Our Approach
At NYCBT we believe that the key to successful therapy is finding a therapist that you really connect with and working together to help you reach your goals. We want to get to know you - not just your struggles but your strengths, your interests, the things you enjoy, and the things you are passionate about. By understanding you better we will be able to help you build the life you want, as this will allow us to address the problems you're facing as well as capitalize on your strengths.
Within this framework, we utilize the most up-to-date, scientifically studied and proven types of therapy, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). Our approach is to focus our efforts on the things that are maintaining the difficulties you are having, including patterns in your thinking and behavior that impact you emotionally and affect how you respond to the challenges in your life. This allows us to discuss the issues you are currently experiencing and target them immediately in our treatment together. This type of approach is different from what you may experience in other types of therapy, where there is often a greater emphasis on understanding how these problems developed and where they came from. Although we certainly address these questions too, at NYCBT we believe in a more practical approach to help you overcome the challenges you are facing and build a more fulfilling, meaningful, and satisfying life. Your therapist will work together with you to come up with a focused, personalized plan for your treatment based on your specific goals. Depending on the issues you are looking for help with, your therapist will help you learn and use specific, proven strategies in sessions as well as in your everyday life in order to reach your goals.

Scheduling An Appointment
To request an appointment for a consultation, call us at 646.653.0933 and please leave a brief message about what you are looking for, if you would like to meet with a specific therapist, and how best to contact you. You can also reach us through our contact form.
Sessions and Fees
We offer a range of fees for individual therapy, depending on which therapist you work with. We also have a limited number of reduced-fee options available. Please contact us to inquire about the fees for specific therapists or to discuss reduced-fee options.
The initial consultation appointment is typically scheduled for between 60 and 75 minutes. Subsequent therapy sessions are scheduled for 45 minutes. In some situations longer therapy sessions are scheduled; the therapist’s standard fee is then prorated accordingly.
Our DBT skills training groups meet for 90 minutes. The group fee is $125.
Using Your Health Insurance Benefits
We do not participate with any health insurance plans, nor do we bill the insurance companies directly.
We can provide you with monthly statements that have all of the information necessary for you to submit them to your insurance carrier to receive any reimbursement you are entitled to. You may wish to contact your health insurance company to ask them about your out-of-network behavioral health benefits, including your deductible, reimbursement rate, and any limitations.
We would be happy to discuss this further - please feel free to contact us.
