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.

I am so glad you are here!

I have decades of experience in counseling and psychology. Upon moving to New York 8 years ago, I began my private practice where I can spend more time with each individual. Previously, in Florida, I worked in the juvenile justice and foster care systems, primarily with adolescent girls. My focus now is working with women struggling with issues related to anxiety, relational issues, and trauma, to name a few. My passion for this work stems from sharing my knowledge and skills to assist in my clients' goals. Helping people uncover resilience, reclaim agency, and thrive is a gift I cherish daily.

Kerri Kenyon

Therapist

Virtual • New York


My clinical areas of expertise include anxiety, depression, marital issues, codependency, self-esteem, women’s issues, substance abuse, harm reduction, grief, LGBTQIA+ concerns, Veterans, first responders, correctional officers, law enforcement, and transitional concerns. As an Army Veteran myself, I have a personal understanding of the unique experiences, challenges, and transitions that can come with military service and working in high-stress professions. I value the opportunity to support Veterans, first responders, correctional officers, police officers, and their families. Through evidence-based approaches, I aim to tailor my treatment approach to the specific needs of each individual. I believe in helping individuals build on their strengths, gain insight, and develop effective coping skills for everyday life.

Sharing the same passion for helping others and fighting against the stigma of mental health, my focus is to improve lives, facilitate emotional regulation, and support the overall wellness of my clients. Through life’s complexities, I have come to understand that no matter the struggle life presents us, there is always a silver lining.
