Clinton Hill's mix of students, families, and long-time residents creates a diverse community with varied mental health needs. From Pratt Institute students to working families, Crown Counseling provides accessible, high-quality care. Our therapists are experienced with academic stress, relationship issues, family dynamics, and cultural identity, common themes among Clinton Hill clients.

In person or by video
Every clinician sees clients both ways. In person means our office in Crown Heights, about 18 min from Clinton Hill on the C Train. By video means a secure link, a private room wherever you are, and the same clinician, the same session and the same insurance.
Many people do both: in person to start, video in the weeks when getting across Brooklyn is the thing standing between them and the session. You choose each time you book, not once.
