Getting to know John Powell
Do you notice a struggle within yourself to be the person others want you to be, or the person you want to be, but feel it’s impossible? I often work with adolescents, young adults, and couples facing perfectionism, school and job stress, and feeling overwhelmed by responsibilities at work and home, including burnout. I also support those experiencing a loss of meaning and motivation—when it feels like you’re alive but not truly living, perhaps accompanied by grief. These are two sides of the same coin, often resulting in a painful burden: feeling stuck.
My approach assumes that the psychological processes of a normal human mind—thoughts and feelings—can be destructive, creating suffering through inflexible patterns. Essentially, our internal systems sometimes become outdated. Rather than focusing on problems, I focus on values. I don’t aim to reduce symptoms; I help you create meaning.
Using Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Family Systems, we’ll identify where you’re stuck and how to move forward. For those who have “tried everything,” including other therapies, I’m here to help you get unstuck. This work has also benefited my own journey, and I’d like to share what I’ve learned with you.
I hold a Master’s degree in Counseling from the University of Vermont and a Bachelor’s degree from Sarah Lawrence College. New clients should expect to connect with me by phone before their first session and to complete some intake forms.
What should a new client know about working with you?
I view our work as collaborative. We are working together on helping you make important changes in your life. Most of the time, when we're struggling we need to build skills such as, self-compassion, boundaries, make decisions, or staying focused. We will work on building those skills together.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
My work is collaborative. Therapy isn't something done to you, it's something done with you.

Don’t see your insurance?
It’s common for mental health providers to be out-of-network. Many insurance plans offer out-of-network coverage, so you may get partially reimbursed. Learn more
Out-of-pocket fees and assistance
Initial session: $130 for 55 minutes
Ongoing session: $130 for 55 minutes
- Sliding scale: Offers lower out-of-pocket fees on an individual basis, typically based on your ability to pay
- Files your insurance claim: You pay the session fee upfront and the provider files the claim for you, so you can get reimbursed directly without worrying about the paperwork
- Charges post-reimbursement amount: This provider will only charge you for the amount you pay after you get reimbursed from your insurance plan, so you don’t need to pay the session fee upfront
More information on payments and coverage
I use Headway to process insurance payments. You'll learn more about this when we start working together.
