Prospect Heights, bordered by Atlantic Ave and Prospect Park, is one of the closest neighborhoods to our practice. Many of our clients walk or bike from Prospect Heights for their sessions. The neighborhood's proximity to cultural institutions like the Brooklyn Museum and Brooklyn Botanic Garden makes it easy to combine a therapy session with self-care activities nearby. We offer flexible scheduling to accommodate the busy schedules of Prospect Heights professionals and families.
Getting to our office
The 3 train to Kingston Ave is the quickest way over, or walk straight down Eastern Pkwy.
- 3 Train (preferred)
From Eastern Pkwy–Brooklyn Museum, three stops to Kingston Ave, then walk one block east on Eastern Pkwy to Albany Ave, about 3 minutes
- B/Q Train
7th Ave station to Atlantic Ave–Barclays, transfer to the 3 to Kingston Ave, then walk one block east to Albany Ave
- Walk/Bike
From the Brooklyn Museum, straight east along Eastern Pkwy to Albany Ave, about 25 minutes on foot
Citi Bike stations are available along Washington Ave and near the Brooklyn Museum for an easy ride over.
On foot: the office is at 864 Eastern Parkway, on the south side at the corner of Albany Avenue. From the Kingston Ave station on the 3, walk one block east, about 3 minutes. From Crown Heights–Utica Ave on the 3 and 4, walk three blocks west, about 8 minutes. Driving: street parking is usually available on the Eastern Parkway service road and the surrounding blocks.
In person or by video
Every clinician sees clients both ways. In person means our office in Crown Heights, about 10 min from Prospect Heights on the 3 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.
