Psychologist, Author, Speaker
Ray Yeager, PhD Licensed Psychologist (NY) • CBT Specialist • Author
I help individuals build emotional resilience, develop healthier thinking patterns, and make meaningful changes in their lives. My work integrates evidence‑based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), practical life skills, and—when desired—faith‑informed guidance.
Psychology Practice
I maintain a private practice in psychology, specializing in the application of Cognitive‑Behavior Therapy with anxiety disorders, adjustment disorders, goal setting, motivational concerns, and managing the challenges of everyday living.
My approach is practical, structured, and collaborative. I work with individuals to develop strategies that support long‑term change. Treatment is tailored to each person’s needs and grounded in evidence‑based methods.
Lectures, Workshops & Seminars
I offer both professional and public lectures, workshops, and seminars for parishes, schools, adult formation groups, retreats, and mental health education events. My presentations blend psychological insight with practical tools for everyday life

CBT Approach
Cognitive‑Behavior Therapy (CBT) is one of the most effective, research‑supported psychological approaches. CBT helps individuals understand how thoughts, emotions, and behaviors interact — and how small, intentional changes can lead to meaningful improvement.
Optional Faith‑Integrated Work
For clients who request it, I offer faith‑integrated CBT that respects one’s commitment to faith while maintaining clinical integrity. This is always optional and client‑directed.
Author
I am the co‑author, with Rev. Michael Bissex, Ph.L., S.Th.D., of Simply Catholic: Walking the Walk, a practical guide for living the faith with clarity and intention, which is in press and will be available through En Route Books and Media shortly.
My writing focuses on aligning one’s daily life with their faith and governing values.
