Steven Alter
I have 30 years of practicing psychotherapy and conducting neuropsychological evaluations in New York City. I am a faculty member at the Derner Institute of Psychology where I teach psychological diagnosis and evaluation. My practice areas include specialization with adolescents, young adults and couples. My initial training was in psychodynamic psychotherapy, but have received extensive training in cognitive-behavioral, behavioral and ACT approaches. I practice flexibly and tailor my treatment approach to the particular needs of my client. I have a post-doctoral certificate in Neuropsychology and specialize in evaluation of children with neurodevelopmental and educational challenges. I regularly testify at educational hearings.
