Life is filled with ebbs and flows of transitions and struggles. We are constantly evolving. Life can be both beautiful & messy and I'm humbled & honored to help you sort through it in individual and/or group counseling. Our minds & emotions uniquely shape our perception of reality. No two people have the same experience, and there is no such thing as a "one size fits all" treatment modality. Yet we can also learn & gain from others' perspectives and support. One thing all humans universally experience is the capacity for joy and pain. You are not alone! I draw from an eclectic background of theoretical approaches, absorbing each day as a learning experience to more deeply understand human suffering and, more importantly, witness how resilient people can be. With 20+ years working in the helping profession, I've seen and heard a lot. I will listen without judgment to things that may be difficult to disclose. Do you want to resolve issues rooted in past or present wounds & break patterns that are no longer serving you? You are worthy of the opportunity to slow down, be still, reflect on, & process your mental, emotional, physical, & spiritual concerns. Now is the time to celebrate your potential. You've got this! You are not alone.

I am a New York State licensed clinical social work psychotherapist with post graduate training from an institute for psychotherapy in NYC. In addition, I am a trained life coach. I have a long career in private practice in New York and Florida as well as Rome, Italy where I lived for 12 years working specifically with the expat community. As a private practitioner, my work also entailed being an adjunct instructor, trainer, presenter, workshop leader and consultant. When one thinks about going into therapy, it is fraught with conflict and indecision about do I really need it, will it help, can I afford it and how do I choose a therapist? But once that decision is made, it can be freeing. It takes a great deal of strength and willingness to explore and understand oneself. But in doing so, one can gain insight, develop strategies and coping mechanisms to overcome one's issues. This is the path we would go on together. My approach in dealing with clients is eclectic. I use a variety of different techniques such as cognitive behavioral therapy, hypnotherapy, psycho dynamic, solution focused, client centered and mindfulness to name a few. I strongly believe that one modality does not work for everyone and it is incumbent upon me to discover the techniques that will help each individual and their needs. This is why my style of providing therapy is supportive and one where I tailor my interventions to match the unique qualities, beliefs and issues of each individual. With a variety of disciplines, I can help each individual create a clear vision of their future goals and develop their own resources and experiences to achieve those goals.

30 years of experience

Hello, I'm David. As a seasoned Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 30 years of experience, I've dedicated my career to helping individuals and families navigate life's challenges. My compassionate and holistic approach focuses on strengths and identifying growth opportunities. Let's work together to build resilience and find healing." David takes the client’s dignity, their values and their lives with high esteem. I believe that we need to identify and respect all the differences that humanity must offer. I spent much of my profession working with children and families as well as individuals who self-referred. My specialties in treatment focused on the beginning stages of development, whether observed through the child, or reported by the adult. The architects I grew throughout I am well read and use the material from Jeffrey Young, Erick Erickson, John Brown, Margaret Mahler, Donald Winnicott, Kohler, and many others. Often, I keep the body of Theoretical information as a backdrop in my head and find the details may be TMI…too much information at the time with the client. I diligently make every effort to engage with those I treat and have a standard of undivided attention during sessions. I make every effort to learn about the person, with the understanding that my recommendations and therapy will only be effective when they own it and use the strategies within their own language. My belief is that “There is no such thing as a bad kid.” They may make bad choices and use poor judgment at times. Additionally, “There is no such thing as a bad parent.” (Caveat: my understanding of “bad” has become more vivid and present) I don’t treat those who have no regard to others or themselves. This condition has been popularized more in the recent past. Telehealth does not offer the necessary platform for that population. I am the sole owner for Rejoyce all People since November 2006. My private practice supplemented my formal employment through to March 2021. In March I have been contracted with BetterHelp. Rejoyce all People is currently on hold based on my sole involvement with BetterHelp. I welcome all those who read about me. Come onboard and experience the first session. I believe in “No Thank You Bites.” If we don’t match, I want you to meet with another of the multiple BetterHelp therapists. I believe that my past experiences offer you with an opportunity of a lifetime. Treating anxiety and depression and their counterparts. Specialty in PTSD and past life's significant struggles, relational problems, personality disorders, couples and family therapy, life's transitions, caregivers for those requiring additional supervision, so many other situations and circumstances. 4.7/5 Stars Following are a few Customer Feedback Statements: • David is a great therapist, I find it very easy to chat with him . I always feel at ease when we are talking,. • Great communication. He definitely puts effort in when he sees your efforts or interest in treatment. • He has a great way of helping me to think about things from a different perspective and see situations in a new light. He helps me to see that I don’t need to place blame on myself for situations I cannot control. • David has been wonderful with my son and appreciates everything • David has been great to work with. He has helped me and is still helping me work through many self-esteem and self-worth issues, along with past traumas that have influenced a lot of my adult life. I truly recommend him to anyone. • I'm very happy that I got matched with David; I'm always looking forward to our sessions, and the things I learn about myself in therapy make my everyday life better and easier. • David is very open-minded and makes us feel comfortable. He understands the roots of healthy relationships and makes us thrive for our better selves. • I quickly developed a trusting relationship with David, which allowed us to get to work on the real issues quickly. Thank you!! • David makes us both feel heard and understood, and he is so helpful to us. I trust him to work with the issues at hand in a compassionate yet professional and helpful manner. He is top-notch, and I’m very grateful that he has come into our lives at a time when we needed him. Thank you, David. David is a great counselor. He has been able to help me walk through some things, giving me really good insight. It obvious he listens well. One thing i really appreciate about David is he is well read in ancient literature and that brings about wisdom from the ages that has lasted over the centuries and is also informed by modern science. He is a great person.

