Getting to know Jalai Duroseau
My name is Jalai Duroseau (Jah-lay Dora-so), MHC-LP. I am a professional school counselor and mental health counselor. I hold a Master's in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Capella University and an Advanced Certificate in Mental Health Counseling from the University at Buffalo (North Campus). At Extending Roots, I use a person-centered approach with modalities like CBT, DBT, and ERP. We will build practical skills while increasing your knowledge of the areas you have concerns about. Resiliency is a key indicator for success, whether you're feeling depressed, anxious, or otherwise; my goal is to help you achieve better understanding and success around your struggles. I have copious experience with clients dealing with life transitions, OCD/OCPD, anxiety, depression, and even unconventional areas like financial and business challenges. I aim to equip you with the tools needed to feel successful. As we work together, I am committed to improving and developing my professional skills to serve you as a clinician.
What should a new client know about working with you?
Starting therapy can feel like a big step, and I strive to make the process supportive and comfortable. Therapy is a partnership I encourage open communication so we can adjust our work to best support you. My goal is for you to feel heard, and confident in your journey toward well-being. We will find practical solutions to your real concerns.
I look forward to working with you!
What is your typical process for working with clients?
Our work together begins with an initial session where I take the time to understand your concerns, goals, and background. This helps us create a foundation for your therapy journey. From there, we will collaborate on a personalized approach using evidence-based techniques like CBT, DBT, and person-centered therapy.
We will become more familiar with each other and learn your history, current situation and outline tangible goals and needs.

I was a previous patient of Jalai, he's a great therapist and a wonderful person to talk to. He was very down to earth and gave me lots of insightful recommendations, and honestly felt like I was talking to an older mentor/family member instead of a stranger.

Jalai is incredibly kind, understanding, and easy to talk to, he made me feel heard and supported right away. I truly felt comfortable opening up, and I always leave our sessions feeling lighter and more clear-headed

Visit was very comforting, Jalai made the initial setup every stress free and allowed me to ease into therapy. I am always please with the service and how appointments go.
There’s accountability with care and support. Also I did not know therapy can be very practical as well as profound.

Today’s therapy session was one of the most impactful I’ve had. I felt completely seen and understood, which made it easier to explore emotions I’ve been avoiding for a long time. My therapist asked thoughtful questions that helped me gain clarity and shift my perspective on some deeply rooted issues. We also developed practical strategies I can start applying right away, which gave me a renewed sense of hope and control. I left the session feeling lighter, more empowered, and genuinely optimistic about my personal growth journey.

Jalai is always compassionate, understanding, nonjudgmental, patient, and willing to listen and provide guidance. I highly recommend his services

Working with Jalai has truly been one of the best decisions I’ve made for my mental and emotional well-being. From the very first session, they created a space that felt safe, judgment-free, and deeply compassionate. They listen with genuine care and offer insight that is both gentle and incredibly impactful.
He helped me understand patterns I didn’t even realize I had and gave me practical tools to manage anxiety, set boundaries, and build healthier relationships. What I appreciate most is how Jalai balances professionalism with a warm, down-to-earth approach that makes each session feel personal and productive.
I’ve grown so much in such a short amount of time, and I’m incredibly grateful for the clarity and confidence I’ve gained through our work together. If you’re looking for a therapist who is empathetic, knowledgeable, and truly invested in your growth, I can’t recommend Jalai enough.

Mr. Duroseau was professional , welcoming , and very attentive to detail. He was patient with me as I tried my hardest to elaborate on thoughts but also was abled to translate the things I was saying clearly and efficiently. He gave me a ton of clarity during our encounter. I really appreciate the fact that he also allowed me the space to navigate through my emotions as I was having a moment during our session. He was very supportive and gave me reassurance when it came to my emotions. I would definitely recommend him to anyone!
