Getting to know Dr. Dani Greenfield
Hi there - my name is Dani, and I am a postdoctoral clinical psychologist at Bryant West Psychology. I offer psychotherapy to adults of all ages, both in-person and online.
I can help with a wide range of difficulties, including anxiety, depression, complex and acute trauma, relationships of all kinds, self-esteem, and navigating issues related to gender, sexuality, and identity formation. I approach treatment through a trauma-informed, culturally sensitive lens, and I am particularly passionate about serving the LGBTQ+/queer community.
I earned my Ph.D. in clinical psychology from Fairleigh Dickinson University and a master’s in forensic psychology from Nottingham Trent University. My clinical training has been extensive and broad: I completed my predoctoral internship at the New Jersey VA, and I also completed intensive clinical training at the New York-Presbyterian/Weill Cornell Acute Psychiatry Unit, in community-based mental health, and in neuropsychological assessment at the Yale School of Medicine.
What should a new client know about working with you?
I approach treatment through a trauma-informed, culturally sensitive lens, and strive to create a therapy environment that feels warm and conversational, where you can bring in whatever is on your mind and explore it with non-judgmental curiosity. I can guarantee - nothing is ever too strange, complicated, or heavy to bring up in the therapy room.
My grounding in psychodynamic therapy means that I believe our present-day sense of self and ways of relating with others are rooted in our early experiences and relationships, often outside of our awareness. However, rather than purely focusing on your childhood, we can bring these experiences into the present and build insight from the "here and now." From there, we can begin to loosen patterns that may no longer serve you and make space for new possibilities.
Though my orientation is largely psychodynamic, my goal is to tailor the treatment to your individual needs. I may integrate skills from other modalities such as CBT, DBT, and ACT to offer you concrete tools that can be applied in your day-to-day life. I always welcome feedback, and aim for the treatment to reflect an open, evolving conversation between us.
I understand that deciding to start therapy can often feel heavy and anxiety-inducing, and choosing a therapist can be just as daunting. My hope is to help lighten that burden. If you'd like to explore whether we might be a good fit, please don't hesitate to reach out and I'd be more than happy to set up a first meeting.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
The first session is an opportunity for us to get to know each other better, to determine whether we might be a good therapeutic "fit" - because what's most important is ensuring we find the best possible treatment for you. We'll talk about what brings you in for therapy now, understanding that these reasons may (and likely will) change over time. We'll also talk about your history, any goals and/or concerns you have about being in therapy, and my overall approach to treatment. Therapy is a collaborative journey and ever-evolving conversation, so you are always more than welcome to ask any questions and raise any concerns or worries you might have throughout.

In-network insurances
Dr. Dani Greenfield has 100+ in-network plans.
Don’t see your insurance?
It’s common for mental health providers to be out-of-network. Many insurance plans offer out-of-network coverage, so you may get partially reimbursed. Learn more
Out-of-pocket fees and assistance
- Sliding scale: Offers lower out-of-pocket fees on an individual basis, typically based on your ability to pay
- Files your insurance claim: You pay the session fee upfront and the provider files the claim for you, so you can get reimbursed directly without worrying about the paperwork
More information on payments and coverage
Bryant West Psychology works with most insurance plans (whether in-network or out-of-network) to make the financials easy, hassle-free, and paper-work-free for you. We can bill your insurance for you, and you can pay us any deductibles and co-pays by credit card or through Zelle, as well as the old-fashioned ways, such as check or cash.
In-Network: Our clinicians are providers in the following networks: Aetna and its affiliated insurers (Allied Benefit Systems - Aetna, Christian Brothers Services - Aetna, HealthScope - Aetna, Meritain, Nippon, Trustmark ) and student health insurance at NYU, Columbia, New School, Fordham. Your insurance company sets our fees, co-pays, and deductibles, making our services more affordable. We will discuss this with you.
Out-of-Network: We bill all insurance companies, such as United Health Care, Oxford, Cigna, Blue Cross/Shield, and Beacon (to name a few). Depending on your plan, your insurance may pay up to 80% of our fees (and sometimes more). We will do our best to work with you to make payment arrangements that won't break the bank—that is, your bank.