Frequently asked questions (FAQs) about therapists and mental health services

Some other commonly asked questions on therapy with a licensed counselor and BetterHelp serving the Sharon Springs area can be found below:

How does the cost of in-person counseling with a therapist compare to the cost of BetterHelp with a licensed Sharon Springs therapist?

The average price of an in-person therapy session in the US with most therapists is $100 to $200 per hour. These prices may be higher in Sharon Springs due to a higher cost of living, and a limited number of therapists taking new clients. The price also depends on the type of provider you are looking for. See the following average prices for various mental health providers without insurance:

  • Counseling with a psychiatrist: $150-$500
  • Counseling with therapists: $100-300
  • Therapy with a psychologist: $100

While many psychologists in Sharon Springs may not take health insurance, some in the state of New York may work on a sliding scale, meaning they'll factor in your income and charge what you can afford per session. With a BetterHelp therapist throughout the state of New York you can expect significantly more affordable options, with therapists sessions ranging from $65 to $100 per week (billed every four weeks). 

How is a licensed therapist on this Sharon Springs online therapy platform verified?

All of these psychology clinicians have a Masters Degree or a Doctorate Degree in their field of psychology sciences, and follow the APA Code of Ethics. Therapists have been qualified and certified by their state's professional board after successfully completing the necessary education, exams, training and practice with a patient, and extensive experience in a healthcare clinic or treatment centers, in order to become a mental health provider. While their lived experience, expertise, careers, and background vary, therapists here all possess at least 3 years and 1,000 hours of hands-on experience with adult and sometimes teen patients, and have the necessary therapist credentials to provide a safe space for long lasting emotional healing in therapy.

How do I know if online counseling is right for my family in Sharon Springs?

One of the potentially rewarding aspects of working with a Sharon Springs therapist is the validation and active listening they can provide. Your friends and loved ones may also be available to listen, but you may feel that they may lack the skills to provide objective guidance. Counselors and therapists are trained to respond to various concerns, symptoms, and mental health conditions.

Therapists in your city can support you toward a healthier emotional state, regardless of your mental health, life concerns, or healing needs. While supporting individuals in developing healthier habits, another good benefit of Sharon Springs therapy is having an understanding, safe space with a non-judgmental party who can support you through challenging experiences.

Many people have sensitive topics that they may feel ashamed to discuss with their friends or partner. A Sharon Springs therapist can help you confront these concerns and open up through unique methods of support. There are also many types of therapy, such as art therapy, where you may find you can express yourself through creativity instead of words with a psychotherapist.

With a lot of people in NY, therapists may be booked out with clients. Through the list of profiles or therapists above and others within BetterHelp's team, you may be able to find a psychologist within 24 to 48 hours. If you're searching to find a a nearby psychotherapist close to 13459 or the surrounding zip codes, consider others available through the BetterHelp site where you can schedule a session based on your and the therapist's schedule. No matter if you are seeking help from therapists in your area or beyond, online therapy can be a great option.

How should I prepare for my first therapy session with a Sharon Springs counselor?

Before seeing your Sharon Springs therapist, prep for your session by reading to understand the process. You might write a list of questions you want to ask your psychotherapist, any emotional pain you may feel, and the ways in which you hope to improve. When you attend your session, you can let our therapists know if you have any concerns or feel unsure about what to talk about. Sharon Springs therapists here may help guide you with open-ended therapeutic questions while offering mental health services. The first session will often serve as an intake to get to know you as a person and learn why you're attending therapy.

Should I find a therapist or psychologist for therapy if I feel fine? 

Some simply don't feel the need to see a psychologist. However, some people may avoid attending therapy due to stigma or preconceived notions of what it might entail. Although psychologists often support people with mental health conditions, you do not need a diagnosis or specific condition. You can discuss grief, relationship concerns, stress, or life changes and ask for general feedback. A Sharon Springs licensed clinical social worker may help you gain power over your life and emotions while you navigate day-to-day experiences.

Gaining a new perspective on yourself through various therapies might allow you to improve your self-esteem, work through relationships, and gain a better sense of your mental health goals. The success you may find with a Sharon Springs counselor can be dependent on your process.

People may also attend therapy for specific motives, such as bullying, an autism diagnosis, a desire to learn mindfulness meditation, personality concerns, trouble with office workers, specific phobias, and many other principles that a counselor can help with.

Is mental health care and therapy with a therapist worth it?

Therapy with a licensed counselor is effective and has the power to change individuals' lives. Each client is at a different stage of their emotional healing journey in life, as each human can be unique in their personality, expression, skills, and goals. A psychologist can target various symptoms, experiences, and personalities to help you feel your best and put you on the path to healing. Unlike advice from a friend, family, or non-professional, a mental health therapist has an understanding of various disorders like ADHD and depression with many hours of experience in treating adults in their practice. For this reason, seeing an evidence based psychologist in Sharon Springs, New York can be worth it. Over 41 million adults in the US attend therapy services each year, showing it's a popular option and is proven to be effective.

Sharon Springs has many clinicians who practice person or client-centered individual therapy in-person and through online sessions to assist clients in their healing journey. If you opt into online therapy, you might also be able to meet with providers all over the United States and change therapists easily at any time. Many people struggling with anxiety and depression, substance abuse, body image issues, and more find therapists that are a good fit for them, feel supported, and gain further insight into their lives through internet-based therapy.

Do therapists judge you in therapy sessions during telehealth appointments?

The boundaries between you and a therapist are in place to help you and them regarding ethical concerns. Mental health professionals are held by ethical standards through the American Psychological Association (APA) and are not allowed to judge or harm their clients. If you are concerned about sharing details about yourself, feel free to withhold personal information. Their job in the therapeutic relationship is to create a safe place, help you gain a deeper understanding of your mental health, and support you. You might consider changing counselors if you don't feel safe or respected.
