About Dr. Saltzman

I am a NY and NJ-licensed psychologist with over two decades of experience helping people put themselves in the driver’s seat of their lives and pursue greater fulfillment. 

I completed a Psy.D. in Professional Child/School Psychology from New York University and trained at top clinical facilities including Columbia University Medical Center/NY Presbyterian Hospital and Kings County Hospital. I have also worked as a school psychologist in public and independent schools in New York City. I have been in private practice in Manhattan since 2009. 

Originally trained as a child and adolescent psychologist, my understanding of early life experiences, child development, and attachment informs my current work with adults. I help people draw connections between their past, present, and future selves, as well as develop tools to move toward new choices. We work at the level of feelings, thoughts and behavior to build emotion regulation, find new ways of thinking, and loosen stuck behavior patterns. I believe lasting change goes beyond symptom relief to achieve greater insight and better coping strategies. 

As a NYC psychologist, I know my clients are busy and recognize that it can be challenging to fit therapy into your schedule. With this in mind, my practice is centrally located in the Murray Hill neighborhood of Midtown Manhattan, close to Grand Central Station, and is easily accessible by public transportation. I invite you to contact me for a free 15 min. phone consultation to get started.
