New York Therapist
WHAT IS COUPLES THERAPY?
In a fast-paced, high-pressure environment like New York City, stress, work demands, and life transitions can quietly erode connection. Over time, partners may feel more like roommates or adversaries than a team. Couples therapy helps slow things down so you can actually hear each other again, not just react.
Do you identify with any of these?
- You feel stuck in the same arguments that never seem to resolve
- You feel emotionally distant even though nothing “big” happened
- Conversations escalate quickly or shut down completely
- You struggle to express needs without conflict or defensiveness
- Old hurts continue to shape present reactions
- You feel misunderstood, unseen, or emotionally disconnected
- You love each other but don’t feel emotionally safe right now
We don’t referee arguments or assign blame. Our work focuses on helping you understand the emotional logic behind each other’s reactions, including attachment needs, fears, longings, and protective patterns that show up during conflict.
Sessions are structured, attuned, and active. Therapists help slow interactions down in real time, name what’s happening beneath the surface, and support you in responding differently to one another. The work is grounded in attachment theory, emotionally focused principles, and modern relational therapy.

BENEFITS OF COUPLES THERAPY
TAILORED, EVIDENCE-BASED COUPLES THERAPY
We work integratively, drawing from attachment-based, emotionally focused, and relational approaches to help you understand not just what you argue about, but why those moments feel so charged. Sessions are guided, two-on-one conversations where both partners have space, support, and thoughtful feedback.
You’ll gain tools that work in the heat of the moment, while also building insight into your relational patterns so change lasts beyond the therapy room.
