Todd Kuntz has been a NY licensed Clinical Psychologist since 2001. His training and professional experience has included inpatient and outpatient substance dependence, outpatient mental health clinics, and private practice settings. He treats a wide variety of psychological, emotional and behavioral issues in children, adolescents and adults, including depression, anxiety, substance abuse/dependence, attention deficit-hyperactivity, oppositional behavior, pervasive developmental disorders, parenting/marital/family difficulties. Problems may arise from family relationships, academic issues, or biological factors which are factored into each client’s unique treatment plan. Growth and change in unhealthy thinking, emotional, and behavior patterns are accomplished as a process of increased insight into ones’ self, relationships, and other factors which are impacting each client’s life coupled with making active changes which replace destructive patterns with new constructive ones.
