As a clinician, I believe that one of the most important components of psychotherapy is having an atmosphere which is supportive, patient, validating and compassionate. I approach my patients with integrity and a commitment to help you create a higher quality of life that resonates with your authentic self. I believe that meaningful change occurs within the context of a strong therapeutic relationship. I offer a warm, attentive, and collaborative space where clients can slow down, reflect, and explore patterns that may be keeping them stuck. Together, we work to uncover underlying issues, build insight, and develop lasting strategies for growth and emotional well-being.

Find the right couples therapist for you
Headway makes it easy to find support for your relationship — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing a Couples Therapist in New York
Searching for couples therapists in New York starts with what you and your partner want to work on together. Couples therapy can support communication patterns, recurring conflict, trust after infidelity, major life changes, and parenting disagreements. Needs and available therapists can vary across urban and rural parts of New York, so it helps to look for training that matches your situation. Some therapists are licensed marriage and family therapists, and others list specific couples approaches, such as the Gottman Method or emotionally focused therapy, in their profiles.
Finding one therapist who works for both partners can take more coordination than an individual search. In New York City, Buffalo, Albany, and other parts of the state, consider whether in-person sessions or virtual appointments fit both schedules. You may also want to compare appointment availability, session structure, and whether a therapist offers a brief initial consultation to assess fit for couples. Reading therapist bios can help you understand how they describe their role, communication style, and experience with relationship concerns before you book.
The cost of couples therapy in New York can vary, and using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to lower session costs. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, and you can confirm coverage based on your location and plan. Browse New York couples therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
