Clients often describe me as warm, thoughtful, and direct. I aim to create a space where you feel understood and supported, while also gently challenged to grow. I believe therapy should feel collaborative, not judgmental, not passive, and not surface-level.
I have been practicing therapy for the past ten plus years, but let's be honest, I was born a therapist. I have had the opportunity to learn that we all grow together and are blessed to take this mysterious journey in our own unique way. I have lived and learned experience, as well as extensive education and training. I began my adult career as a police officer and then returned to college as an adult learner. I graduated from Keuka College with my BSW and Syracuse University with my MSW and an advanced certification in trauma. I have worked with all ages and population but primarily with addiction, trauma processing, and self-esteem issues.
At the end of the day, I am here to listen, guide, and help you learn the value of your own experiences. I specialize in trauma, addiction, depression, anxiety and mood disorders but I am also familiar with self-harm, self-image, and self-esteem issues. My goal is to help you recognize your worth, set goals, learn coping skills and strategize positive daily living. If you are ready to make moves for a better tomorrow, I am ready to help. I am trained in CBT, mindfulness, DBT, motivational interviewing, with advanced specialties in trauma informed care. Let's change the narrative on tomorrow. I look forward to connecting and working with you!
Are you ready to make a change in your life? It takes courage to ask for help, but the rewards of doing so can lead to a lifetime of fulfillment. I understand and have experienced the emotional challenges life has to offer. In working together, we will cultivate growth by understanding the obstacles that you face and develop solutions that can help you gain control of your life and achieve your goals.
I know well that starting therapy can feel formidable and thoroughly overwhelming, and on occasion, the absolute hardest step of all is merely beginning. In spite of that, you are here, and you are actively setting out on your personal journey to heal and reconstruct. I warmly invite the opportunity to communicate with you and learn how I might best help you. My professional style is kind, deeply empathetic, and shared.
Hi! My name is Samantha and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I believe that seeking support is one of the strongest and bravest things a person can do. Navigating all of life's ups and downs can feel scary and isolating. Whether is it day to day anxieties, relationship challenges, life transitions or just feeling stuck.

My background has allowed me to support individuals through a wide range of challenges, including grief, depression, anxiety, relationship concerns, and major life transitions.

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 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 Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 15 years experience and a Doctorate in Social Work, I offer compassionate, evidence-based support for adolescents, adults and families navigating stress, anxiety, trauma, relationship challenges, and life transitions.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Family Therapist in Yonkers
Finding family therapists in Yonkers starts with understanding what your family is working through together. Family therapy can support concerns like parenting conflict, adolescent struggles, blended family dynamics, and communication breakdowns across generations. Family therapists are trained to look at patterns between family members, rather than focusing only on one person. As you compare therapists, look for listed experience with family systems, parent-child relationships, conflict resolution, or related approaches that match your needs.
Yonkers offers access to therapists across a mid-sized local market, with additional options nearby and through virtual appointments. Some families prefer an in-person office for shared sessions, while others choose virtual care to make scheduling easier across school, work, and caregiving routines. Session attendance may include the full family, a parent and child, partners in a caregiving role, or individual family members. Review therapist bios before booking to see how each therapist structures family sessions, whether they offer flexible availability, and whether a free phone consultation is available.
Family therapy in Yonkers can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Nationally, Headway partners with 100+ insurance plans, and you can enter your insurance details on Headway to review estimated out-of-pocket costs in Yonkers and book directly when you’re ready. Every therapist listed is accepting new patients, making it easier to find someone who matches your needs, accepts your plan, and has availability that works for your family.
If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
