About David Jarsky, Psy.D.

Dr. Jarsky provides individual therapy to adults using an eclectic approach that primarily includes cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and family systems theory. These approaches allow him to take into account the whole person—including family history, interpersonal dynamics, current stressors, and personality—while also helping his clients address challenges in the short term, develop skills to manage emotions, and challenge unhelpful thinking. He works with a broad range of patients to treat symptoms of anxiety, depression, OCD, ADHD, trauma, relational issues, and grief.
