Our Approach To Therapy
At Alloy Psychotherapy, we provide professional, quality, and culturally attuned therapy for individuals from various religious and cultural backgrounds. We treat patients not disorders and we identify root causes, not just symptoms.
What does "culturally-sensitive" therapy actually look like in a session?
It ensures a judgment-free environment—free of bias and assumptions—where your experiences can be fully heard, understood, and respected.
I'm not in a major crisis, but I often feel... stuck. Is therapy still for me?
Therapy is not exclusively for moments of crisis. It is also a powerful and proactive tool for personal growth, self-discovery, and navigating feelings of being "stuck."
How is talking to a therapist different from talking to a good friend?
While friends provide invaluable support, a therapist offers a confidential and impartial space focused entirely on you. Our conversations are guided by clinical training designed to help you see patterns, challenge assumptions, and build new coping skills without the competing needs or biases of a personal relationship. A therapist's role is to equip you with new tools, not just to offer advice. This professional boundary is what facilitates deep exploration and lasting change.

Yedidya Levy, PsyD
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.

Meet Dr. Miller
Kayla Miller, PsyD.
My goal is psychotherapy is to create a connected feeling to each person I work with; a sense of warmth, and safety in the room. Through this bond, I believe an immense amount of growth, insight, and desired change can flourish. Navigating life’s challenges can feel exhausting and unclear, so I am here to help alleviate this burden and work towards an improved relationship with yourself and those around you. I believe in the special and resilient ability we all have to tap into our desired best selves and I am always inspired to be a part of the journey.  Although I was mainly trained in psychodynamic psychotherapy, I work integratively and in a client-centered way; basing my approach on what's fitting for you. I utilize CBT, DBT, EFT and attachment theory to support my clients. I care most about my clients feeling held and heard, and I strive to be curious and open with those I work with.  Throughout my various clinical experiences, I have been able to work with a diverse population of adolescents, adults, and couples with a variety of challenges including depression, anxiety, OCD, and relational and identity issues. I hope we can connect and create a space together to achieve your desired vision of self.
