The idea of therapy can be overwhelming for anyone that hasn't sought it before or for someone who desires to restart therapy. My job as a licensed clinical social worker is not only to support you with whatever issue is taking place, but also to make you feel comfortable and safe to communicate what is usually very personal.

Do you have a curiosity about yourself and a desire to develop your character and circumstances in real and actionable ways? Sometimes this comes because of natural disposition, but most often this develops because of difficulty, hardship, or even pain, pushing a person to evaluate their experiences in order to grow through them. This can be due to relational challenges, anxieties, or trauma, but the common thread is a dissatisfaction with the status quo and a drive to engage it. Do you wonder if there is a better version of your experience available? Let's explore how we might move towards it together.

It's 2am. You're replaying a conversation from last Tuesday, the one where you said yes when your whole body meant no. Again. You scan every exchange for what you did wrong, what made them pull away, what made them harder to please. For years, people close to you have called you "too sensitive," "too needy," "too much." So you got quieter. Smaller. You over-accommodate, then rehearse apologies for things that weren't yours to carry. And somewhere underneath, a thought keeps surfacing: was it really that bad? Maybe I overreacted? Something has to change.

Most couples who find their way here have already tried talking it through — and keep ending up in the same place.
Most couples who find their way here have already tried talking it through — and keep ending up in the same place. The problem usually isn't effort or intention. It's that they're missing a framework built on what actually works. I'm a Gottman Method Level 3 practitioner with 15 years teaching communication at NYU Tisch. I work with couples navigating conflict, emotional distance, eroded trust, and affair recovery — and with individuals dealing with anxiety, burnout, and major life transitions.
