Mr Jeremy Ortman

Psychotherapist

“Experienced and compassionate therapist with over a decade of experience supporting stressed out New Yorkers of all kinds.”

About Me

I compassionately guide stressed New Yorkers through life's pressures, drawing on over a decade of experience. My aim is to create a grounded space where you can explore anxieties and develop practical strategies for daily calm. I help clients navigate overwhelm, finding lasting peace. This makes me a good match for anyone feeling the weight of city life and seeking genuine support.

Approach

You’ll notice sessions move at a steady, practical pace—balancing urgent concerns with breath and clarity so choices feel less overwhelming. In New York I track patterns, bring mindful body awareness together with targeted memory processing, and set small, doable practices to carry between meetings. We work collaboratively: you name what matters, we try tools, and recalibrate based on what actually shifts in your day-to-day. People juggling anxiety, relationships, chronic health or addiction often find this focused, down-to-earth rhythm helpful.
