A few moments to introduce myself. Professionally I am known as I. Barry Bell, Ph.D. I am a 73-year-old, male, Caucasian Clinical Psychologist who has been in practice for 39 years. I have worked in a variety of settings, in both in-patient psychiatric hospitals and out-patient clinical settings. I have also maintained my own private practice from September 2016 to the present.

During these years I became deeply involved in emerging positive psychologies and Eastern/Buddhist/Taoist studies. This was the beginning of the interface between what is now referred to as Mindfulness based approaches to psychotherapy and Eastern philosophies, especially Buddhist. Mindfulness approaches to psychotherapy are now at the forefront of evidence-based interventions. I have spent more than the past 20 years studying and practicing the interface between psychotherapy and personal psychological growth. Over the years I have integrated various theoretical approaches, including depth psychodynamic theories. I will be happy to discuss my approach with you further should you choose to contact me to consider engaging in psychotherapeutic work with me.

You hold it together for everyone — at work, at home, in your relationships — but the weight of it is getting harder to carry. Maybe anxiety keeps your mind racing at 2 a.m., or you're stuck in patterns with substances or behaviors that started as coping but now feel like a trap. Maybe grief, trauma, or a painful chapter you thought you'd moved past keeps surfacing when you least expect it. I'm Rovin Chonielall, a Licensed Professional Counselor and Certified Addiction Specialist with 15 years of experience helping adults find their footing when life feels unmanageable. I work with people navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction and recovery, and the kind of emotional exhaustion that builds up when you've been running on autopilot for too long. My approach is direct, holistic, and grounded in what actually works. I draw on Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to help you build skills for managing intense emotions, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to challenge the thought patterns keeping you stuck, and Motivational Interviewing to help you connect with your own reasons for change — especially when motivation feels low. I also incorporate mindfulness and solution-focused techniques, because sustainable growth happens when you learn to be present with yourself, not just push through. What my clients tell me is that therapy with me feels different — honest without being harsh, structured without being rigid. I'm not going to just nod along. I'll meet you where you are, ask the questions that matter, and help you build a life that actually reflects who you want to be. If you're ready to stop going through the motions and start doing the real work, I'd like to help.

Therapy is about possibilities. It's a chance to better understand yourself, discover new ways of responding to life's challenges, and move toward the person you want to become. I see my role as walking alongside you, helping you explore those possibilities while supporting you through your own unique journey. With more than 21 years of experience, I've learned there is no one "right" way to do therapy because there is no one "right" kind of person. Rather than relying on rigid formulas, I tailor therapy to you. Together we'll build on your strengths, make sense of your experiences, and develop practical strategies that fit your life and your goals. I believe the therapeutic relationship is the foundation of meaningful change. When you feel understood, respected, and safe enough to be yourself, therapy becomes a place where growth can happen. My goal is to create that kind of environment: collaborative, genuine, and free of judgment. I work with adults facing anxiety, depression, stress, relationship challenges, life transitions, grief, trauma, and the many struggles that don't always fit neatly into a diagnosis. Sometimes people come to therapy simply because life feels harder than it used to or they feel stuck and aren't sure why. Whatever brings you here, we'll work together to understand what's happening, identify opportunities for change, and help you move toward a life that feels more meaningful and authentic.

Are you wrestling with feelings of depression or anxiety? Is your consumption of alcohol becoming a problem? As we work together in therapy, we can uncover the reasons for these emotions and behaviors. Sometimes these maladaptive coping mechanisms can stem from past trauma or deeper wounds.
