Patient & Clinician Testimonials

  • "Working under Dr. Tuvia’s supervision as a pre-licensed clinician was a deeply supportive and formative experience. She was knowledgeable and reliable in our weekly supervision meetings, helping me thoughtfully conceptualize clients and sharpen my clinical insight. She also provided invaluable mentorship as I began building my own practice, offering guidance that extended beyond clinical work. I especially appreciated the sense of community she fostered. Through social gatherings, guest speakers, and group supervision, she created a rich learning environment that supported both professional growth and connection with other therapists. Her mentorship has a lasting impact on my development as a clinician."

  • “Working at UWS from 2020 to 2025 was one of the most formative chapters of my professional life. I cannot say enough about the integrity, mentorship, and leadership that define this practice. From the very beginning, I felt supported not only as a clinician, but as a person. Dr. Tuvia fostered growth, curiosity, and excellence, consistently encouraging me to deepen my clinical skills, trust my instincts, and develop my own voice — all while guiding me with wisdom and compassion. The foundation I built here is the reason I feel confident in my independent practice today. The standards of care and professionalism modeled at UWS truly shaped the clinician I have become. I am deeply grateful to have been part of this practice’s journey.”

  • "I am so grateful for my experience at The Upper West Side Therapy Group, where I trained as a postdoctoral fellow and stayed with the group as a licensed psychologist for a subsequent year. Dr. Tuvia is an exceptional clinical supervisor, is admirably available to her clinicians, and is always looking for new ways to make her practice stronger. She fosters a great sense of community among her clinicians, in a field in which clinicians often feel isolated. She was also very helpful and generous in supervising me as I moved into my own private practice. I highly recommend this practice for a new or training clinician!"

    —Margo B.

  • "UWS Therapy Group is one of those special practices where clinicians and clients alike are able to not only grow but bloom. Through her practice, Dr. Hillary Lewin Tuvia fosters an environment where connection is paramount to the therapeutic process. She encourages opportunities for learning by inviting guest speakers as part of group supervision and empowers staff clinicians to present to peers on topics of special interest. The guidance and support I've received during my tenure there has been unmatched; I believe this directly translates into the quality of care I've been able to offer my clients. I am fortunate to have been part of this practice to varying degrees over these past five years and I eagerly await what the next decade will bring."
