Meet Rikki Spivak
Hi, I’m Rikki Spivak and I’m really happy that you are here. I’ve been serving the Greater Monsey community for over 25 years in my various roles supporting children and adults. I’ve worked in many of Monsey’s well-known institutions and I am now privileged to work with even more individuals, couples, and families in my private practice.
Experience
I am a graduate of Columbia University's School of Occupational Therapy. I'm certified in many modalities and treatment models and I'm constantly training, learning, and collaborating to provide the best and most updated support for my clients. All therapy is provided by me personally - no assistants or associates. When you start your journey with me, we will be working together for the duration in a private 1:1 environment so you know that you always have my full attention and years of experience behind every session.
Insight
I am passionate about providing the best and most tailored experience for each of my clients. No two people are the same and no two treatment plans are the same. I pride myself on taking the time to really understand the underlying issues and roadblocks and to find the deeper patterns in behaviors and function. Even if you have been to other therapists before and didn't feel satisfied with the results, or feel like there is still some underlying issue, I can help you explore other avenues that might unlock new possibilities for growth.
Compassion
The cornerstone of all of my work is creating safety. Whether a child, adult, kallah, or couple walks through the door, my first priority is that my space is a safe space. All treatment is client-centered and directed with a focus on a holistic approach to growth and healing. I take the time to establish crucial rapport, attachment, and attunement to ensure a healthy dynamic that supports our goals. I recognize each client as an individual with their history, fears, hopes, and dreams. Together, we will work to make those dreams a reality.
