Scott Shapiro, MD - New York

Sonali M.

I have known Dr. Shapiro for several years. He is an exceptional psychiatrist who goes above and beyond in every aspect of his work. What makes him truly outstanding is his ability to combine deep clinical expertise with an active, hands-on approach to therapy. In every session, you’re not just talking—you’re learning practical skills and strategies to improve your life, take your career to the next level, and strengthen your relationships. He doesn’t just listen; he engages fully, offering sharp insights and actionable tools that create real, lasting change.

As a tennis pro who played professionally and a corporate executive, I know firsthand what separates a great professional from an exceptional one. A good coach throws balls; a great coach is 100% engaged, breaking a sweat, fully invested in the growth and progress of their players. That’s the kind of professional I am, and that’s the kind of professional Dr. Shapiro is. He brings an unmatched level of dedication, energy, and expertise to his work.

His cognitive therapy approach is what makes him truly remarkable. He provides structured, results-driven strategies that empower people to navigate challenges, shift limiting mindsets, and achieve meaningful progress. His ability to create a non-judgmental, supportive space allows people to open up, and the techniques he teaches are transformative.

I have the highest respect for Dr. Shapiro. I have told him, as well as others looking for help—whether they are struggling with work, family, or even if they are doing great in their lives but want to take their professional life, leadership, communication, or relationships with their spouse or children to a more meaningful place—that he is one of the top mental health professionals in New York. He can help with all of that. He is compassionate and very caring - a truly kind individual - I highly recommend him.
