I am a licensed psychologist in New York, Florida and Connecticut and certified by PSYPACT to provide telehealth services to clients in states participating in PSYPACT. I provide treatment for adolescents and adults across the lifespan using cognitive behavior therapy. Treatment is time-limited, goal-directed and structured. My approach is collaborative, respectful, compassionate and logical. I introduce ways to actively cope when in distress, how to gain broader perspective, improve problem-solving skills, and develop the confidence to persevere when dealing with life's various challenges.

You deserve a thoughtful and encouraging partner in your care. As a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner with outpatient experience, I help adults, particularly those seeking culturally responsive care and comprehensive evaluations, navigate anxiety, depression, mood disorders, trauma, and life transitions. My approach is evidence-based, collaborative, and trauma-informed, as I am passionate about making sure you feel heard, supported, and empowered to understand your mental health and treatment options. I believe in meeting you with respect, curiosity, and compassion, which is why your mental health journey takes place in a supportive environment that incorporates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy-informed strategies, psychoeducation, and medication management to help you build insight. My style as a thoughtful and collaborative partner is warm, structured, and tailored to your unique needs and goals, so you gain clarity, stability, and confidence during our work together. For five years I worked as a mental health technician and CNA, an experience that revealed the acute impact of mental health struggles up close. Witnessing the value of providing compassionate, patient-centered care deepened my own commitment to bringing a grounded, observant perspective and deep respect for each person’s lived experience to every session. My free time is all about discoveries and creativity! I enjoy traveling to new and favorite destinations, staying active, exploring music and culture, and checking out other creative outlets.

Based on my experience, the students I work most effectively with often face similar challenges, especially as they adapt to college life and cope with stress or feeling overwhelmed. These individuals tend to find value in receiving support and guidance while adjusting to the demands of their new academic and social surroundings. I've found that my approach works best for those who are looking for practical ways to manage stress, improve time management, and build resilience in both academic and personal aspects of their lives. Through establishing a supportive and understanding therapeutic connection as well as medication management, my goal is to empower students to tackle their college journey with confidence and strength.

Hi, I’m Jennifer Shrier, a psychotherapist specializing in working with college students, young adults, and adults. I understand that the college years can be both exciting and overwhelming — a time of transition, pressure, identity development, relationship challenges, and increasing independence. My approach to therapy is warm, collaborative, and supportive. I aim to create a space where clients feel comfortable being themselves and talking openly about what they’re going through, without judgment. I work with students navigating anxiety, stress, depression, self-esteem concerns, relationship issues, academic pressure, life transitions, and questions around identity and direction. In therapy, I believe the relationship itself is important. I strive to help clients feel understood while also building insight, coping skills, resilience, and greater self-awareness. My style is thoughtful and engaged, and I tailor treatment to each individual’s needs and goals. Reaching out for support can feel difficult, and I value creating a space where students can feel safe, supported, and empowered as they navigate this stage of life.

My passion for therapy began with my own personal experience in counseling. Through my work with my individual therapist, I came to understand therapy as a tool to help people transform their lives. This experience showed me firsthand the value of providing supportive care and positive regard to patients who may struggle to view themselves kindly. In my care now, I remain committed to that value, bringing genuine compassion and authenticity to each session. When I’m not seeing patients, I love to unwind by sitting down with a good book, playing the piano, and spending time with my adorable cat, Finn.

