Meet Dr. Eugenia Steingold

My Main Discovery at Princeton

I studied Cognition (how people think and make decisions) at Princeton University. My main discovery there was that our thinking is almost always irrational, especially under stress, and our choices are almost never optimal. My thesis demonstrated how people are often irrational and fail to make choices that are best for them. This understanding forms the basis of my work in helping clients develop clearer, more effective ways of thinking.

My Main Discovery at Harvard

I studied Child Development at Harvard University, where I completed my Postdoctoral Training. My main discovery at Harvard was that we come into this world equipped with a variety of tools, faculties, and even innate knowledge that help us to learn, discover, and grow. Our potential is truly mind-blowing! This insight fuels my strength-based approach, focusing on the inherent capabilities within every child and adult.

A Lifelong Love for People's Stories

Before fancy schools like Princeton and Harvard, I attended the State University of New York at Stony Brook. My main discovery there was that I love people and their stories. Nothing fascinates me more! This curiosity and deep respect for each individual's journey is the heart of my practice.

My ultimate emotional reward is to see my clients breaking through their traumas and negative patterns. As a mother of three, I know the constant love and worry that every parent is consumed with. There is nothing more satisfying than knowing that you are entrusting your child in loving and professional hands.
