“I have been seeing Kevin Ferry for the past several months, and he has been tremendously helpful in guiding me through my addictions, anxieties, and in navigating daily life. I have seen several therapists over the past decade, and Kevin Ferry is exceptional; second-to-none. I could not recommend Dr. Ferry any more highly. He is insightful, beyond helpful, and strikes the perfect balance between empathy and tough love. He assists me in facing my problems in a mindful manner which, consequently, enables me to dramatically improve myself and my life. I am in a much, much better place due to my work with Dr. Ferry! ”

Getting to know Kevin Ferry
*Please Note: It is requested that you provide ALL relevant insurance information when making your appointment, including insurance plan name and ID number. Claims submitted through PPO benefit.
Kevin Ferry has over forty years of clinical experience as a licensed psychotherapist specializing in the treatment of addictions. He utilizes cognitive behavioral therapy, incorporating a holistic approach that emphasizes the significance of the mind/body connection, including diet, exercise, and meditation.
His work includes designing, implementing, and directing the first addictions program at Princeton University. He was also on staff at the Cornell University Medical College Addiction Program in the 1990s, where he was one of the first to address psychological issues as a key factor in successfully treating addiction. He has consulted for many programs and worked with leaders in the field of addictions at Brown University, Columbia University, University of Pennsylvania, Dartmouth College, and Rutgers University, where he participated in their Summer School of Alcohol Studies and later served as a guest lecturer.
In the early 1970s, his groundbreaking college credit courses for nursing students and police and social services majors greatly impacted efforts to dispel the negative stereotypes historically associated with addiction. He also designed one of the original outpatient treatment programs for women with addiction issues. He is currently in private practice in New York and New Jersey, specializing in working with patients with obsessive-compulsive disorders as well as alcohol, eating, and anxiety issues. He continues to expand his focus on multiple treatment modalities using a holistic approach.
Education: Kevin Ferry holds a Master’s in Social Work from New York University and has also studied at Rutgers University, Bridgewater State College, and Boston University.

Made multiple unfounded assumptions based on limited data points about me and had a tendency to launch into unsolicited political commentary (e.g., ad hominem critiques of moral character of those in investment banking). Nice guy overall but not that insightful and certainly not worth the money.
