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.
As a Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, I partner with children, teens, and families to provide comprehensive, compassionate mental health care. My practice specializes in the evaluation, diagnosis, and treatment of ADHD, anxiety, Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD), depression, and OCD. I believe in looking at the whole child, blending evidence-based medical management with therapeutic support to help your child thrive at home, in school, and in life.
What uniquely informs my psychiatric practice is my foundational background in pediatric neurology. This specialized experience allows me to deeply understand the complex intersection between brain development, neurological functioning, and behavioral health. When treating conditions like ADHD or OCD, I look beyond surface-level symptoms to understand the underlying neurological drivers, allowing me to create highly precise, targeted treatment plans that standard approaches might miss.
If you find yourself overthinking conversations, getting stuck in the same relationship patterns, struggling to set boundaries, or feeling overwhelmed during conflict, you're not alone. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling frustrated by reactions they can't seem to change, whether that's shutting down, people-pleasing, becoming emotionally reactive, or replaying interactions long after they've happened. I'm a down-to-earth therapist who values genuine connection and practical solutions and I work with individuals and families who want to better understand their patterns and create healthier relationships.
Hi, I'm Linda. I'm a licensed mental health counselor who works with adolescents, adults, couples, and families to help them navigate relationship challenges, life transitions, trauma, grief, loss, and mood disruptions. I obtained my Master's in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from SUNY New Paltz and specialize in couples work, utilizing an Emotionally Focused Therapy approach.
I have been in practice since 2013 and worked with people from all walks of life. I am sensitive to context, goal oriented and will work with you to find a solution that works for you.
I help people navigate life, as they seek to better understand why they are in the place they find themselves, who they are in relation to the world and others, and where they would like to be.
Therapy is a collaborative process, and a strong therapeutic relationship is key to meaningful progress and lasting change. My approach is grounded in a strengths-based, client-centered perspective that supports each person’s capacity for growth and self-understanding. I strive to create a supportive, compassionate, and nonjudgmental space where you can openly explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences at a pace that feels comfortable for you. Whether you are navigating life transitions, managing stress, or seeking greater self-awareness, therapy can provide a space for reflection, healing, and meaningful change.
I am a Board-Certified Family Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 11 years of experience as a Psychiatric Registered Nurse. I provide compassionate, evidence-based care to individuals across the lifespan.
I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, ADHD, mood disorders, and trauma-related conditions. My approach is patient-centered and collaborative, creating a safe and nonjudgmental space where you feel heard and supported.
I offer medication management along with supportive therapy, psychoeducation, and guidance on lifestyle changes to promote overall mental wellness.
My goal is to help you achieve stability, build resilience, and improve your quality of life. I look forward to working with you on your mental health journey.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Couples Therapist in New York
Searching for couples therapists in New York starts with what you and your partner want to work on together. Couples therapy can support communication patterns, recurring conflict, trust after infidelity, major life changes, and parenting disagreements. Needs and available therapists can vary across urban and rural parts of New York, so it helps to look for training that matches your situation. Some therapists are licensed marriage and family therapists, and others list specific couples approaches, such as the Gottman Method or emotionally focused therapy, in their profiles.
Finding one therapist who works for both partners can take more coordination than an individual search. In New York City, Buffalo, Albany, and other parts of the state, consider whether in-person sessions or virtual appointments fit both schedules. You may also want to compare appointment availability, session structure, and whether a therapist offers a brief initial consultation to assess fit for couples. Reading therapist bios can help you understand how they describe their role, communication style, and experience with relationship concerns before you book.
The cost of couples therapy in New York can vary, and using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to lower session costs. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, and you can confirm coverage based on your location and plan. Browse New York couples therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
