Eric Koblenz Psychotherapy

At EK Psychotherapy, we understand that taking the first step towards seeking help can be a daunting and overwhelming experience. We want to assure you that our practice is dedicated to providing a safe, non-judgmental, and supportive environment for you to explore your thoughts, feelings, and concerns.

Our Services

We offer psychotherapy services for individual adults and teens, play therapy for children, and couples counseling for relationships of all kinds. Our experienced and licensed therapist, Eric Koblenz, has a warm and compassionate approach that draws from a range of theoretical backgrounds, including Somatic Psychotherapy, Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy, Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy, Emotionally Focused Therapy, and Sand Play Therapy.

Working with Adults and Teens

As your therapist, Eric Koblenz will work closely with you to explore your hopes and struggles. Together, you will identify the knots that restrict your authentic expression and work towards a fuller and more satisfying experience in the world. We work with a wide range of concerns, including depression, shyness, shame, guilt, low self-esteem, and decision-making challenges.

Working with Children

When it comes to children, we understand that their developing brains require a unique approach. Our play therapy services utilize symbolic play to help children express and resolve their struggles. Using modalities such as Sand Play, we will attune to your child's needs and work with them to overcome their challenges.

Working with Couples

In our couples counseling services, we support partners navigating a range of relational distresses, including emotional disconnection, difficulty communicating, loss of passion, sexual difficulties, infidelity, and personal trauma histories. Our approach is centered on creating a safe and supportive environment for you and your partner to explore new perspectives and work towards a more fulfilling relationship.
