Dr Robert Kassoff

Licensed Psychologist

I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist and Certified School Psychologist with over 42 years experience delivering therapeutic services. Compassionate, solution oriented care is offered within a framework of cognitive behavioral therapy.

About Me

I offer a compassionate space where we can collaboratively explore your concerns. Drawing on my extensive experience, I guide individuals to understand how thoughts influence feelings and actions. We work together to develop practical strategies, helping you build resilience and find clear, solution-oriented ways forward. This approach is ideal for those seeking direct support and lasting change.

Approach

You’ll find a practical, steady process that focuses on how thinking affects mood and behavior, helping us pinpoint patterns and set clear goals. Sessions in Bellmore or via secure online meetings—conducted in English—move at a collaborative, solution-focused pace tailored to adolescents, young adults, parents, couples, and individuals. We use cognitive-behavioral techniques alongside careful assessment when needed, with focused practice and feedback between meetings to strengthen new skills. This way of working fits people seeking direct, practical tools for anxiety, mood shifts, attention, and behavior challenges.
