Maria T. Alonso, Ph.D.
Psychologist
I help individuals with bipolar disorder navigate their unique challenges by providing a comprehensive approach to treatment. This involves a combination of evidence-based therapeutic techniques, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), tailored to help clients manage mood swings, develop coping strategies, and improve overall emotional regulation. I also focus on psychoeducation to enhance clients' understanding of their condition, fostering self-awareness and reducing stigma. Additionally, I work collaboratively with psychiatrists and other healthcare professionals to ensure a holistic treatment plan that may include medication management and lifestyle adjustments. My goal is to empower clients by equipping them with practical tools in a supportive therapeutic environment, helping them achieve greater stability and quality of life.

Who wants to feel better?
You, or else you wouldn't be looking at psychotherapists websites. But wait, there's more...maybe you're not sure you can feel better. Maybe you've never been to a psychotherapist before & this is all new to you or was something that "other people" did.

Amy Merbaum Althoff
Licensed Psychoanalyst, MA in Psychoanalysis
I'm a generalist mental health practitioner—which means I'm trained in multiple therapeutic approaches and work across a wide range of psychological and emotional issues rather than specializing in just one. I offer both short- and long-term therapy for people facing challenges like relationships, work stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, serious illness, and major life transitions. This flexibility allows me to meet you where you are, assess what's actually going on, and adapt my approach to what will serve you best. My practice is built to be inclusive and welcoming for people from all backgrounds and circumstances.

Nancy Burns
Counselor/Therapist, JD, LMHC, LPC, MA, EMDR Certified
Have you have experienced repeated bouts of depression, possibly since you were an adolescent you even earlier in your life? Perhaps you have worked with other therapists and counselors and might have tried different anti-depressant medications, which seem to work for awhile, but then all of a sudden they stop working and your depression has returned. Besides the sadness and hopelessness that accompanies the depressed mood, you might experience periods of irritability. Your family and friends might have told you that they feel as if they have to walk on eggshells when you are around. You might often have uncomfortable emotional reactions that out of character and you feel are uncontrollable. The expression of these strong emotions, and the behaviors that accompany them, have interfered with your professional and personal relationships. You also often might have had distressing thoughts which move too fast and which you can’t get to slow down. You sometimes might feel as if you want to jump out of your skin or that you have a tornado raging in your chest. All of this might have you feeling hopeless, as if you won’t ever have control of your life. As we work together, we will explore the patterns of your mood states and the accompanying emotions and behaviors that you have experienced. We will identify your repetitive negative thoughts and challenge their truthfulness while practicing new coping skills so that you can gain more control of your emotions. We might discuss the possibility of a referral to a medical provider for a trial of different medications, if it seems as if that might be helpful. We will strive towards helping you gain control over your mood and emotions, instead of your mood and emotions controlling you.

Manhattan is one of the most therapist-dense places in the world, with independent practices concentrated on the Upper West Side, in Chelsea, Midtown, and the East Village, serving an extraordinarily high per-capita demand for mental health care. The borough's concentration of finance, media, law, and healthcare professionals generates consistent demand for therapists experienced with high-stakes careers, perfectionism, and the emotional costs of extreme professional ambition. Manhattan also serves as the entry point for many immigrants from Latin America, Southeast Asia, and West Africa, and multilingual therapists make up a significant portion of the local clinical community. Columbia University Irving Medical Center, NYU Langone, and numerous academic training clinics provide institutional anchors and training pipelines for the borough's large private practice ecosystem.
