Pamela Polizzi Psychotherapy

Group FAQs

Do you take insurance?

Some of our therapists in the practice have openings to see patients who have Blue Cross Blue Shield in New York. We do ask that you call your insurance, the member services number on the back of your card, before the initial intake session to verify your insurance benefits cover mental health treatment.  

If you need any additional information from us, please email Pam directly at [email protected].

Where is your office located?

Our NYC office is located in Chelsea.

How long are therapy sessions?

Psychotherapy sessions (individual, couples and family) are 45 minutes. Groups are usually 75 minutes long. We offer a free 15 minute consultation phone call for all potential new patients.

Do you give homework assignments after sessions?

Ah, never will we do a worksheet assignment with you, or have you do weekly homework assignments. It’s just not our style, or vibe. Interestingly enough, we were all trained in behavioral models of treatment for eating disorders but we believe a worksheet and formulatized homework for therapy is similar to BMI (Body Mass Index)…. it doesn’t take into account the uniqueness of YOU!

Behavioral treatment models of therapy are important to the field of psychology, unfortunately they are not YOU-based; this is what sets us apart in the type of treatment we  provide.
