Scott Sasso
Psychologist -
Psychotherapy can be used to assist people who are feeling stuck or unfulfilled as well as help those struggling with stressful life transitions; experiences often accompanied by depression and anxiety. Through my straightforward and active approach, I help my clients enhance their self-awareness and develop important skill sets to navigate difficult circumstances. I also believe it essential to learn about the impact of one’s past on current relationships. I highly value the connection I have with my clients and I make every effort to foster a therapeutic environment that feels natural and authentic.I provide individual, couples, and group therapy. My approach to couples therapy primarily focuses on increasing direct emotional communication between partners. In group therapy, patients provide support as well as challenging feedback for each other, which allows for substantial personal growth. I am board certified in group psychotherapy.My work is influenced primarily by psychodynamic and cognitive behavioral theories. Additionally, my extensive work with socioeconomically and racially diverse populations throughout New York City as well as with military veterans has afforded me a wide array of training and educational opportunities that inform my approach.
