“Amalea is a wonderful listener, keeps it real, is patient and truly makes an effort to understand where you're coming from. I like her approach - it's more real-talk and friendly versus "doctor-like." She was patient with me even though I kept her waiting for 10 mins (as I was running late from another meeting!). I would see her regularly, but I am paying out of pocket right now, so I have to be selective as to when I see her. I will definitely make a follow-up appointment for the near future. Thanks so much! ”

Getting to know Dr. Amalea Seelig
Good mental health is an everyday need. I help people see how their thoughts and actions can get in the way of feeling their best.
Patients come for support with anxiety, addictive behavior, depression, difficult life events, and for a deeper understanding of how to live well. I work from an integrated approach that includes cognitive behavioral and brief therapy, with a focus on mindfulness.
I earned my PsyD from William James College and completed a fellowship at Harvard University, along with an internship at The Cambridge Hospital. I also hold a master's degree from Boston University.
As a therapist, I am open, honest, challenging, and non-judgmental. Working together, you will learn meaningful, practical skills and expand your natural capacities to thrive.
What should a new client know about working with you?
This practice does not offer out-of-network coverage for Medicaid, Medicare and insurances through the NYS Marketplace. This will mean you cannot be reimbursed for our fees.

Highly recommend Dr Seelig. She doesn’t take my insurance but she is absolutely worth going out of network for her expertise, clear communication style and a straight forward approach.

Dr Seelig is the best! I’ve worked with her for a little over two years now and have made great strides with my mental health. I highly recommend her?. she is very caring and kind and knows not to take it personal when you’re having a bad bout with your mental illness. ??

Amalea challenges me more than any therapist I've ever had and I leave every session feeling empowered to work on what we've addressed. Her energy is contagious, and motivates me to be a better version of myself, the one she sees in me that I don't always see in myself. I genuinely look forward to each session with her to continue our work together.

Finding a therapist you connect with can be really tough, so I consider myself extremely lucky to have found Dr. Seelig. Her guidance has been a tremendous source of support on and off for the past 2-years. She’s helped me learn, discover and grow through extremely tough times. Her non-clinical approach is refreshing and it’s always a pleasure seeing her!

I needed to see someone who was empathetic but at the same time to the point and real. Dr Seelig is really and truly amazing. Her sessions are worth every penny and more. I cannot recommend her enough!

Dr. Seelig is phenomenal! She is relatable, welcoming and insightful. The feedback she provides is invaluable. I have benefited more from sessions with her in a short time than I ever had with any other therapist over a long period of time.

This is my fourth time in therapy and the first time I’ve had a GOOD therapist. Dr. Seelig is more than good, she’s amazing. She is sincere and genuinely wants to help. I feel like I’m talking to a real person and don’t feel like a patient who’s just talking the whole time. Dr. Seelig is smart, open, engaged, professional, understanding and I 100% feel her support. Consider yourself lucky and in good hands if you work with her.

Dr. Seelig is amazing! Although I've seen multiple psychiatrists, psychologists and therapists (some for extended periods of time) she was able to help me see what was hindering my progress and point me towards a resolution. Thank you so much!

This visit was great! I feel so much better about so many things that were on my mind. Dr Amalea is soooo easy to talk to and I am already getting so much out of my sessions and I have only gone 3 times.

Dr. Seelig has been my therapist for well over 10 years and I honestly dont know what I would do without her in my life. She is extremely easy to talk to and has a unique way of understanding every little detail and making me see things from a different perspective. She is funny, intelligent, insightful and of course professional. I reccommend her to everyone I know.

I was extremely nervous about seeing a psychologist for the first time after enduring trauma, yet within the first minute, she was able to provide relief from that fear with kindness and genuine care. She is able to draw the best out of me, and patient to walk with me every step on the path towards recovery. I am truly grateful for her guidance, and hopeful for the future.

Rather than focusing too much on the cause of my issue or it's historical source, Dr. Seelig engaged me in a powerful discussion which helped me see my blindspots and helped me see what actions I could take. I felt comfortable, understood and empowered.
