I am Dr. Mark Balaban, a Licensed Clinical Psychologist with a practice in New Paltz, New York.  New Paltz is in Ulster County and is located near Kingston, Poughkeepsie, and Newburgh. 

My Approach

People are capable of great change and growth, yet often feel "stuck" or blocked from living a life that is full, meaningful, and satisfying.  You may recognize this in yourself.  You may notice yourself repeating unhealthy or unsatisfying patterns in your life and wonder why or wonder how you can change. 

Psychotherapy is a proven and effective way to achieve change.  I view psychotherapy as a place to develop greater understanding and awareness about yourself and to unlock your potential in life.  In therapy I strive to create a warm and empathic environment where you will feel safe to express any and all thoughts or feelings.  I am deeply respectful of my clients as autonomous, complex, and unique individuals.  Together we can work toward developing greater insight and awareness about relationships and other areas of life.  Through this powerful process you will discover new ways to approach life and find new tools to address life's challenges.
