Most therapy practices are a list of independent clinicians in the same building. PPG was built differently — as a multi-specialty group where the people you see are already in conversation about your care.
One practice, not a referral list
When Dr. Emily Bly founded PPG in 2016, the problem she kept hitting in solo practice was the gap between providers. If she was working with an adult who needed couples therapy, she'd refer them out. If a couple's child needed support, she'd hand off a name she barely knew. The clinicians didn't always work the same way, didn't have time to coordinate, and the cohesion clients deserved wasn't there.
PPG exists to close that gap. Therapists, neuropsychological evaluators, art therapists, and group facilitators all work inside the same practice — often in the same offices in Chappaqua and Hartsdale. When you see more than one provider here, they're already on the same team.
What that looks like in practice
- Weekly clinical meetings — our clinicians meet as a group to discuss cases across specialties. A child's pediatric therapist can hear from the art therapist; a couples therapist can consult with the adult individual clinician seeing one of the partners.
- Cross-specialty consultation built in — when an evaluator finds something during a neuropsychological assessment, they can walk that finding to a therapist down the hall, and treatment can begin without a new intake or a months-long referral wait.
- Shared infrastructure — one intake coordinator, one client portal, one billing process. You aren't relaying between providers; we do that work for you.
- One family, one team — when a family has multiple members in care (a parent in individual therapy, a teen in adolescent treatment, the couple in couples work) we can hold the whole picture without each clinician working in isolation.
When coordination matters most
Some situations are nearly impossible to navigate without coordinated care:
- A child whose anxiety is showing up at school, at home, and with a coach — and who needs a therapist, a parent coach, and ideally a school liaison all rowing in the same direction.
- A young adult coming out of a neuropsychological evaluation that named ADHD or autism for the first time, who now needs therapy that actually accounts for the new diagnosis.
- A family in active eating disorder treatment where the adolescent has individual care, the parents need their own support, and the siblings have their own reactions to what's happening.
- A couple in repair work where one or both partners are also doing 1:1 therapy that touches the same material.
In each of these, you don't need a list of providers. You need a team.
