Dr. Annette Borenstein

I am a clinical psychologist with decades of experience across telehealth, hospitals, and schools, providing both short- and long-term psychotherapy. I specialize in treating people who are experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, and personality disorders. My approach is integrative, combining psychodynamic and evidenced-based approaches. I draw upon mindfulness, CBT and DBT, while at the same time, employing self and relational psychology.

Working with me, clients can expect a strong personal connection and they can expect to be challenged. Through reflection and a touch of humor, rather than merely addressing symptoms, I work to open the door to greater self-development and awareness and the creation of more lasting client change.

I believe that the key to a good therapeutic relationship is empathic communication and thoughtful listening to both what is said and unsaid. I see the therapeutic relationship as one in which the client’s experiences, strengths, identity, and inherent dignity can be honored and courage in the face of life’s uncertainty can be cultivated.
