Our staff:

Dr Irina Volynsky, PhD

I am a clinical psychologist with a PhD from CUNY. I have over 15 years experience in treating various pathologies and personality disorders in adults and children. As a Ukrainian immigrant myself I can personally relate to the distress immigration brings into the life of families and individual patients that I help cope with life in their new environment. Many of my patients are immigrants, but I work with people from all walks of life. My experience while working on project “Liberty”, created specifically to help those who were affected by the terrorist attack of September 11, 2001 gave me profound exposure to treating people with PTSD and terror related trauma. I am here to help.
