About Dr. Raskin
I have been a practicing psychologist for more than 30 years. Since I retired from my academic
position at Teachers College, Columbia U., I have spent more time focusing on the issues I have
been passionate about since I started graduate school, such as gender equality, work/family
dynamics, individual growth, helping couples, and assisting with military transitions. It is
wonderful to see someone come into their own, whether it is a new or revised sense of
identity.
I practice both in New York and in Connecticut. I care deeply about helping people know who they are and learn what matters to them. I'm married, have an adorable son and even more adorable daughter-in-law. I also love to laugh, and my family makes sure that I do, often!
