" I am a psychotherapist passionate about providing individualized care to adolescents, adults, and couples.

I specialize in working with individuals dealing with depression, anxiety, trauma/PTSD, and concerns relating to race/ethnicity/intersectionality."

"I believe everyone has a time in their life when they could benefit from additional support. When facing life's challenges, it is helpful to know that there is a place you can turn to for help and guidance. I understand finding a therapist can be anxiety inducing, rest assured I provide a comfortable space that is safe, accepting and judgement free. This and my authentic and empathetic therapeutic style create the ideal conditions for exploration and growth.

"Something happened – something scary and overwhelming – and life hasn’t been the same since. You find yourself avoiding close relationships or social events because you just can’t tolerate the fear that they trigger. You notice that you’re much more reactive than you used to be – loud noises, sudden movements, unexpected events – they all provoke a burst of anxiety. And no matter your intention, no matter how much time passes, you keep reacting, you stay hypervigilant, you look for danger everywhere. When this goes on for some time, it’s easy to become despondent, overwhelmed, and exhausted. This doesn’t feel okay – not anymore."

"My name is Robin Murray. I am a licensed clinical social worker and a certified psychoanalytic psychotherapist in New York and Massachusetts. I have an office in Hudson, New York and New York City. Psychotherapy can help in subtle but profound ways. My work with patients struggling with relationship concerns, depression, anxiety, persistent mental illness, trauma, addiction, social stigma has taught me about resiliency and healing. Working as a psychotherapist involves academic training, continuing education and a fundamental belief in our capacity to grow, change and recover."

"Welcome. I am a licensed clinical therapist with over 25 years of experience working with individual clients, couples and with groups. The collaboration between psychotherapy and Mindfulness and Compassion training is a natural focus of my practice. An important intention in my practice is to help clients relate to their problems as opportunities for awakening and growth, rather than as obstacles that must be uprooted."

"Therapy is a meaningful way to face our biggest fears and challenges. It is a process that nurtures self-understanding and acceptance so that we can grow and adapt to our circumstances.

"Do you feel stuck- maybe in a difficult relationship with someone important or in a complicated relationship with yourself? Have you been feeling that something is missing and you are somewhat disconnected, anxious or depressed? Does it seem as if you will never become unstuck? Let's find your way of feeling alive together. Coming to see a therapist can be highly personal and vulnerable. I treat my patients with deep respect and provide an atmosphere of emotional safety. Together, we will develop a sense of honest curiosity about your world, both internal and external and try to regain the sense of joy you deserve."

"Life can be stressful at times. We all need some guidance and support at different stages of life. And finding the right therapist in New York City can be a challenging and often overwhelming experience. My therapeutic style is dynamic, genuine, and straight forward. My aim is to help you set realistic goals, identify unhealthy patterns, and understand the underlying causes of your thoughts, feelings, and actions. Through my past work with both competitive athletes and at-risk populations over many years, I have learned that people are incredibly resilient, and that everyone is capable of making positive changes through hard work."

"In New York City, it is not uncommon to find yourself stressed and overwhelmed. You might be worried about your career, struggling in your relationship, feeling lonely, or just feeling stuck. When encountering such difficulties, people often come to therapy in order to find out what's wrong and feel better."

"Stop and think about it! Do you feel anxious, unfulfilled, or have difficulty reaching your goals? Are you feeling depressed, perhaps experiencing suicide ideation? Depression is very difficult to manage on your own, and you won't have to when I am your therapist. Whether you are an adolescent or adult, you will have coping tools I will share with you during our sessions together at your disposal to help you feel more empowered and in greater control of your life. Would you like to become more self-aware? Our focus on mindfulness will facilitate your journey of self-realization."

"Is something haunting you from your past? Do you feel anxious and depressed and don't know the cause? Do you have difficulties finding connection with your loved ones or sustaining long-term relationships? Have you gone through childhood trauma, sexual abuse, or assault and are still suffering? You can work through these problems to become your true, authentic, whole self through the process of therapy. "

"I build a supportive, collaborative relationship committed to maximizing positive relationships and personal potential. I work with history, dreams and current problems in living. I offer a generous sliding scale, particularly to people in the arts and free-lancers."

"I believe that the ultimate goal of therapy is to alleviate pain and suffering, and that everyone has the capacity for growth and change. By developing a caring, empathic, and trusting relationship with my clients, it becomes possible to gain insight and clarity about relationships, problems and personal patterns. It is through this process that one can grow and realize a level of peace and acceptance. I also believe that genuine growth is only possible when I view the clients I work with through the lens of multiple personal identities (e.g., sexual orientation, gender) and cultural identities (e.g., race/ethnicity, religion). I am proficient in Mandarin and can understand 3 other Chinese dialects. Having lived in Asia a significant part of my life, I am familiar with Asian cultural issues."

"Do you find yourself struggling in your relationships? Do you have anxious, worrying thoughts? Are past experiences negatively influencing your present? We often learn to understand ourselves, and the actions and behaviors of others, through the lens of our early life experiences. I will help you disentangle the complex webs that we all form, which may feel insurmountable to conquer alone. I am committed to providing a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental therapeutic space where we will explore uncharted areas of your life to make connections between prior experiences and current emotions in order to develop insight and growth. "

"My first goal in working with individuals and couples is to provide a non-judgmental, accepting and affirming space. Through our unique therapeutic alliance, you will develop awareness around the thoughts, feelings and behaviors that have perhaps made life feel unmanageable. We will develop strategies based on various modalities which have proven to be successful in bringing positive change. Together we will create a picture of what a meaningful life looks like for you and we will work together to manifest it into reality."
