I’m Dr. Christopher Ceccolini (he/him/his)—but please call me Chris. I am a licensed psychologist, an Assistant Professor of Psychology in Clinical Psychiatry at Weill Cornell Medicine, and an Assistant Attending Psychologist at NewYork-Presbyterian’s Gracie Square Hospital. There, I support treatment for young adults across the tri-state area as the Director of Psychology and Training for the Young Adult & DBT Inpatient Psychiatric Unit.
I’ve worked extensively with adolescents and adults in a wide range of clinical settings, including college counseling, community health, and inpatient care. I am a relational psychologist who uses evidence-based treatments, including dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT). While my work is rooted in a robust academic and clinical foundation, I also believe in building a genuine relationship with patients, one where both our identities are present in the therapy space. With me, you’ll encounter humor, authenticity, and challenges to the way you see the world.
