NYC Psychologist

"Dr. Haley is a wonderful psychologist. She has taught me to be more assertive and helped me find new ways and understanding with many of the issues that have been holding me back for many years. I highly recommend her."

"Dr. Haley is an incredible therapist. She very quickly identified the areas where I was struggling and helped me access my inner strength again. She gave me a perspective and philosophy that I will return to my entire life. I left her office every session stronger, and with actionable lessons. What comes up may not always be rainbows, but I feel more in control of my life and how those in my life treat me after her guidance. Do not expect to walk in to Dr. Haley's office without aim. Nor should you expect her to be someone who sits back and listens and doesn't have an opinion/push back on you. She is thoughtful and challenging - the perfect recipe for a person who truly cares about your growth and long term happiness. Be thoughtful, be on time, do the homework, and you will receive back everything you put in and more."

"Dr. Haley is a great therapist. She listens, remembers, engages and, most of all, helps patients to see where they are struggling. I was struggling with a great deal of anxiety around my work, my doctoral studies and my elderly mother. She helped me get to the core of what was eating at me and engage with my irrational anxiety. I had always known my anxieties were irrational, but before working with her I could control my irrational overreactions. I still have all those same stressors as when I started seeing her but now when the feelings begin, I can respond to them in rational ways so that they don’t eat away at me. Dr. Haley was very good at telling me what I needed to hear, not always what I wanted to hear. She has helped me face my anxiety and move on with my life. I feel like my old self and am very grateful for that feeling."

"I have been a patient of Dr. Haley for over a year. There are no amount of words to describe what Dr Haley has done for my life. If you are looking for a counselor to tell you what you want to hear, and make you feel warm and fuzzy, this is not the Dr. to see. IF you want to find a brilliant Dr. who will actually change your life significantly through honest feedback, empirical caring expertise, and an overall grasp of how to take control of your life, then Rita Haley is the best I have ever found. Whether it be anxiety, confidence issues, a critical inner voice that drives you crazy, or just a loss for direction in life's purpose, Dr. Haley can help you discover the hard, but incredibly rewarding path towards healing. I honestly have no idea where I would be without this incredible woman, and could not praise her work ethic, care, and brilliance any higher."

"I spent around 6 months working with Dr Haley on a number of things from my past and in my current life that have caused me stress and anxiety. Dr Haley's method of self focussed therapy gave me a great insight into the cause of my problems, but more importantly the solutions and tactics to help me work through them or manage them. Dr Haley has an excellent balance of listening, but also providing you with the tools you need to take control of some of your issues. I would definitely work her again, and recommend others to work with her."
