Therapist NYC, licensed therapists across the five boroughs

Profiles claimed by the therapist appear first. They show a "License verified" badge, the specialties and approaches the clinician entered, insurance, fees and whether they meet in person, online or both, and you can send an inquiry from the profile. Below them, under "More licensed providers in New York City", you see registry listings from the federal NPPES NPI Registry with name, credential, practice address and practice phone. Those details have not been confirmed by the provider yet, so call to ask about openings, insurance and fees.

Many New Yorkers pick a therapist near work rather than home, because a session at lunch or right after the workday fits better than a trip across the river on a weekend. Midtown, the Financial District and Union Square have many practices in walking distance of major subway lines. Others prefer a quiet office close to home on the Upper West Side, in Astoria, in Riverdale or on the North Shore of Staten Island. Brooklyn has its own guide at Brooklyn therapist.

Online sessions remove the commute completely. One New York detail matters here: a therapist generally must be licensed in the state where you are located during the session. If you live in New Jersey or Connecticut and only work in the city, a video session from home may require a license in your home state, so say where you will be when you book.

Self-pay rates in the United States often fall somewhere between about 100 and 250 USD per session, and they vary widely by city, credential and session length. Some city therapists are in network with commercial plans, some accept New York Medicaid, often through a Medicaid managed care plan, and some are out of network and provide a statement you can submit to your insurer. Read therapist that takes insurance and therapist near me that takes Medicaid before you call.
