Why "Morningside"?
At Morningside Counseling and Assessment, the name "Morningside" carries significance, symbolizing new beginnings and personal growth.
​
Evoking New Beginnings: "Morningside" naturally brings to mind the dawn of a new day, symbolizing hope, renewal, and fresh starts. Our practice is dedicated to helping clients embark on new journeys toward personal growth, healing, and well-being.
​
Personal Connection: The name also holds personal meaning for Dr. Alexandra Kutnick, the founder of Morningside Counseling and Assessment. During her graduate school years, she lived in Morningside Heights, a vibrant neighborhood in New York City. This time of intense learning and self-discovery, along with the serenity found in Morningside Park, deeply inspired her.
​
By naming the practice Morningside Counseling and Assessment, Dr. Kutnick honors this formative period in her life and commits to providing a space where clients can find their own moments of clarity and renewal. We are here to support you in navigating life's challenges and pursuing a healthier, more fulfilling life.
