    About Claudia Alter, Ph.D.

    The decision to begin psychotherapy can be a life-changing one. I approach my practice with this in mind. I work with each person collaboratively to address immediate as well as long-standing issues and concerns with a focus on understanding underlying causes. My goal is to enhance each individuals inherent capacity for growth, development and self-awareness.

    Dr. Claudia Alter has 20 years experience as a New York State Licensed Psychologist (Ph.D) and certified Psychoanalyst. After earning her Ph.D. from Fordham University, Dr. Alter went on to earn a Certificate in Psychoanalysis and Psychotherapy from the Suffolk Institute for Psychotherapy and Psychoanalysis and also completed advanced training in working with adolescents and adults from the Derner school of Adelphi University. Dr. Alter currently works as a private practitioner specializing in adolescents and adults and maintains a private practice in Woodbury, New York
