Psychological Testing and Evaluation Therapists in New York, NY

PAC Psych is a small group private practice conveniently located on the upper west side of Manhattan run by Dr. Hayley Cooper. The mission of Parent and Child Psychological Services is to bring well researched and empirically supported therapies to children, adolescents and their families with a particular focus on anxiety, attachment and young children experiencing behavior difficulties both at home and in school. We believe that a collaborative relationship with parents and sometimes schools is often the best way to achieve successful results.

Experiencing trouble with sleep/suffering from insomnia can be a painful & exhausting experience. I am a Yale-trained, clinical health psychologist, specializing in all-natural, evidence based insomnia treatment. After receiving a comprehensive sleep assessment, you & I will work together to create a tailored sleep therapy plan based on your unique physiological make up, sleep patterns, daily requirements, contextual & environmental factors. Treatment might include any combination of the following recommendations- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-i); Auricular Acupressure Beads; and/or Mindfulness/Relaxation Training.

I am a learning specialist in private practice with 30 years of experience. I offer individualized instruction to children and adults with learning difficulties, as well as customized enrichment to gifted children. I analyze, assess, and identify individual needs, and develop a cohesive Education Action Plan to put into action. My comprehensive and integrative approach bridges the disciplines of neuroscience and education. It is designed to optimize each student's individual strengths and address specific goals in a timely and dynamic way. I integrate information about specific workplace or educational settings with an appreciation for the individual client's learning style.

Despite our best efforts to change, obstacles can be terribly difficult to overcome in isolation; I am dedicated to creating a safe space in which we can explore the thoughts, feelings, behaviors, and relational patterns that may be causing you to feel stuck. I work with young adults on the various challenges that arise when transitioning into adulthood, including creating healthy romantic/peer relationships, early career development, and challenging family dynamics. I have experience supporting individuals in exploring their gender, sexual, and romantic identity development, and welcome members of the LGBTQQIA+ community.

As a psychologist and art therapist, I enjoy working with children, adolescents, and adults. I offer insight-oriented talk therapy, play therapy, art therapy, and psychodiagnostic testing. I also integrate cognitive, behavioral, creative-expressive, and dialectical interventions, when appropriate. I work primarily with clients who are struggling with anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, periods of transition/adjustment, and relationship difficulties, as well as with children with a range of difficulties including mood and behavioral problems, and academic challenges.

The path to healing can be arduous and difficult for many and may seem impossible and unattainable for others. I have been fortunate and honored to work with hundreds of individuals, couples, and families on their journey of healing. I am committed to helping every person that comes to therapy to be their support at every step of their journey. Together we create goals, learn skills, and move through blocks that will help you grow from your struggles, heal from your pain, and move forward to where you want to be in your life.

I believe that mental health is the ability to respond to setbacks and disappointments - that is, life events - with flexibility and resilience. Unfortunately, childhood misattunements with caregivers, traumas, and neglect shape responses that become fixed patterns throughout life. With therapeutic intervention, positive attachment relationships can be forged, and old memories can lead to new insights, which can inspire more adaptive reactions.

Anxious, panicked, scared, overwhelmed? No two clients are exactly the same. Which is why each of my clients receives their own therapeutic plan tailored to their needs. We are all doing the best we are able to at each moment and with effort, support and acceptance, we become the best version of ourselves. During sessions I may challenge you to go deeper. I believe that the therapeutic relationship between my client and myself is the most important part of our work. I hold a supportive, compassionate space for my clients even as I challenge them to let go of negative beliefs.

Is it time for a change? Are you looking for new strategies, skills, and solutions to cope with longstanding issues? My name is Dr. Josh Korth, and I am here to assist you on this journey. Although I specialize in diagnosing and treating children and adolescents with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), I have also received extensive training in evidence-based treatments for ASD, ADHD, depression, and anxiety. I truly enjoy my work and seeing positive change with children, adolescents, and their families. I also have seen significant progress with motivated adult clients that were looking to make changes to their lives as well!

I am a Columbia-trained clinical psychologist with expertise in neuropsychological screening and psychoeducational testing/evaluations for children and college-age adults to assess performance in educational, developmental, and emotional functioning. Many parents are looking for answers—they have seen their child struggle with learning or emotional issues and want to know a clear path forward. My comprehensive evaluation will identify specific reasons why your child is struggling, provide tailored recommendations, identify appropriate accommodations, address school and college placement issues, and illuminate targets for treatment.

With 25 years experience, I offer two main services. First, cognitive-behavioral psychotherapy with teens/adults who experience mood, relationship, and eating disordered issues. Whatever brings you in, we focus on self-understanding and making small yet effective changes that let you be heard, connect, and thrive. Second, neuropsychological evaluations let us pinpoint learning or attentional issues that compromise performance, achievement, and self-esteem. My dual focus allows for a broader understanding of what prevents one from reaching their true potential, which then guides comprehensive recommendations.

As a clinical neuropsychologist, it is my goal to understand the relationship between the brain and cognitive/behavioral functioning. I work with patients with a variety of neurological and neurodevelopmental disorders to help with diagnostic clarification based on the findings of a comprehensive evaluation. The evaluation incorporates information gathered from a clinical interview with the patient (and at times an accompanying family member), responses on emotional/behavioral questionnaires, and performance on standardized cognitive measures.

I work with neurodivergent adults to navigate life transitions and manage anxiety, stress, and depression. As a neurodiversity-affirming therapist, I do not believe these conditions should be “cured.” Instead I treat the stresses that accompany living in an often invalidating or non-accommodating world.

My approach to doing therapy is different for each person I see, so it's hard to describe what being in therapy with me is like. My training and background is broadly psychoanalytic, but I am pretty sure I am more interactive than most other therapists with my training and orientation. I am supportive, direct in my way of talking about problems, and have a good sense of humor.

My practice has a dual specialty neuropsychology and psychotherapy. I see children, adolescents, and adults. In Neuropsychology, I see individuals who have experienced a learning difficulty or frustration in an academic environment. I specifically look to identify patterns of learning and adapting novel information to help individuals achieve the most out of their academic career. On the psychotherapy side, I use both psychodynamic and interpersonal modalities incorporating cognitive behavioral therapy to identify negative patterns of coping. Utilizing gentle challenges to current patterns, positive coping can be effected.

My services focus on working with managing transitions and life traumas. Normal ability to cope with certain events may not be enough. You might experience immediate symptoms which take the form of shock and denial, while longer term disturbances can take the form of irregular moods, intense guilt, depression, anxiety, flashbacks and difficulty with interpersonal relationships. While having feelings about a traumatic event are normal, some people become "stuck" and have difficulty working through their emotions.

Dr. Krone has highly specialized skills in diagnostic, cognitive, psycho-educational, and neuropsychological assessment. She is a skilled provider of evidence based and empirically supported therapies for children, adolescents, and adults who are adjusting to new diagnoses and chronic physical or mental health issues. For more than a decade, her work has focused on disorders in context of ADHD. She has helped hundreds of families learn to understand their 'new normal' in the face of life-changing diagnoses, manage their present situations, and develop skills to shape a better future and live to their fullest potential.

I am a board certified clinical neuropsychologist. My specialty is clinical & forensic neuropsychological evaluation across the lifespan. Assessment involves an in-depth understanding of the effects of neurological and neurodevelopmental conditions on brain functioning. The goal is to see you, not the disorder, & to understand how the condition affects you, determine intervention & treatment needs, & enhance your quality of life. Please note, this is an assessment service. I am not providing therapy though I will make appropriate & targeted recommendations based on the findings so that targeted treatment occurs.
