Dr. Anna Plotkina

Pronouns: she/her

I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist in New York City, who is deeply passionate about my work. I view therapy as a powerful vehicle for behavioral change, individual growth, deeper connection, and transformative insight.

 

When life feels overwhelming or difficult to navigate, seeking help can feel daunting and takes courage. I am dedicated to supporting and guiding my clients through their particular challenges and helping them meet their individual goals in a non judgmental, collaborative, and warm environment. My approach to sessions is integrated and active. I utilize a variety of modalities, (psychodynamic, CBT, EFT). I also believe that a strong clinician-client relationship/mutual match is essential for therapeutic progress. Thus, I do not hesitate to be genuine, open, direct in my work, often challenging my clients. I also strive to utilize a social justice, intersectional, and gender affirming lense at all times.

Training and Experience

I have had experience and training in a broad variety of clinical settings throughout my 12+ years in this field. I have worked with children and families within the school system, in community mental health clinics focused on serving veterans and other underserved populations, in nursing home facilities, and in the NYC court system as an expert witness.

 

Though the focus of my training and professional work, thus far, has been in treating adult individuals with histories of trauma, I am also well-versed in providing comprehensive psychological assessments for all ages and for those seeking diagnostic clarity. I offer individual, family, and couples therapy services. I am proud to be able to provide these services within the context of an intimate group practice setting, alongside experienced, dedicated, and caring individuals.
