Getting to know Dr. Rihab Mahmood

One of the bravest and hardest things we can do in life is face ourselves. Choosing to begin therapy means you are in a place where you may be trying to make sense of your memories, struggling to cope with painful feelings, or seeking self-reflection. It would be an honor to accompany you on your journey of healing and self-discovery. I believe that we simultaneously exist as many different versions of ourselves. While life has nurtured and cultivated some of those versions with love and acceptance, it has also forced us to cut off and disown others due to shame and abandonment. Therapy is a journey of reclaiming, nurturing, and embracing versions of ourselves that we may have lost over the course of life. We need to know and embrace all these selves in order to be the most authentic and full iteration of who we are. I hold a PsyD in Child Psychology and an MSEd from Pace University. My clinical training includes an internship at the Institute of Living, where I gained valuable experience working with diverse populations. I am committed to supporting you with compassion and understanding as you explore your inner world and grow toward healing.

What should a new client know about working with you?

As a therapist, I am committed to being authentic, relational, and compassionate. Therapy should be a warm, safe space for you make sense of the experiences, memories, and emotions that make up your inner world. I will always contextualize your experiences within your cultural and family systems and I do not believe in blindly pathologizing cultural practices. I prioritize facilitating an anti-oppressive, anti-racist space that takes into account social and systemic experiences that impact you. I hope that therapy provides a safe and healing space for your journey in reclaiming, accepting, and embracing who you are.

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.
