Getting to know Peter Douglas
All of us retain the capacity to change in fundamental ways. I am here to support, clarify, and help execute that potential.
I utilize traditional psychodynamic psychotherapy principles alongside contemporary, here-and-now techniques that deliver results. My approach is respectful, interactive, and dynamic, blending the art and science of therapy with creativity and spontaneity to keep the process fresh and inspired. I tackle complex issues step by step, focusing on deconstructing and dismantling limiting beliefs at their source to support, clarify, and help you execute your potential.
Throughout my 25-year career, I've had the privilege of working with a highly diverse group of people across various life stages and challenges. I am comfortable working with families, couples, individuals, and children. My specialties include trauma and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), anxiety and panic attacks, challenges faced by transitioning young adults, emotional regulation issues, and family discord, among others.
I hold a Master's in Clinical Social Work from Hunter College, City University of New York, which has provided a strong foundation for my clinical expertise and compassionate approach.

Out-of-pocket fees and assistance
Ongoing session: $20-300 for 60 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

Dr. Douglas is awesome. He has been seeing me in relation to a major illness and forthcoming surgery related to the illness and has proven to be really skilled in helping me reflect upon the choices I am making and gain clarity about my shifting priorities. Going through a major illness is a life-changing experience and I am glad that I have Dr. Douglas in my court.

Peter Douglas is an excellent Psychotherapist who has helped me immensely with my depression. I have suffered with depression & an eating disorder for 30 years and seen many psychiatrists, psychologists and social workers. Mr. Douglas ranks among the best. He is very intelligent, caring, knowledgeable in his field. for instance, he employs role playing to get you to confront your negative, irrational thoughts. I have also been very physically ill and, he had devoted countless hours outside of therapy while I was in the hospital and while I was home bound. I honestly can say I might not be here today if it were not for Mr. Douglas; I simply cannot thank him enough for all he has done to help me. Do yourself a favor and see him. i highly recommend him and wish I had seen him earlier
