Denise D. Correa, PhD - MSK Neuropsychologist

Memorial Sloan Kettering psychologist Chris Kotsen specializes in helping people stop smoking.

I am a psychologist who specializes in treatment to reduce distress and improve adjustments in cancer patients and their family members. I serve as Director of the Communication Skills Training and Research Program. My practice is located in New York City.

I am a clinical psychologist with expertise in treating men with prostate cancer and other genitourinary malignancies. As the psychological liaison to Memorial Sloan Kettering’s genitourinary and sexual medicine services, I provide short- and long-term counseling services to patients struggling with cancer-related issues. Men who are undergoing treatment for these diseases sometimes experience treatment-related sexual dysfunction, and I help them and their partners optimize intimacy before, during, and after treatment. I also work with the Center’s 65+ Program, providing psychological support for our patients who are 65 and older, and I co-facilitate a support group for patients dealing with the combined issues of cancer and aging.
