and welcome! I'm a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) dedicated to providing compassionate, evidence-based care for children, adolescents, and adults experiencing a wide range of mental health conditions.

My approach to psychiatric care begins with listening. I believe every person has a unique story, and understanding your experiences, concerns, and goals is the foundation of effective treatment. My priority is to create a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment where you feel heard, respected, and actively involved in your care.

I take a patient-centered, holistic approach, looking beyond symptoms to understand the whole person. Rather than treating diagnoses alone, we will work together to identify what is causing you the most distress and address it one step at a time. I carefully review your psychiatric history, including previous medications, what has or hasn't worked, and any side effects you've experienced, so we can develop a treatment plan that is individualized, practical, and based on the best available evidence.

My treatment philosophy combines medication management with education, supportive therapy, lifestyle recommendations, and collaborative decision-making. I strive to identify the root causes contributing to your symptoms while helping you build lasting coping skills and improve your overall quality of life.

Above all, patient safety, compassion, and collaboration guide every decision I make. My goal is to build a trusting therapeutic relationship where you feel comfortable asking questions, sharing concerns, and participating in decisions about your care. Together, we'll create a personalized treatment plan that supports your mental wellness and helps you achieve meaningful, lasting progress.

Therapy can be healing, communicative, and an avenue to self-discovery. It can be a way to access social skills, self-expression, and self-awareness.. Whatever the goal, utilizing the power of music as a vehicle towards these processes can be very effective. (Some of my goals and techniques are featured in a Psychology Today article on 2/18/21 "Increase Coping and Resilience by Writing a Song").

Hi, I'm Cynthia! I became a therapist because I believe every person carries strengths they haven't fully met yet. With 10 years of experience, I work with adults navigating trauma, depression, anxiety, and pressures of everyday life. My goal isn't just to help you cope; it's to help you feel genuinely clearer, stronger, and more at home in yourself. I create a space where safety comes first and your story is heard without judgement. If you're ready to take the next step, I'd love to work with you.
