“I cannot recommend her highly enough! Her compassionate and patient bedside manner is impeccable, and she immediately made me feel at ease. After just a couple of sessions, I noticed significant shifts in my life. Her combination of hypnosis and talk therapy is incredibly effective and transformative. I've had about seven sessions now, and each one has been impactful. She is relatable, fun, and funny, making it easy to be completely myself during our sessions. Her approach is not only efficacious but also leaves a lasting impression. I’ve already recommended her to my closest friends because she truly is amazing. The changes I’ve experienced in my life thanks to her are profound. Thank you for making such a difference in my life. ”

I cannot recommend her highly enough! Her compassionate and patient bedside manner is impeccable, and she immediately made me feel at ease. After just a couple of sessions, I noticed significant shifts in my life. Her combination of hypnosis and talk therapy is incredibly effective and transformative. I've had about seven sessions now, and each one has been impactful. She is relatable, fun, and funny, making it easy to be completely myself during our sessions. Her approach is not only efficacious but also leaves a lasting impression. I’ve already recommended her to my closest friends because she truly is amazing. The changes I’ve experienced in my life thanks to her are profound. Thank you for making such a difference in my life.
I was initially hesitant to start therapy, but I'm so glad I took the leap. My therapist Malky has been absolutely amazing! She has created a safe and non-judgmental space for me to explore my thoughts and feelings. I've already seen significant growth and progress, and I'm excited to continue working with them. I highly recommend this therapist to anyone considering therapy. I'm actually looking forward to my next session!"
I Highly recommend Malky ! She created a safe, non-judgmental space for me to share my concerns and help me navigate my situation . Her active listening and insightful guidance helped so much . Booking through Zocdoc was also super convenient for providing someone within network and I appreciated not having to leave my apartment .
Malky was referred by a friend and I am so thankful for that! I am feeling much better, accomplished things that I tried for years and in a couple sessions I reached some goals. I am sure I will achieve much more soon. ??????
I found my visit to be very helpful. It was a virtual visit and it began on time without delay. Malky was professional in demeanor, and heard me to help me in a way that was individualized. She made me feel confident as we worked together towards the treatment plan. Will definitely contact her again!
I felt very comfortable with Malky my first visit. She was recommended by my psychiatrist. Malky has tremendous patience and has great advice to help me with the chronic depression and anxiety I deal with. She is patient and hasn't given up on me like so many other doctors I have seen, have given up and say they don't know how to help me. Malky has always been available for me even if it a day we are not scheduled for a session. She has contacted my insurance company and has offered a sliding scale. I have been blessed meeting Malky and she has helped me make a break through with my mental health challenges with hypnotherapy. If you're struggling and have tried everything and still feel bad. I highly recommend you give Malky a call. She won't give up on you.
I was really good
She’s great. I didn’t want to end my first session. I felt safe and heard. Most people told me therapy wouldn’t help but after my experience with her, I know that’s far from the true. Can’t recommend her enough.
