Feeling stuck?

Trauma therapy can help.

Center Psychology Group is a New York therapy practice with clinicians specializing in treating trauma and other mental health conditions.

Center Psychology Group is a New York-based therapy practice specializing in integrative trauma therapy. Trauma occurs when the body responds to the present with pain rooted in past experiences, such as navigating pregnancy, loss, or other life-altering events. Whether you’re coping with a recent traumatic experience or feeling stuck in the lingering effects of a past one, our clinicians provide a unique blend of empathic warmth and evidence-based techniques. We’re here to help you find relief and move forward with greater resilience and peace of mind.

We Can Help You Get to Where You Want to Go.

Our therapists have advanced training in specialized trauma psychotherapies, including EMDR, mindfulness, and somatic approaches. These modalities all rely on tracking internal bodily sensations, because research shows that unresolved trauma is held in the body and in the nervous system. When we work with clients, through trauma therapy, we seek to truly know each person as an individual and to tailor treatments accordingly in an environment that prioritizes safety and collaboration.

For Clinicians

Center Psychology Group founder Pria Alpern PhD offers supervision and continuing education in trauma-focused modalities.

The Potential is in You, Always.

After our therapists establish a rapport with our clients – this relationship is the foundation of all therapeutic work – we collaborate at their pace to process and integrate past traumas. Our work can help ease painful psychological symptoms that hold you back from the growth you seek. Reclaim your life from the past.
