Who We Are |
NYC CBTp is the first ever private practice group dedicated to providing evidence based cognitive behavioral therapy for people with psychosis in New York City. Such therapy has been freely available in Europe for a long time and the clinic's founder, Dr Sally E. Riggs, DClinPsy, ACT, has worked hard to bring it to the US.
|
At NYC CBTp we take a normalising approach to understanding psychosis. We believe experiences and beliefs commonly regarded as symptoms of psychosis are often highly understandable reactions to adverse life events. We avoid using labels, unhelpful diagnosis or judgment. Our primary aim is to help you overcome your distress and achieve your goals, as well as develop ways of restoring autonomy and dignity, without shame or stigma. We work from a person centered, recovery oriented perspective, which means we do not believe that you are sick, wrong, or bad. We provide a supportive and accepting therapeutic environment for all, regardless of ethnicity, religion, spiritual beliefs, sexual orientation or gender.
