Getting to know Dr. Basha Silver

Welcome! I'm Dr. Basha Silver. Taking the step to start therapy can feel daunting, but I'm here to help. I am a New York State licensed clinical psychologist with a PsyD in Clinical Psychology from Yeshiva University. I also completed a fellowship in Clinical Psychology focused on Cognitive Therapy for Women. Additionally, I hold a Master’s in Clinical Psychology from the same institution and earned my Bachelor's degree from Colgate University. My therapeutic style is warm, down to earth, and interactive. I strive to be both goal directed and flexible in treatment, tailoring the therapy experience to your unique needs and personality. My areas of expertise include anxiety disorders (social anxiety, panic, OCD, GAD), depression, and trauma. I also specialize in women’s mental health, including perinatal and postpartum mood and anxiety disorders, infertility, pregnancy loss, and parenting concerns. Additionally, I enjoy working with individuals navigating challenges related to young adulthood, including dating concerns, the adjustment to college, and early career anxieties. I will work with you to create positive changes in your life by teaching you skills and increasing awareness of patterns of thought, behaviors, and beliefs that are blocking you from achieving your goals, interfering with relationships, or increasing emotional distress. Please note I am an OUT OF NETWORK provider. My fee is $275 per session. I will provide a weekly superbill for you to receive out of network reimbursement from your insurance company (30-90%). Other clinicians in my group practice, Silver Therapy Group, can accommodate sliding scale fees on a case by case basis.

What should a new client know about working with you?

My treatment approach is warm, focused and interactive. My expertise is grounded in evidence-based treatments, such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and I also incorporate aspects of other approaches, such as mindfulness techniques, attachment work, and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT).

What is your typical process for working with clients?

The initial intake appointment will last for 60 minutes. The initial intake appointment is an opportunity to discuss what is bringing you into therapy and to provide you with information about my treatment approach and therapeutic style. During this session we will also discuss relevant life history and identify goals for therapy. Ongoing weekly sessions will last 45 minutes and we will often agree upon "homework" between sessions, which helps you maximize your therapy experience and integrates the work we do together in sessions into your everyday life.

Dr. Silver is experienced and caring. She is effortlessly eloquent in her ability to balance of skills and insight. She helped me tremendously.
I saw Dr. Silver after my second kiddo and I can't tell you how helpful she was to me in a rough postpartum period. She is phenomenally wise, empathetic, calm, non-judgemental, and practical. She shares helpful frameworks and tactical tips that have stuck with me years after.
Dr. Silver is the best! She's patient, empathetic, thoughtful, and perceptive. She helped me gain a much better understanding of the situations that trigger my anxiety, and worked with me to develop strategies to manage that anxiety so it doesn't adversely affect my work or social life. She also helped me navigate some difficult relationship issues.
Dr. Silver saw me right away. Her manner and office immediately put me at ease. She listens carefully, and with her help I am quickly gaining control of my life. I can’t thank her enough.
