Getting to know Dr. Justin Jones

Dr. Justin Jones is a licensed clinical and forensic psychologist specializing in personality disorders, complex trauma, and chronic relational disturbance. He received his Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology from Columbia University, holds a Master’s in Religious Studies from Yale University, and serves as Adjunct Assistant Professor of Clinical Psychology at Teachers College, Columbia University. In his private practice in Greenwich Village, Dr. Jones works with adults dealing with emotional dysregulation, chronic relationship instability, complex PTSD, and entrenched self-defeating patterns. His approach integrates contemporary psychodynamic psychotherapy with specialized, evidence-based treatments for personality pathology, including Transference-Focused Psychotherapy (TFP), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Mentalization-Based Treatment (MBT). Dr. Jones is the Founder and Clinical Director of The Kimberly Center NYC, a specialized clinic and Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) dedicated to structured treatment for personality disorders and trauma recovery. His previous clinical appointments include Columbia University Medical Center, NYU/Bellevue Hospital, and Mount Sinai St. Luke’s. Additionally, Dr. Jones conducts independent forensic psychological evaluations and expert testimony in civil, family, and criminal matters.

What should a new client know about working with you?

My style is direct, collaborative, and compassionate. I understand that meaningful, structural psychological change requires both clinician and patient to confront hard-to-hear truths about entrenched patterns. My role is to help patients navigate these challenges in an environment that is demanding yet deeply supportive, grounded, and respectful.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

We begin with an initial comprehensive consultation (60 minutes) to thoroughly understand your presenting concerns, personal history, and relational patterns, and to determine how I might be of help. During this consultation, you will gain an understanding of what working together entails and how our therapeutic approach aligns with your goals. At the conclusion of this meeting, we formulate a tailored treatment plan suited to your specific psychological needs. Please note: I do not participate directly in insurance networks (out-of-network). Session fees are paid out-of-pocket at the time of service, and our office provides detailed monthly statements (superbills) that you can submit to your PPO insurance provider for potential out-of-network reimbursement. Furthermore, if you require a sliding scale, I can refer you to the excellent supervised therapists in my clinic, The Kimberly Center NYC, who can adjust fees based on financial need.

In-network insurances

Out-of-pocket fees and assistance
Initial session: $750 for 60 minutes
Ongoing session: $500 for 50 minutes
  • Sliding scale: Offers lower out-of-pocket fees on an individual basis, typically based on your ability to pay

More information on payments and coverage

I do not take insurance directly; if you have a PPO insurance plan, you can be reimbursed (typically at a rate of 70%).
