Jessy Levin, PhD, MPH
Psychologist
My Role at MSKWe post reviews for MSK healthcare providers who have at least 30 patient experience surveys completed. If you do not see reviews for a provider, it may be because they do not yet have enough survey responses, or the provider may not be part of the group of healthcare providers included in the survey.
Only outpatient providers are included in the survey. Healthcare providers who only work in the hospital or in urgent care are not included in the survey. Pathologists or researchers who do not provide direct care to patients do not have reviews.

About Me
I am a licensed clinical psychologist with experience in providing therapy to people of all ages who have been diagnosed with cancer. Often, people who are undergoing a cancer treatment journey don’t know what to expect from therapy. I help the patients who work with me understand that therapy is a place to discuss all sorts of issues and concerns, such as adjusting to illness, challenges with support systems, balancing competing demands for time and energy, and all those thoughts about their diagnosis and its implications that are spinning in their head but are perhaps a bit scary or hard to verbalize.
My therapeutic approach is cognitive-behavioral and focuses on problem-solving. I aim to meet the individual needs of each person with whom I am honored to be in contact.

My research and administrative work have concentrated on access to mental health care, especially the integration of mental health services into medical care.To that end, I have published and presented on strategies to develop successful integrated care problems to national audiences. I also have a background in health communication and strive to relay information about mental health to a general audience in a clear and understandable manner. As such, I have been quoted (often under the name Jessy Warner-Cohen) on a wide variety of topics in popular news media.
At Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK), I see patients at MSK Bergen and MSK Westchester, as well as in Manhattan. Outside of work, I am a runner and baker (the two go hand in hand!) and enjoy being in nature.
A psychologist has special training in therapy to help people with mental and behavioral health issues.

MSK requires doctors and faculty members to report (“disclose”) the relationships and financial interests they have with external entities. As a commitment to transparency with our community, we make that information available to the public.
