Rachel Reich, PhD
As founder and director of The Center for DBT and Trauma Recovery, I am a licensed clinical psychologist providing individual and couples therapy to individuals across the lifespan. While my treatment approach is integrative, I have specialized training in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), as well as gold standard treatments for trauma including Internal Family Systems (IFS) and Prolonged Exposure (PE). I received my doctorate in Clinical Psychology from Ferkauf Graduate School of Psychology. My training includes experiences at Zucker Hillside Hospital centers of specialization, OMH psychiatric centers, and university counseling. I completed a post-doctoral fellowship as well as served as staff psychologist at a large DBT private practice providing full-fidelity DBT to adolescents and adults. In addition to private practice, I am currently affiliated with Northwell Health where I provide consultation and conduct DBT trainings on the Behavioral Health College Partnership (BHCP) inpatient unit.
