Frequently Asked Questions about the CPC Program

If I am interested in treatment at Columbus Park Collaborative, what is my first step?

Your first step is simply to call either our Clinical Director, Melissa Gerson, LCSW at 646.245.2021 or our Nutrition Director, Rebecca Appleman, RD at 917-885-4624. Based on your needs, you will either be referred to a therapist or nutritionist for individual or group counseling, or you may schedule a more in depth meeting with either the Clinical or Nutrition Director. The purpose of this initial meeting is to get to know you, and to understand your history, current needs and treatment goals in order to design a treatment plan or connect you with appropriate resources.
