Dr. Ady Benyishay
I am a licensed clinical psychologist (PsyD) with extensive experience working in residential treatment, sober living, and private practice settings since 2010. My career began as an intern in an eating disorder residential program, later expanding into adolescent dual-diagnosis treatment. Alongside completing my doctorate in clinical psychology, I launched my private practice, where I continue to work with clients through Telehealth. I am passionate about helping people reach their full potential by embracing their strengths while learning to accept their vulnerabilities. My clients inspire me every day, and seeing their success stories fuels my dedication to this work.

First session
In our first session, we will focus on introductions, assessment, and—most importantly—building a strong, safe therapeutic relationship.
Strengths
I believe therapy works best when it feels collaborative and non-judgmental. I listen deeply to my clients’ needs and gently guide them into exploring areas they may be hesitant to face—always at their own pace.
Ideal clients
• Adolescents, adults, couples, and families • Individuals struggling with dual diagnosis (addiction + mental health) • Clients seeking support to process emotions, release stress, and improve daily functioning
Treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I apply Cognitive Behavioral Therapy interventions to help client reframe and change their thinking errors and other negative thinking patterns from their past.
Dialectical Behavior (DBT)
I help and teach clients through dialectal behavioral therapy how to self regulate and be more mindful and emotionally accepted.
Solution Focused Brief Treatment
Often we focus most our attention on the problem and dismiss the solution and small mindset changes can assist with that.
