Couples Counseling Therapists in Flatiron, New York, NY

I offer therapy, with a specialty in sex therapy, to individuals and couples struggling with anxiety, sexual self-esteem, body image issues, arousal issues, and more. I engage clients using an insight-oriented, psychodynamic approach, incorporating techniques from CBT, DBT, and mindfulness. I strive to create a space for you to explore negative core beliefs and personal narratives non-judgmentally, in order to get to know yourself and adopt the skills needed to live your most authentic life.

I work with people to understand what may be holding them back from achieving their goals, whether in relationships or professionally. Often, old patterns that are no longer useful and out of one's awareness are operating. These concerns come up both in individual and couple work. I focus on attachment patterns -- in couples , there is often a pursuer and an avoider, although these roles are not always fixed. I've seen these patterns in couples of all sexual orientations. I do my best to stay away from gender stereotypes and stay open to what is being communicated, both verbally and nonverbally.

Things are not going the way you want. Maybe you're having the same struggles you've had before. You're stressed, anxious, unhappy. You have many responsibilities, you're frustrated, under so much pressure. But, at the end of the day, you don't have the relationship or life you want. It seems easier for other people. You may be feeling alone or lonely. It eats away at your confidence. In private you might question your self-worth, think you're not good enough. Maybe others think you have it all together, or they rely on you. It is especially confusing if you are successful in other areas. You are used to fixing things on your own.
