Getting to know Dr. Brendan Krovatin
Hi, I’m Dr. Brendan Krovatin, a New York State licensed clinical psychologist. I provide individual and couples psychotherapy online and in-person to adults of all ages, sexual orientations, and gender identities/expressions. I have extensive training and experience working with adolescents and adults struggling with anxiety, attachment and relationship issues, depression, issues around becoming an adult, trauma in all its complexities, existential questions and concerns, communication difficulties in couples, as well as issues related to male identity, masculinity, and what it means to be a man in modern times.
Additionally, my doctoral dissertation research focused on male artists, their creative process, and their struggles with self-definition; artists continue to be an area of clinical interest to me. I primarily work with adults, and particularly enjoy and value my work with emerging adults (18-25) – a pivotal developmental period of growth and self-definition.
What should a new client know about working with you?
I have extensive experience treating a broad range of mental health concerns from a psychodynamic and relational framework, integrating multiple treatment modalities, including Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), and Short-Term Dynamic Psychotherapy (STDPT). I earned my Ph.D. in clinical psychology at the Derner School of Psychology at Adelphi University. I completed my postdoctoral fellowship at Columbia University’s Counseling and Psychological Services and my predoctoral internship at the William Alanson White Institute and Silver Hill Hospital. I received my bachelor degree with a major in Humanities & Augustinian Studies from Villanova University.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
I believe that therapy is a unique space to examine our personal stories, our wounds, strengths, and challenges in a space of compassion, curiosity, and creative engagement. In session together, we will work to understand who you are, what’s happening in your life, and how it is impacting you in the short and long term. We will focus on alleviating your symptoms and “difficulties in living” and see how they connect to your past experiences and relationships. As we navigate these feelings, patterns will emerge and we will work together to help you keep the behaviors that are serving you and change those that are not. Navigating your inner world and struggles can be difficult, and I approach this work with warmth, delicacy, empathy, and occasionally humor to make the work more manageable. I help you to take the ultimate risk of being fully yourself: to express and honor who you are in your daily life, at school or work, among family, in love and in friendships, and the various roles you embody in your world. We will be partners in this journey – co-creators of a healing therapeutic experience tailored to you.

In-network insurances
Dr. Brendan Krovatin has 200+ 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
Ongoing session: $200-350 for 50 minutes
- 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
- Charges post-reimbursement amount: This provider will only charge you for the amount you pay after you get reimbursed from your insurance plan, so you don’t need to pay the session fee upfront
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 insurances (Allied Benefit Systems - Aetna, Christian Brothers Services - Aetna, Health Scope - Aetna, Meritain, Nippon, Trustmark ) and student health insurance at NYU, Columbia, New School, and Fordham. Your in-network insurance company sets our fees, co-pays, and deductibles, making our service 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 fee (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.
