Dr. Jessica Elkin Shack, Psy.D. - Psychotherapy & Couples Therapy 808 Union Street, Brooklyn, NY 11215

"This review is long overdue, but authentic and heartfelt nonetheless. My partner - now husband - and I have have been seeing "Dr. J" regularly for more than five years. She has armed us with the tools to successfully communicate: helping us to see the forest through the trees and not sweat the small stuff; guiding us to share and express the good and the bad feelings in productive and meaningful ways; and providing a neutral buffer to shepherd us through difficult situations. She is always pleasant and professional, establishes boundaries while also building relationships, is kind, patient, and thoughtful. If she wasn't our therapist we would definitely want her as a friend!"

"A very good listener"

"Ignore the review from the previous commenter who complained about money, they're obviously not aware that most mental health providers don't take insurance directly, only out-of-network. Furthermore, I can say firsthand after working with Jessica for the last year that she's one of the most professional, kindhearted and caring therapists out there (and I have seen many). Her approach is non-judgemental, compassionate and open-minded, and her insights and knowledge is spot-on. From relationships to work issues, to adjusting to being a new mom she has been greatly influential in my well being over the last year."

"Dr. Elkin is incredible! She's a fantastic clinician with so much knowledge and expertise, but more importantly, is a wonderful, caring, and supportive person to work with."
