New Perspective Psychological Services's Online Review Report Card

Respectful, warm & kind but doesn't overdo it. Things run on time or within 5 minutes. Communicates promptly and clearly. Will not force you into anything.

I have nothing but praise for New Perspectives. I started working with Kitama and Dr. G 5 years ago, and they, particularly Kitama, have helped me so much in the last 5 years. Kitama has expertly, professionally and compassionately guided me through dealing with my past trauma and BPD diagnosis using a variety of techniques and reminding me that I have a whole life ahead of me. He is an excellent listener and also holds space for humor and laughter in therapy. Kitama is more than competent on LGBTQIA+ issues and the entire practice is welcoming and rooting for you to succeed.

I am a DBT Intensively Trained Therapist and have consulted with Kitama Cahill-Jackson for years. He has always been a devoted and compassionate therapist. I have also been impressed by the dedication of the whole New Perspectives team. I would absolutely recommend that other individuals consider their services.

A wonderful practice full of excellent clinicians. Alka is such a competent and empathetic counselor!

Alka is a wonderful clinician at this practice. Competent, confident, great listener, and very affirming while challenging you to do your best.

I have known Kitama for several years now and he is an amazing person and extremely talented therapist! Kitama uses evidence-based practices in his work and is the most skilled DBT therapist I know. Not only has he graduated from Columbia University’s DBT program, but he has also taught at DBT at the university level to graduate students studying to become therapists. overall, kitama is one of the kindest and most empathetic people I know - he is a great listener! I highly recommend Kitama to anyone who is in struggling and in need of a skilled and seasoned therapist - he consistently provides a 5 star therapy experience to patients from many diverse walks of life!

I really wish I could give a better review to this practice. It’s rare to find so many therapists from minoritized backgrounds, and I initially recommended them to other people. I went here 3 years ago, and I’m still having effects from Ave Maria Lewis cutting me off in my therapy session because she wasn’t listening to me. They routinely overcharged me to the point that they were billing me nearly a thousand dollars that my insurance had already paid for. They played favorites in group therapy and looked down at me for wanting to leave. I would be very careful with them.

Would like to add that dr. Gottlieb has helped me SO much since I began and I can't even express how different I feel after less than a year of going here. I feel very understood,validated and respected by her. Best therapist I've ever had hands down. This place is doing magic for people w Bpd and similar. I

I found Dr. Rischa online and couldn't be happier with her. She is a supportive and sweet therapist and truly takes the time to meet you where you are- in session, but also in scheduling and in making herself thoroughly available to clients. I feel really comfortable with her. But beyond just feeling comfortable talking to her, since she uses CBT and DBT techniques in session, my time with her also feels intentional and productive. As a queer woman, I feel safe, listened to, and not judged by Dr. Rischa, which is not always a given for me when receiving care. The office is new and super welcoming. Dr. Rischa's personality seems to come through in her room, as well as in the whole space, which has a kind of feminist art thing going on that I'm into. From my more limited interactions with Dr. Adams, she seems lovely too! All in all, I highly recommend this practice and hope it stays in the neighborhood for a long time!

New Perspective is s great practice if you're seeking counseling. Dr. Gottlieb and Dr. Adams specialize in trauma, anxiety disorder, depression, and grief. They also cater to the LGBTQ community and individuals looking to form healthy relationships. Highly recommend them.
