Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

A Rare Find.
Dr.Steinberg has helped me through a life crisis. Without him, I’m not sure where I’d be today. Dr. Steinberg is intelligent, personable and compassionate.He is both warm and empathetic, which makes it very easy to open up. He is a good listener, but more importantly, he shares his perspective and gives important feedback that sheds light on a pathway forward. I am so thankful for his insight and practical approach.

Fantastic Therapist!
I have been visiting with Dr. Steinberg for four years now. I find him to be extremely helpful and comforting. He manifests compassion and intelligence without any airs of superiority or condescension. He’s just very qualified at what he does and he does it expertly.

Beacon of Light
I have been seeing Dr. Steinberg weekly for over 15 years. Before that he briefly treated my young daughter. Dr. Steinberg combines the qualities of compassion, humility and integrity with knowledge and professionalism rarely found in the mental health and wellbeing field. In fact rarely found anywhere.He has the ability to simplify the most complicated and seemingly overwhelming issue in such a way that it can be understood and managed in a thoughtful and caring way.He is a true mensch ( that's jewish for gentleman ).His broad knowledge and worldly education enables him to discuss any topic or issue that might affect his patients. He applies this to the situation at hand without bias or reservation. It is for this I believe that one can discuss any topic affecting one's mental state without fear of judgement or resentment.He is a beacon of light for me that helps me navigate the inevitable challenges of life.I recommend him without hesitation or reservation.

Profoundly Grateful
I have seen Dr. Steinberg off and on throughout my 20-year marriage and throughout raising two girls as needed. These “maintenance sessions” or “maintenance periods,” as I have come to call them, have always been incredibly beneficial for me and my family. Dr. Steinberg has helped me to identify and successfully resolve issues which were holding me back from finding joy and enjoying my life. I would never have been able to achieve this alone. His many years of counseling experience, in-depth knowledge, understanding, and compassion are difficult to match. Quite simply, Dr. Steinberg has helped me to be the best mother and wife I can be, without losing my identity and personal goals. I highly recommend him to others, and I am so pleased to have him as a therapist.

Dr. Steinberg is a wonderful therapist
Dr. Steinberg is a warm soul. He is attentive to detail, and creative with his advice and solutions, while remaining helpful and consistent. He is honest and persistent, and will help you find the tools within yourself to be your best, while instilling accountability. Don’t expect to be yes’d to death. You’ll never feel unheard. Dr. Steinberg is trustworthy and pertinent. My life has greatly improved since I have started working with him and I am looking forward to seeing all the greatness I can harness within myself moving forward.

I have been working with Dr. Steinberg for over 7 years now. When I first started seeing him, I had debilitating anxiety and was beginning to slip into a depression. Dr. Steinberg helped me overcome much of my anxiety and I feel better about myself. He is knowledgeable, easy to talk to, and an amazing therapist.

Empathic Exuding Good Will
I've kissed quite a few frogs seeking just a competent therapist before discovering the extremely talented Dr. Steinberg. As my therapist for nearly a decade, he has helped me master skills in improving familial relationships, and avoiding social isolation. In addition, he has been successful in enforcing healthy ways of coping with stress and mechanisms to improve organization and productivity.His professionalism, intellect and humor were traits I yearned for in seeking a psychologist.I believe these and other traits would make the most reluctant of patients comfortable and couldn't recommend him more highly.

Helped change my life!
Michael is relatable, funny, down to earth, and tells things how you need to hear it. I was in a dark place and had tried a few other therapists that didn’t work out for me before I found Michael and my life has been improving steadily ever since. I will be continuing on with Michael for as long as he is working and would recommend him to anybody and everybody.

Gifted therapist!
I have been a patient of Dr. Steinberg’s for a few years now and words simply cannot fully express my immense gratitude to him. When I started sessions, my marriage was on the precipice of decline, but it was his aptitude and therapeutic armamentarium that pulled us through. I’m very thankful for his support and genuine guidance during a very difficult time in my life. My sessions with him are always valued and positively thought-provoking. A few things I truly appreciate about this kind soul; he is warm, empathetic, compassionate, intuitive, highly perceptive, has an exceptional memory, and is also quite funny. Dr. Steinberg, you ARE a rarity, do not retire!

Dr. Steinberg is amazing at what he does!
I have been seeing him for a couple years now, and I can say he has truly helped me through the toughest times of my life. I don't know where I would be without his help. After one conversation, you can tell that he genuinely cares about your well being. At this point, he feels more like family than a therapist.

I have been seeing Dr. Steinberg for over a decade, starting in my adolescence, and he has been wonderful. He’s insightful, nonjudgmental, and funny - all the things you’d want in a therapist. He has helped me through many difficult times and is an all around great guy.

Dr. Steinberg is the best!
Our son has been seeing Dr. Steinberg for years. He has made significant improvements and is very happy with Dr. Steinberg. Dr. Steinberg also meets with us (parents) to provide helpful tools that we can use at home to help our son. Dr. Steinberg's input has meant the world to our family and has helped immensely. We would give Dr. Steinberg our highest recommendation.

Dr Steinberg is an exemplary therapist who is compassionate, patient, expert in his field and uniquely empathetic. He has the utmost respect for his clients, particularly adolescents, and his ongoing work with my son has been nothing short of transformative. Dr Steinberg is perceptive and direct while providing a nuturing and supportive environment for his patients. I recommend him unconditionally and without hesitation to any family or individual seeking therapy.

A Long Island Gem.
Dr. Steinberg has been my psychologist for over 10 years now. That is not to be taken lightly as people must know how difficult it is to find a reliable therapist that is worth developing a long lasting relationship with. I get great value out of our weekly time together and have been consistently shown that I am in the hands of a caring, insightful and open minded practitioner. I would not go anywhere else, and am grateful to have access to such thorough support.