As a mental health counselor dedicated to helping patients cultivate clarity and confidence, I specialize in treating children, adolescents, young adults, and adults. My goal is to help you navigate anxiety, trauma, depression, burnout, life transitions, and/or identity explorations so you live your life fully and authentically. I believe that you are the expert on your life and that everyone is capable of growth and change, which helps me be a supportive and motivational partner to you in the therapy room. I look forward to being a part of your transformative growth in our work together. I’m passionate about helping you know yourself better, increase your psychological flexibility, and find your inner strength. We achieve this together in a collaborative and empathetic environment that incorporates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to guide you in identifying and understanding your core beliefs and patterns, and becoming aware of how these are serving or not serving you. My style is eclectic, collaborative, and person-centered so that care is tailored to your unique needs. My career began with the desire to be a teacher, a path that inspired me to help people learn more about themselves and how to interact with the world around them, not just within school subjects. This experience, along with time spent working with children, adolescents, and families who are or who have been involved in the legal, justice, and child welfare systems, led me to pursue counseling. In my role now as a therapist, I’m committed to using the knowledge and wisdom gained throughout my journey by providing evidence-based mental health care that meets people where they’re at through warmth and humor. I enjoy filling my free time with friends, family, and loved ones. You’ll also often find me scrapbooking and crocheting, or out and about going for walks, spending time outside, and listening to live music.

Are you emotionally drained from holding everything together? You may struggle with overthinking, people-pleasing, shutting down, or feeling like you're “too much.” I help young adults understand the patterns that keep them feeling stuck and disconnected. Together, we’ll make sense of your inner life, relationships, and the ways you’ve learned to protect yourself over time. My style, is compassionate, collaborative, and engaged. It's important to me that we create a relationship where all parts of you feel welcome and safe enough to make the changes you want. I’ve trained in relational psychodynamic therapy with children and adults, and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) for couples. I believe our early relationships shape us and that healing happens through new relational experiences. In our work, we'll make space to be curious about feelings, thoughts, behaviors, and dynamics that often happen out of awareness. You're welcome to contact me here to schedule a free 15-minute consultation call. I’ll reply within 24 hours. You can also book time directly through the link on my own website. We'll talk about your goals, questions, and any concerns you might have. If we decide we're not a good fit, I’ll gladly offer a referral.

As a social worker and psychotherapist with 8 years of experience, I offer collaborative, open, and nonjudgmental care for people interested in coming into deeper relationships with their full selves. I particularly enjoy working with caregivers, artists, neurodivergent individuals, LGBTQ+ folks, and creative people who are navigating questions about identity, relationships, and belonging. Many come to therapy burdened by beliefs that stem from systemic oppression, trauma, or early relational experiences. They may struggle with anxiety, self-doubt, dissociation, or the pressure to care for others at the expense of themselves. They’re looking for a space where they can slow down, tune-in, and make sense of their inner world. Their goals may include building more authentic relationships, developing greater self-compassion, and finding ways to live and create in a more full and embodied way. If this resonates with your search for greater mental wellness, please reach out today. I look forward to building a connection as your honest and participatory partner, embarking on this journey together through a systems-based and anti-oppressive lens tailored to your unique strengths and desires for change. I offer a therapeutic holding environment grounded in careful listening, curiosity, and the shared messiness and delight of being human. My work is relational and psychodynamic, meaning we explore how past and present relationships shape our emotional lives while working together toward deeper self-understanding, greater self-compassion, and more freedom in how you relate to yourself and others. Therapy with me makes room for opposites – we can acknowledge the patterns that helped you survive, and that they might be causing you difficulty right now. We can hold grief and hope in the same hour. And, we can move slowly and intentionally through these contradictions together. I am dedicated to bringing warmth, honesty, and a bit of humor into the room as we explore these patterns and emotions, including how they show up between us and in the words you choose. While we do this deeper work, I integrate Dialectal Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills to support you in concretely managing day-to-day challenges and holding the immense complexity this world has to offer us. My path to becoming a therapist began with providing home visits to LGBTQ+ older adults. In this work, I became familiar with the unique challenges and resiliencies that queer people and communities build over their lifespans. This experience deepened my commitment to providing open, nonjudgemental, and trauma-informed care. This is assured by listening with a careful presence that is affirming of kink, sex work, and polyamory in every session. In my free time, I love expressing my creative side through crafts like knitting and embroidery, reading, and cooking. I also enjoy spending time with my foster cats!
