Getting to know Sabrina Tropper
Hi there! I’m Sabrina, the founder of Counseling Works NYC. I run a small private practice in NYC, working with adolescents ages 13 and up, as well as adults of all ages. I have experience addressing a range of issues, from general self-esteem challenges to trauma. I hold a Master’s in Mental Health Counseling from Baruch College, City University of New York. My basic philosophy as a therapist is that it almost doesn’t matter what you’ve been through or where you come from. If you can learn to get comfortable in your own skin, then things will fall into place.
There’s a way to be confident and self-assured without being a jerk. Maybe you haven’t seen many examples of this or find it hard to strike a balance between saying ‘no’ and being compassionate. As a result, you’re left with feelings of resentment, guilt, anxiety, self-blame, and the cycle just repeats itself over and over.
The truth is it doesn’t have to be that hard. Self-acceptance is not equivalent to being self-centered, selfish, or a “bad person.” There is a way to strike a good balance between being too passive or too aggressive, and it doesn’t involve changing who you fundamentally are. It starts with accepting yourself, learning how to stand up for yourself (or others), and then crafting a life that matches you.
What should a new client know about working with you?
Please Note: the first visit that you book on ZocDoc will be a 15 to 20 minute phone consultation, free of charge. I prefer to speak on the phone first in order to to see if we'll work well together and if I have the tools to meet your needs.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
Our work together will involve a conversation that happens once per week (more or less), where we’ll be thinking through things that are keeping you stuck and figuring out how to get you unstuck. I take a holistic approach to therapy and incorporate a lot of mindfulness into my work. I am also trained in EMDR, a trauma-focused therapy, and use techniques from it with most of my clients.
Sabrina Tropper, LMHC is not in-network with any insurances
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
Initial session: $175 for 60 minutes
Ongoing session: $175 for 50 minutes
- 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
More information on payments and coverage
You can receive reimbursement for sessions if you have out of network benefits with your insurance provider. If you do, I will provide you with a detailed statement (also called a Supebill) to submit to your insurance in order to get reimbursed. I also provide support if needed to existing patients when dealing with insurance.
