Find a therapist in Jamestown, NY — covered by insurance

Hello! I am Jing An, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with nearly a decade of experience in hospitals and community health centers throughout New York City. I have spent much of my career serving as a bridge for families navigating the complexities of the healthcare and special education systems, and I currently lead trauma service initiatives for children and adolescents.

Whether you are a parent managing the emotional stress of a child’s special needs, a young adult navigating a major life transition, or someone seeking a safe space to process trauma, I am here to help you rediscover your resilience. I also offer therapy in both English and Mandarin, ensuring that care is accessible and culturally resonant for the communities I serve.

I’ve always been drawn to helping others and knew early on that I wanted to become a therapist. I enjoy listening and feel inspired by people who are motivated to grow and improve their lives. My experience includes case management, leading groups in an inpatient mental health setting, and several years providing one-on-one therapy in both school and clinical settings. These roles have given me a broad perspective on the challenges people face. My true passion is working one-on-one with individuals, supporting their growth and helping them create meaningful and lasting change. I’ve trained in CBT, DBT, EMDR, somatic approaches, and work related to relationships and parenting.

I am a compassionate and dedicated Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner committed to providing high-quality mental health care to individuals. I strive to help patients achieve emotional wellness, stability, and improved quality of life.

My approach to care is patient-centered, evidence-based, and collaborative. I believe in building trusting relationships with patients, families, and caregivers while creating individualized treatment plans that address both mental and physical health needs. I am experienced in managing conditions such as anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, ADHD, PTSD, schizophrenia, mood disorders, behavioral disorders, and other complex psychiatric conditions.

I also bring valuable experience working with children and adolescents facing emotional, behavioral, developmental, and academic challenges. I am skilled in evaluating and treating conditions such as ADHD, anxiety disorders, depression, oppositional behaviors, trauma-related disorders, autism spectrum-related concerns, and mood dysregulation. I work closely with parents, guardians, schools, therapists, and pediatric providers to create comprehensive treatment plans that support emotional growth, school success, and family functioning.

In addition, I have extensive experience working with geriatric populations and individuals living with dementia, Alzheimer’s disease, and other neurocognitive disorders. I am skilled in assessing cognitive decline and managing behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia such as agitation, aggression, anxiety, depression, sleep disturbance, and psychosis, while promoting dignity, safety, and quality of life. I collaborate closely with families, caregivers, nursing staff, and interdisciplinary teams to develop supportive care plans and provide education regarding disease progression, behavioral strategies, and medication options.

Hi there! I’m a Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) dedicated to helping adults navigate life’s transitions, stress, and mental health challenges.

My practice blends precise medical management with supportive, evidence-based therapy to look at you as a whole person, not just a list of symptoms. I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, mood disorders, and ADHD, with a particular focus on young adults and professionals navigating career, academic, or personal life changes.

I have worked for over 20 years in private practice and within the school system with children. My training consisted of psychodynamic and psychoanalytic method and different approaches in child psychology. I'm also a practicing artist with Master's degree in painting from Pratt Institute. My varied background means I understand and appreciate people. And yet what matters most is that, knowing yourself gives you the freedom to productively navigate your life. Getting to know yourself is the road less traveled. It’s a privilege only you can give yourself.

I received my B.A. in Psychology at Macaulay Honors College, CUNY, and my M.Ed. and M.A. in Mental Health Counseling at Teachers College, Columbia University.

After graduating, I have been working as a therapist since 2021 with a specialty in the LGBTQ+ community. I have worked with depressive, anxiety (generalized, OCD), ADHD, mood, personality disorders and disordered eating. Experience includes working with issues of self esteem, stress, relationships, parenting, gender, identity, race/ethnicity, immigration, grief, trauma, substances, habits, motivation, focus and attention.

My interests and clinical focuses include self-care, minority body image, Latinx mental health, psychosis in youth, and am passionate about self-acceptance/love. I created and use the motto "Write your own narrative" in my annual bootcamp as a reminder that we each have our own story and control over it.

Hi Im Melissa! I've been a mental health counselor for over 6 years. I love hearing your story and working with you to unravel patterns in thought and behavior and learn new skills for healthier living. I have special experience working with individuals with anxiety disorders and chronic ailments.

In my time working with patients, I have noticed two common denominators. Suffering and change. We all suffer in our own way. Wants we cannot have. Love that is unreciprocated. Thoughts that won’t leave us alone. These things are the inherent challenges of life. The magnitude of our suffering is matched only by the capacity we have for change. To change our mood. To change our way of thinking. To change the way we interact with others. To change the way we interact with ourselves. No matter the change, it starts with knowing it is possible and identifying the first step needed. Reach out today and we will take that first step.

I have experience working with individuals with anxiety, depression, trauma, personality disorders, relationship issues, and many other concerns. Using an eclectic style of therapy, I pull from different approaches to meet the needs and goals of each person. Underlying any approach is a culturally competent foundation of empathetic support.

In session, you will have a safe place to process and learn how to cope with what is happening outside of session. You will be supported unconditionally. Together, we will work to better understand the changes that are needed to be the best version of yourself.
