Our Team

The Midtown Practice (TMP) is a professional psychotherapy and psychiatry practice in Midtown Manhattan NYC.
TMP was started by Drs. Dan Goodman and Julia Samton, two Ivy League psychiatrists and long-time friends
who came together to create a group practice of skilled clinicians offering a broad range of services to an expanded clientele.

Together, our group of psychotherapists and psychopharmacologists are committed to helping our clients live
with greater fulfillment, vitality and peace of mind. Curiosity, warmth, flexibility, compassion, and professionalism
are essential personal characteristics of our clinicians. Our team is particularly committed to staying abreast
of the latest research and clinical techniques, continually working on improving our skills and expertise to ensure
our clients receive the best and most effective possible care.
