“Dr.Cowins saved me from myself. I am a ADHD BPD PTSD patient. She gets down to the root cause and works with your strengths and weaknesses. I have seen many doctors in my day, but Dr Cowins is the real deal. She patient, kind and honest. Every visit I learn more about myself and how to better handle my life. She caters to patients needs and speaks the truth when needed. In 3 months with her help I’ve improved my quality of life. Hands down best psychologist I have ever come across. Lucky to have found such a brilliant and compassionate doctor. ”

Getting to know Dr. Sinead Cowins
Welcome to Behr Psychology.
I provide individual and couples therapy, specializing in CBT, the mind-body connection, anxiety, depression, health and wellness, and mindfulness meditation. We are out-of-network providers but can check your benefits for you.
Therapy can be life-changing and, although scary for many, it has the potential to be one of the best treatments a person can embark upon for emotional, mental, and physical well-being. Therapy helps you explore yourself, your choices, and your ideals. Ultimately, it can serve as a catalyst for empowerment and self-improvement.
As a therapist, my goal is to help you achieve your best self. It is my purpose to guide you through investigating your wants and needs, the thoughts that trouble you, and the life experiences that have impacted you. With a compassionate, gentle, and sincere style, I individualize treatment to meet your unique needs. Utilizing a strength-based approach, I can aid with a wide range of difficulties, including but not limited to depression, anxiety, ADHD, grief and loss, unresolved emotional issues, the mind-body connection, self-esteem/self-empowerment, and creating meaning and purpose in life. Providing a safe space for exploration is something I hold in high esteem and believe is essential for a healthy therapeutic relationship.
I earned my PsyD in Clinical Psychology from the Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine and hold a Master's degree in Clinical Psychology from Montclair State University. With your permission, I hope to aid you in acknowledging your purpose, help you challenge unhelpful thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, and am committed to working collaboratively with you, at your pace, through the obstacles that have been in the way of your evolution.

More information on payments and coverage
I am an In-Network provider with Northwell Direct Tier 1 plans.
We provide out-of-network billing support for reimbursement for all other clients.
If we are not in-network with your plan we will work to get you significant reimbursement for the cost of your sessions. We submit claims on behalf of our patients so that you don’t have to deal with your insurance company.
Here’s how works. Before you start therapy we will collect your insurance information, check your insurance benefits, provide you with an estimate of those benefits, and then allow you to make the most educated decision possible about your investment in therapy.
If you decide to work with us, we will submit your insurance claims every week and give you access to the portal to check the status of the reimbursements. It is our goal to always remain transparent and to make the process of insurance reimbursements as clear as possible.

Dr. Cowins was a provider I came across after a tiresome search through my insurance portal, which wasn't very effective. I found the zocdoc profile and it seamlessly allowed me to book an appointment and get treatment for my partner and I. I would recommend Dr. Cowins for psychotherapy to anyone needing help as well as Behr Psychology as a whole.

An excellent listener, Dr. Cowins made me feel comfortable about opening up about somethings that I had been holding inside for years. She created such a nurturing space in our session. I look forward to future sessions!

Sinead took the time to really listen to my son. She helped him to focus on his interest and what he does well. She taught him coping mechanisms for dealing with anxiety and negative thoughts.
She was very patient and provided a very caring visit.
