Professional statement

Dr. Collins is a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Flatiron Center for Psychotherapy. He completed his Ph.D. in Counseling Psychology from Fordham University, and has treated patients across a wide variety of settings including psychiatric inpatient units and college counseling centers. Dr. Collins has considerable expertise treating young adults, patients who identify as LGBTQIA+, and individuals with histories of trauma. His style is warm, curious and open.

Dr. Collins’ therapeutic approach draws primarily from psychodynamic theory but incorporates other modalities depending on your individual needs, particularly mindfulness-based techniques, acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT). Patients appreciate his compassion and ability to provide a safe therapeutic environment where they are invited to attune to their authentic selves. Dr. Collins excels at helping patients explore the complexities of their identities in ways that facilitate greater self-attunement and authenticity.


Message to clients

I believe therapy requires caring for the whole person, not just treating symptoms or challenges in life. I strive to create a therapeutic environment that empowers you to better understand yourself from this holistic perspective. This type of self-understanding enables you to reconnect with parts of yourself that you may have lost touch with, to understand how relationships have impacted you in ways you may not have recognized, and to use this knowledge to form more meaningful connections with others and move forward in life in new ways.

You are at the center of your care. By working with me, you’ll gain a better sense of your emotional needs and how to honor those needs, and you’ll build resilience to meet future challenges. I’ll collaborate with you to identify and better understand the barriers you are facing, but also to highlight and bolster your personal strengths.

Whatever the nature of your challenges, I’m here to help you. I’ll be with you, offering my support and honest perspective, as you embark on a path of healing and move toward a more fulfilled and authentic way of being.
