Anna Hickner, Psy.D.
Psychologist
“I believe that the difference between judgement and curiousity is nuanced in perspective and approach. As a psychologist rooted in holistic practices, I strive to provide my patients a safe and nurturing place to explore one’s personal difficulties. My approach is directive as needed while also encouraging open exploration so that self-perception can shift from judgement to acceptance, and life’s struggles can be met with a deep breath and step forward.”
Anna Hickner, Psy.D. is a Supervising Psychologist and Associate Professor under the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai. As a trained yoga and meditation instructor, Dr. Hickner provides a safe, empathic, and affirmative environment by using a holistic approach to wellness when treating people in individual, couples, and group therapy. Dr. Hickner speaks English and Spanish and has extensive experience working with adults from a variety of backgrounds including race, sexual orientation, gender identity, age, and place of origin.
