Who I Help and How I Work

Christine Dempsey LMHC ADHD Therapist in Kingston New York

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in New York State who approaches therapy with collaboration, compassion, and authenticity in mind.

 

If you are struggling with low self-esteem, people-pleasing patterns, difficulty setting boundaries, and feeling stuck in painful or unhelpful thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, I can help you develop self-trust, strengthen self-esteem, prioritize your needs, establish healthy boundaries, and build the skills you need to move through difficult thoughts and feelings with greater flexibility and self-awareness.

​

Using a person-centered, compassionate approach, I integrate cognitive-behavioral and mindfulness-based therapies to help you better understand yourself, clarify what matters most to you, and take meaningful steps toward living more authentically.

 

I also incorporate body-based awareness practices to help you understand how emotions show up physically, what those emotions may be communicating, and how to reconnect with your own internal wisdom.

​

My approach incorporates the following therapy modalities:

​

  • CBT — Cognitive Behavioral Therapy

  • DBT — Dialectical Behavior Therapy

  • ACT — Acceptance and Commitment Therapy

  • MBCT — Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy

  • Person-Centered and Existential Therapy

  • Somatic Body Awareness and Movement
