Dr. Peregrine M. Kavros, PhD, MBA, MDiv

Dr. Kavros is exceptional. She expresses her respect for colleagues through attentiveness, caring, and humility. She is a highly accomplished psychologist that cares deeply about each person she meets. She goes out of her way to make a personal connection with ease and grace. Her motivation to continue perfecting her craft is inspiring. I have made numerous referrals to Dr. Kavros due to her expertise in: couples counseling, sexual compulsion, trauma, and those seeking greater self-knowledge. She is a wonderful resource to helping professionals and people seeking counseling.

A superb therapist. A deep and bright spirit whose compassion and kindness bring comfort and light. Brings to bear an extraordinary depth and range of training, expertise and experience on problems that most clinicians do not know how to treat. I admire her as a colleague and would take a family member to her for care. I first met Peregrine Kavros in the early 1990’s when a member of my own family was dying from a rare neurologic disease about which Perry had huge knowledge. Perry was a pastor to many individuals with neurologic disease and to their families at that time. Her kindness, warmth and wisdom gave suffering people peace. In the intervening twenty five years I have watched with wonder as she acquired training in a number of areas about which most psychologists know very little. I know her to be a spiritual, caring, kind, warm and compassionate human being, and also a highly competent expert in a number of related areas. Her commitment to continually learning is unusually strong. This give me faith that she will continue to be at the cutting edge of our field. Perry is a gift, a gem!

I have been fortunate to know Dr. Peregrine Kavros as a colleague at NYU Langone Medical Center. While a Clinical Instructor in the Department of Psychiatry, Dr. Kavors both supervised medical residents and treated patients. She was a trusted member of the department and was a thoughtful, compassionate and effective therapist. I recommend her.

Dr. Kavros is a dear colleague of mine. We connected through our ongoing PACT (Psychobiological Approach to Couples Therapy) consultation team. She has impressed me with her breadth of knowledge and deep compassion. She is a highly ethical, committed clinician, who continually strives to bring evidence-based, thoughtful treatment to her clients.

I have partnered with Peregrine Kavros discussing the topic Effective Intergenerational Communication in the Workplace. She is the most thorough and hard working professional I have ever worked with. Her research skills and devotion to her topic are exemplary. In addition she is extremely kind and thoughtful. It is always a pleasure to partner with her and I look forward to our work together in the future.

Dr. Kavros has been a wonderful role model and mentor. She puts the needs of clients first, working in a tireless fashion. She brings to her work the combination of a meticulous, highly efficient style while acting with the utmost integrity and the highest ethical standards. It is no coincidence that she is the recipient of the Robert L Thomson Mentoring & Leadership award as she does not hesitate to support, encourage and lead. She is generous, patient and diligent. I would not hesitate to recommend Dr. Kavros.

Dr. Kavros and I participate in a monthly consultation group with some of the certified sex therapists in the area. I have been consistently impressed with her depth and breadth of knowledge, her highly ethical and thoughtful approach with clients, and her calming and warm demeanor. I have very much valued her feedback in numerous situations and find that her thoughtfulness helps me to think about things in different and even challenging ways. I will (and have) referred clients to her without hesitation.
