Dr. Moses
My name is Dr. Elizabeth Moses and I am a NY and NJ licensed clinical psychologist seeing clients in-person in Garden City, New York or virtually. I specialize in individual therapy for adolescents and adults struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma, stress management, and life and relationship transitions, as well as therapy for parents, couples and families. As your therapist, my priority will be to create a safe, validating and non-judgmental space where you can feel empowered to make the lasting changes that you want in your life.
Education + Clinical Background
After graduating from the University of Pennsylvania, I earned my Doctor of Psychology (Psy.D.) at Rutgers University, Graduate School of Applied and Professional Psychology. I have worked in a variety of settings including group private practice, hospitals, community mental health centers, acute inpatient care, and college counseling centers. I have been intensively trained in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and received extensive training in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Exposure and Response Prevention for OCD (ERP), and several specialized trauma-based treatments including: Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Prolonged Exposure Therapy (PE), and Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT).
I completed my APA-accredited predoctoral internship at Maimonides Medical Center, an extremely diverse and culturally rich setting where I honed my skills in providing culturally sensitive care, psychiatric assessment, and increased my training in evidence-based practice.
Prior to starting my own private practice, I completed my postdoctoral training and subsequently worked as a senior DBT clinician at the Center for Cognitive and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (CCDBT). I was intensively trained in DBT by Behavior Tech while part of the fully-adherent DBT team. At CCDBT, I provided CBT, DBT and trauma-focused treatments for adolescents, adults, couples and families, as well as co-led DBT skills groups. I provided supervision to trainee clinicians and led multiple didactic seminars in evidence-based treatments for trauma and in implementing parent-focused interventions. I was fully trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) by EMDR Consulting. I have also engaged in extensive ongoing post-graduate training in both EMDR and DBT treatments to continue enhancing my expertise.
