Our Approach to Therapy

At Looking Glass Psychology, our licensed psychologists and clinicians use evidence-based therapy approaches tailored to each person’s needs and goals. Depending on what you’re working on, your treatment plan may draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), psychodynamic therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), mindfulness-based approaches, and other proven modalities.

We don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all model — therapy works best when the approach fits the person. As an out-of-network practice, we provide superbills to support clients using their out-of-network insurance benefits, and we’re transparent about session fees so you can make an informed decision about your care.

Therapy and Consulting FAQs

Do you offer in-person and online therapy in NYC?

Yes. Looking Glass Psychology offers both in-person therapy at our office in Midtown Manhattan (18 East 41st Street, just steps from Grand Central Station) and secure online therapy sessions for clients across New York State.

Online therapy gives you the same quality of care as in-person sessions, with the flexibility to meet from home, work, or wherever you feel most comfortable.

Many clients also choose a hybrid approach, alternating between in-person and virtual sessions depending on their schedule.

How do I choose the right therapist?

Choosing the right therapist often comes down to fit — your therapist’s specialty, approach, and personality should all feel right for you. We make the matching process simple in three ways: you can browse our therapist directory to learn about each clinician’s background and specialties, schedule a free 10-minute consultation to see how a particular therapist feels in conversation, or fill out our matching form and let our intake coordinator recommend a therapist based on your needs and goals. There’s no pressure to commit until you’ve found someone who feels like the right fit.

Do you accept insurance?

Looking Glass Psychology is an out-of-network provider, which means we don’t bill insurance directly. However, many clients use their out-of-network benefits to receive partial reimbursement for therapy.

We provide a monthly superbill — a detailed receipt you can submit to your insurance company — to help you access whatever coverage your plan offers. We recommend calling the number on the back of your insurance card and asking about your out-of-network mental health benefits, including your deductible, reimbursement rate, and any session limits.

Our intake team is also happy to help you understand the process.

How much does therapy cost?

Session fees at Looking Glass vary by therapist, with rates typically reflecting each clinician’s level of experience, credentials, and specialty. We’re committed to transparency about cost — current session rates are shared during your free 10-minute consultation or when you reach out to our intake team.

If you have out-of-network insurance benefits, your actual out-of-pocket cost may be significantly lower after reimbursement. To get specific pricing information for a therapist you’re interested in, call or text us at (646) 760-3399 or schedule a free consult.

What should I expect at my first session?

Your first session is a conversation, not an evaluation. Your therapist will ask about what brought you in, what you’d like to work on, and a bit about your background — but the pace is entirely up to you. There’s no requirement to share more than you’re ready to.

Together, you’ll start to define goals for therapy and discuss the approach that feels right for your needs. Many clients leave their first session feeling lighter simply from being heard. If you’d like to get a sense of how a therapist works before scheduling a full session, we recommend starting with a free 10-minute consultation.
