Edward Black, PHD

Upper East Side conversations about mental health often circle back to the quiet professionals who set up shop along Lexington Avenue. Edward Black, PHD operates from a discreet office where individual therapy, couples counseling, and stress management sessions are the norm. Anxiety, depression, and life transitions are frequent topics, though the specifics remain between client and clinician. The practice keeps a low profile, letting word-of-mouth recommendations do the talking in a neighborhood where privacy is valued as much as proximity. Across from the 86th Street subway stop, 1311 Lexington Ave marks the spot on the corner of a residential block. Directions can be pulled from the map; the entrance blends into the pre-war facade. When questions arise, the line (212) 423-5757 connects directly to the office. Appointments are scheduled one conversation at a time, leaving the rest of the day open for reflection.
