Debra Japko, PsyD

New York City now has another psychologist office on West End Avenue, bringing clinical insight to the Upper West Side. Dr. Debra Japko offers evidence-based therapy tailored to adults and adolescents, from managing anxiety to stress reduction and life transitions. Telehealth and office sessions keep sessions accessible within Manhattan or from your own space.

The practice sits mid-block, away from heavy traffic noise between 100th and 101st Streets. 470 West End Ave. isn’t directly on Broadway, so you avoid the tourist footfall while still being five minutes from Riverside Drive’s quieter paths. Pharmacies, cafés, and the 1/2/3 subway at 96th Street make visits simple to pair with the rest of your commute.

Whether you need help with recurring negative thoughts, relationship strains, or adjusting to big changes, the sessions are structured for one-on-one progress, not generic workshops. Some clients combine talk therapy with targeted coping strategies for specific concerns; others focus on long-term self-growth without sticking to one “type” of treatment frame.

Call (212) 580-6625 to schedule. A map to the office is at the bottom: directions. West End is two blocks from the water—perfect if you want a calm walk before or after your session.
