Dr. Yulia Gorokhovsky

I’m a licensed clinical psychologist practicing in New York, New Jersey, and Massachusetts. I earned my doctorate from the Ferkauf Graduate School of Psychology in the Combined School and Clinical Psychology program. I work with clients navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, emotion dysregulation, stress, and life transitions. My goal is to help patients develop insight, confidence, and emotional balance in a space that feels safe and supportive. I believe therapy can be both practical and deeply meaningful—a place to reflect, grow, and create lasting change.

My approach is collaborative, flexible, and grounded in evidence-based interventions like CBT and DBT. I tailor treatment to each person’s needs, helping clients understand how their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors connect. Together, we work to shift unhelpful patterns, strengthen coping skills, and foster greater self-awareness. I aim to move at a pace that feels right for you—balancing insight with action.

The first session is about getting to know you—your goals, history, and what brings you to therapy now. I’ll ask thoughtful questions to understand your experiences, but there’s no pressure to share more than you’re ready for. My focus is on creating a warm, nonjudgmental space where you can feel comfortable and understood. By the end, we’ll start to identify what you’d like to work on and how we can approach it together.
