About Me
Hello, I appreciate you creating time to be here. My name is Jean Messeroux (he/him) and I am a Licensed Psychotherapist and Wellness Coach serving the New York area. My professional path began in the classroom as a high school educator of over seven years and social worker of two years, during which I developed a passion for learning and building skills to support others’ mental health journeys and self-discoveries. My education path spans from Massachusetts to New York, by which I earned a Bachelor’s Degree in English and African-American Studies from the University of Massachusetts Amherst, and a Master of Science Degree in Social Work with an Advanced Clinical Practice Concentration from Columbia University. Beyond my work as a Psychotherapist, I am also a creative entrepreneur practicing photography, design, and creative direction. I explore art and creativity as tools for self-expression, healing, and connection, and encourage my clients to do the same.
Specialties
Some of my specialties include working with clients who are navigating depression, anxiety, identities, relationships, childhood & adolescence, racial trauma, workplace trauma, family trauma, various types of abuse, challenging life transitions, self-harm, and self-esteem.
Therapeutic approaches
My therapeutic approach is holistic, collaborative, intersectional, anti-oppressive, and culturally responsive. At the core of my work is the awareness that every person is uniquely multidimensional and multilayered. It is important that all of the layers and dimensions of everyone I serve are honored, and that my clients are consistently reminded and affirmed of their agency in their healing processes. As your therapist I’m just another person on your team who is here to support you in discovering and actualizing yourself.
