Dr. Arielle Jean-Pierre

Dr. Arielle Jean-Pierre

Psychologist

Virtual • New York


I’m a licensed psychologist with more than 12 years of clinical training and experience working with adults and adolescents. Through a trauma-informed lens, I help clients navigate ADHD, strengthen their self-worth, deepen their relationships, and challenge messages that have taught them to make themselves small. I especially enjoy supporting women and gender-expansive people of color. Clients often describe me as warm, casual, curious, and gently direct.

Therapist

Virtual • New York


Hello!

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over eighteen years of experience supporting individuals through challenging times. My clinical practice is shaped by a diverse background in teaching, mental health counseling, community-based social work, domestic violence consulting, and family case planning within the Family Treatment Rehabilitation program. Throughout my career, I have worked with at-risk children and adolescents, parents, families affected by mental health issues, survivors of intimate partner violence, and the geriatric population. I love working with a wide range of groups, and I find it especially rewarding to focus on empowering my clients.

To maintain personal balance and stay inspired outside of my career, I fill my free time with nature walks, travel, cultural events, and my morning yoga routine.

Since the beginning of my career as a mental health professional, I have practiced with one main idea at the core of all my work: healing is not linear. Whether this is your first time searching for new ways to heal, or you’re an experienced client of psychotherapy, I first and foremost hope you’ll allow yourself to feel gratitude for all the work you’ve done to get to where you are right now in your life’s journey.

Psychologist

Virtual • New York


Hi, I'm Kristina. I work with people navigating anxiety, trauma, identity, and the weight that builds up when life gets genuinely hard. That includes LGBTQ+ youth and adults, adolescents with disabilities, couples, people of color, and clients who have felt like the system was not

built with them in mind. My approach is integrative and strengths-based, with CBT and trauma-informed care at the core, and I show up with genuine empathy and honest

directness. I have received training in exposure and response prevention, psychoeducational testing, and family and forensic psychology, and I have worked with couples, court-mandated individuals, and clients who struggle financially. Reach out when you are ready. (Psy.D.,

Hofstra University 2022; MA, Teachers College Columbia 2015.)

Nicole Devens

Therapist

Virtual • New York


Navigating the journey life takes us can be stressful and challenging. Sometimes we push aside our experiences, thoughts and feelings in order to move through the world, which can lead to feeling disconnected from yourself or others. As a licensed clinical therapist, I specialize in working with young children and adults who experience difficulty with life transitions, parental stress, self-esteem, relationship conflict and trauma.

I am passionate about creating a safe, supportive space where you feel truly seen and understood. Together, we can work towards gaining a sense of reconnection, identity and control while developing healthy coping strategies and healthier relationships with yourself and the people around you.
