Susan Friedberg

The Upper West Side offers quiet side streets that feel a world away from Broadway’s buzz. One of those is West 70th, where Susan Friedberg maintains an office for private social work. The practice sits in a pre-war building just off the avenue, a short walk from both the subway and the park.

You’ll find her at 213 W 70th St #1, New York, NY 10023. The focus here is clinical support rather than case management—individual therapy, family counseling, and crisis intervention are common reasons people reach out. Many clients also come for grief work or life-transition guidance, especially during moves, career shifts, or later-life adjustments.

If the timing feels right, call (212) 257-3618 to set up an initial conversation. There’s no need to decide anything over the phone; the first meeting is simply a chance to see if the approach aligns with what you’re looking for.
