Ilene Robbins

Ilene Robbins

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 4.4 mi away • Westport, CT


I’m Ilene Robbins, a Licensed Professional Counselor and I believe meaningful change happens through connection, trust, and understanding. Clients often describe me as warm, highly perceptive and solution oriented . I strive to create a space where you can feel safe enough to be honest, understood, and supported without judgment.

I work with teens, adults, professionals, parents, and couples who may feel anxious, overwhelmed, disconnected, or stuck — even when things appear “fine” on the outside. I have extensive experience supporting people through anxiety, depression, OCD, relationship challenges, parenting stress, and major life transitions.

As both a clinician and a parent, I understand how complex relationships and emotional worlds can be. I bring a balance of empathy, insight, and practical guidance to my work, helping clients make sense of patterns that feel confusing or painful and move toward healthier ways of thinking, feeling, and relating.

You don’t need to come in with perfectly formed goals, just a willingness to begin. My role is to walk alongside you, helping you feel less alone, more grounded, and more capable of creating meaningful, lasting change.

Schuyler Manhattan

Schuyler Manhattan

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 15 mi away • Greenwich, CT


You can have a positive mindset with SOLUTION-FOCUSED THERAPY. Feeling worried, or your thoughts race, your sleep is off, or you get that feeling in your stomach? At times we get frustrated enough with someone that it affects your work, family life, or health. I know how it sucks to be questioning, stuck, and worked up with tension and concern. Then, self-doubt creeps in--but it doesn’t need to be like that anymore. If you’re curious how to get things calmer, under control, and feel more self-assured, I’m here as a confidant who listens deeply AND offers tools that really work. You CAN increase confidence!

I’m Schuyler ("SKY-ler") Manhattan, a licensed CT-based counselor and coach with an opening now for morning, afternoon, or evening. I see adult individuals, couples and families online and in-person.

Types of modalities we may use:

  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
  • Emotionally Focused Therapy
  • Gottman Method
  • Hypnotherapy
  • Motivational Interviewing
  • Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP)
  • Positive Psychology
  • Reality Therapy
  • Solution Focused Brief (SFBT)
  • Somatic
  • Structural Couple Therapy
  • Structural Family Therapy

I graduated from the University of Pennsylvania (UPenn) with a graduate degree in Mental Health Counseling. I also graduated from NYU.

Therapist

Therapy should be as unique as the individual seeking it—what works for one person may not work for another. I provide a relaxed, welcoming environment where you can explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences at your own pace. My approach is grounded in attachment theory and psychodynamic therapy, meaning I help clients uncover how past relationships and experiences shape their current patterns, behaviors, and emotional well-being
