What is "Good" Therapy

Good therapy is goal directed and aimed at making meaningful change. This change occurs the context of a therapeutic relationship, in which therapist and patient agree on radical openness, a ritual frame, and a willingness to confront deeply personal challenges. 

In an age dominated by artificial intelligence, social media influencers, and pop-psychology soundbites, real psychotherapy can seem less accessible, too costly, or too time-consuming. Yet good therapy cannot be replicated by algorithms or reduced to a handful of inspirational Instagram quotes. Meaningful change happens—just as it has for generations—within the context of a therapeutic human relationship. Finding relief from suffering is priceless.

Common Questions:

"I don't just want validation and agreement, how is this therapy going to be different?"

Good therapy is about experiencing oneself, others, and the world in new ways. As a psychotherapist, i invite my clients into the unknown parts of who they are. The therapy relationship is leveraged to cultivate challenge and curiosity in understand ones suffering, and the personal responsibility we bear in the maintenance of our pain. Validation in psychotherapy is not a mechanism of change, and is not the same as therapeutic dialogue.

How long will therapy take to see results?

I believe therapy should be goal-oriented and time-limited. Every therapeutic relationship develops at its own pace, and patients progress at different rates. After several sessions, we will have an open discussion about the goals of therapy and an estimate of the timeframe in which those goals can reasonably be achieved.

What is the cost of therapy?

I charge $350 per session and offer courtesy out-of-network insurance billing. If you have OON benefits, you may be reimbursed for part of the session cost once your deductible has been met.

About Dr. Levy

Dr. Yedidya Levy

For nearly a decade, I’ve practiced as a licensed psychologist, refining my expertise through thousands of clinical hours with adults across the lifespan. My training as a doctoral-level psychologist, grounded in psychodynamic therapy and integrated with CBT, allows me to meet my clients’ challenges with depth, precision, and clinical rigor. Over the years, I’ve seen that a strong therapeutic relationship can foster insight and help people make meaningful, lasting changes in their lives. As the Assistant Director of the Yeshiva University Counseling Center and the owner of a private practice, I’ve worked extensively with adults from diverse backgrounds—veterans, professionals, students, fathers, entrepreneurs, and individuals navigating major life transitions. Psychotherapy, in my view, is a bespoke process: no two adults are the same, and the roadmap to meaningful change must be tailored, deliberate, and collaborative. Together, we will identify the psychological patterns contributing to your distress, understand the forces that keep them in place, and intervene in ways that promote durable, internal change. Reach out for a consultation to begin the work of living with greater clarity and freedom.
