I found Dr. Zuckerbeg through ZocDoc. At our first meeting he was inquisitive, knowledgable and thoughtful. I got the feeling that he listened carefully to what I was saying, and he offered clear insight with a good deal of experience behind it. I will continue sessions with him--would recommend.
Dr. Zuckerberg is very easy to talk to & a good listener. He has put things into perspective for me & if I veer off track helps me get back on track. In more troubling times he has been available to me to help me through a crisis. I would highly recommend him.

More about Dr. Richard Zuckerberg, PhD

Psychotherapy offers a unique opportunity for self-understanding and the exploration of new ways of relating to others. I work interpersonally and encourage my patients to share their life stories so they can better understand how they came to be who they are. People come to see me for various reasons. Most have some awareness of their inner selves but continue to struggle with depression and anxiety. They often face challenges with personal satisfaction in their work lives and relationships and seek to improve their self-esteem. My style of therapy encourages self-understanding and fosters openness to interaction. Patients have told me they feel I provide a safe and accepting space to assist with self-exploration and to "try on" new ways of being. One goal of therapy is to help patients clarify past relational patterns that have been repeated over time and serve as impediments to healthier choices. Therapy is a process of self-exploration and discovering new ways of being over time. Many challenges arise along the way, but at its best, therapy can lead to deeper self-understanding, improved self-esteem, and relief from painful symptoms. In therapy, I help create opportunities for patients to live more fulfilled, productive, and satisfying lives. As a co-founder of a psychoanalytic training institute, my career has included teaching and supervising psychotherapists. As a teacher, I have explored the many factors necessary to be a successful therapist and how to optimize positive experiences and outcomes in therapy. I hold a PhD in Psychology from the New School, which has informed my approach and commitment to both clinical practice and education.

(I have been seeing Dr. Zukerberg for approximately 6 months after he was recommended by a friend). I have found him to be honest, a good listener, and helpful in guiding explorations into various personal experiences and perspectives that led me to seek out his care.
My visit was professional, with understanding. We discussed issues of great importance, with Dr Zuckerberg showing concern, empathy and perspective. We discussed options for the future and ways to look past insignificant details. Looking forward to my next session.
Dr. Zuckerberg is very easy to talk to & a good listener. He has put things into perspective for me & if I veer off track helps me get back on track. In more troubling times he has been available to me to help me through a crisis. I would highly recommend him.
Dr. Zuckerberg is a very understanding and compassionate psychologist. He is very helpful and helps me to see my problems and makes helpful suggestions. I feel he is in my corner.
