Westside Psych, a deep-dive psychotherapy clinic, has opened on the Upper West Side, offering a research-based approach and comprehensive treatment to address the growing mental health crisis among adolescents.
In response to an alarming rise in depression, anxiety and suicidal tendencies among teens, Westside Psych aims to fill a major gap in mental health services. Our team of highly trained therapists from top institutions are committed to providing face-to-face treatment and regularly partnering with parents to ensure comprehensive care.
“Today’s teens are facing unprecedented challenges that impact their mental health, from increased smartphone use and exposure to social media to the lingering effects of the COVID-19 pandemic,” said Westside Psych’s Dr. Joseph Giardino. “Our clinic is committed to addressing these issues and helping young people navigate their mental health journey.”
Westside Psych specializes in treating a variety of adolescent issues, including:
- Anxiety, depression and social issues
- Academic problems
- Self-esteem issues
