Marina Rozenberg, MD
Therapist, MD
With my background in internal medicine, I have over 15 years of experience in taking care of patients with chronic illness. Living with a chronic illness can bring feelings of grief due to loss of health, fear for the future, anger about circumstances, as well as difficulties in coming to terms with needing help and support from others when the ability to take care of oneself has diminished. In addition, it may trigger feelings related to unresolved childhood situations in which developmental and survival needs were not sufficiently met. Processing the various emotional reactions to illness is a critical step toward mourning what has been lost and opens the door to making peace with life that includes chronic illness.

Michael Berry
Psychologist, PhD
My work with chronic pain focuses on the complex interaction between the mind, body, and nervous system. I use evidence-based cognitive behavioral and biopsychosocial approaches to help patients better understand the factors that can influence pain—including stress, emotions, sleep, activity, and patterns of attention and avoidance—while developing practical strategies to improve functioning and quality of life. Treatment is collaborative and individualized, with an emphasis on helping patients build a more effective relationship with pain and reconnect with the activities and values that matter most.

Lauren Bradley
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
A chronic illness or cancer diagnosis can shift so much—your routines, your relationships, and how you see yourself. It’s common to feel fear, grief, anger, or a loss of control. In our work together, we’ll create a space where you can process these emotions openly, while also building tools to help you navigate the uncertainty and stress that often come with medical challenges. My goal is to help you feel supported, understood, and more grounded as you move through this experience.

Jennifer Cain
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I worked for several years with people who experienced a work accident or motor vehicle accident who struggled with chronic pain. People were surprised to find out that a combination of psychological and behavior strategies, when practiced consistently over time, could lower their pain levels. I teach you ways to lower pain levels such as through learning to relax your mind and body, focusing on other things for periods of time, learning different ways of doing things, and pacing yourself through tasks. I also help people manage the other problems that come with chronic pain or illness, like sleep problems, changes in the way you see yourself, fears and anxiety, depression, and issues that can arise in your relationships.

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.

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.

Staten Island's suburban character and strong Italian-American and Eastern European heritage shape a therapy culture that has historically carried some skepticism about mental health treatment, even as demand has grown substantially. The borough was among the hardest hit in New York City by the opioid epidemic, and therapists specializing in addiction recovery, grief, and trauma from loss remain a central part of the community's mental health infrastructure. Staten Island University Hospital provides institutional mental health resources, while private practices are concentrated in Stapleton, Todt Hill, and the North Shore. Many residents also access therapy in New Jersey or Manhattan, reflecting the borough's geographic position at the outer edge of the city.
