Cognitive Behavioral Associates
About our expert therapists in Great Neck, NY
Building a gold-standard practice
Twenty years ago, we began planning a psychology practice based on our shared vision of creating a gold-standard treatment center—one that delivers lasting results through expert, compassionate care. This meant recruiting therapists who are not only highly skilled but also passionate about helping clients thrive.
Our decision to form a group practice was driven by the desire to offer a comprehensive, collaborative approach to therapy, including evidence-based treatments such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and Independence Therapy. We continuously share best practices and resources, fostering a supportive community of therapists.
We have carefully balanced our practice size to ensure we can provide a diverse range of therapists with various areas of expertise, while still maintaining a warm, personalized approach that caters to each client’s unique needs.
Today, we’re proud to expand our commitment to excellence by offering a full-time psychology internship, training the next generation of therapists in CBT and DBT. We appreciate the many clients & families who have trusted us with their care. We hope that you will, too. Contact us today to schedule a consultation and start your journey toward well-being.
