Services
Psychodynamic Therapy
This therapeutic approach explores unconscious patterns and emotional conflicts contributing to current difficulties. It helps clients develop self-awareness and understanding of how past experiences shape present behavior. The therapy creates lasting change through examining recurring relationship patterns and internalized beliefs.
Emotion Focused Couples Therapy
This collaborative approach helps partners understand emotional needs and improve communication. It addresses relationship patterns creating distance while fostering empathy and connection. The therapy focuses on creating secure attachment bonds through structured interventions and reflective dialogue.
Online Therapy Sessions
Remote therapy sessions conducted via secure video or phone platforms. This option provides flexibility for clients who prefer distance therapy due to location, schedule, or comfort preferences. It maintains the same therapeutic quality as in-person sessions while increasing accessibility.
In-Person Therapy
Face-to-face therapy available at two New York City locations. The Midtown Manhattan office offers convenient access for Manhattan residents while the Greenpoint Brooklyn location serves Brooklyn clients. Both settings provide private, comfortable spaces for therapeutic work.
Individual Psychotherapy
Tailored treatment for individuals addressing specific mental health concerns. This therapy focuses on personal growth, emotional regulation, and improving interpersonal relationships. The approach combines evidence-based techniques with personalized interventions to meet each client's unique needs.
