Couples therapists in New York

I have been in the health care field for over 10 years. When working with individuals, I believe it’s important to take a humanistic approach and focus on what a client’s goals. Providing a safe non-judgement space is important in order to have a successful relationship. I like to meet individuals where they are and utilize a person-centered approach when discussing coping skills or creating goals for outside of the counseling session.

Hi, I’m Chamin!

I bring over 25 years of experience to my work with individuals, couples, and groups, helping them move from feeling overwhelmed to truly empowered. My expertise has led to regular media contributions on platforms like The TODAY Show and CBS Sunday Morning, and I am the author of Seeking Soulmate: Ditch the Dating Game and Find Real Connection. I founded Chamin Ajjan Psychotherapy to provide a warm, welcoming, and supportive space where clinical excellence meets compassionate care and a little pop culture when I can throw it in. We are the regional clinic for the National Social Anxiety Center providing evidence-based treatment that upholds the rigorous standards of the organization. I am dedicated to helping you navigate life's challenges with a collaboration rooted in deep experience and practical, effective tools.

Our couples or relationship therapy framework is designed for partners seeking to rebuild intimacy, improve communication, and navigate life transitions. Please note: Our outpatient practice does not provide crisis intervention, court-mandated counseling, high-conflict mediation, or active separation/divorce litigation services.

I've spent over 40 years helping people navigate some of life's most challenging moments — and that work began long before I had a formal practice. Coming of age during the AIDS crisis, I watched everyone around me step into caregiving roles, often while struggling themselves. Witnessing the emotional weight of that — the anxiety, the fear, the toll — shaped everything about how I approach this work. My focus ever since has been helping people not just survive difficult experiences, but genuinely grow from them.

I've maintained a private practice in psychotherapy since 1983, and I hold a doctorate from Columbia University along with post-doctoral training in Organizational Development.

Outside of work, you'll find me hiking, swimming with my family, or playing the ukulele.

Being a young professional in New York City means juggling a lot at once. A demanding job, relationships, family expectations, and the quiet question of whether you're actually building the life you want. If you're feeling stretched thin, stuck, or unsure of your next move, you're not alone, and you don't have to figure it out by yourself.

I work with driven, high-achieving individuals in their 20s and 30s who are navigating career pressure, relationship challenges, family dynamics, and the everyday stress of living and working in a fast-paced city. Many of my clients are successful on paper but feel anxious, burnt out, or disconnected from what actually matters to them. Others are at a crossroads, being a career change, a relationship decision, a move, a new phase of adulthood, and want support thinking it through clearly.

Therapy with me isn't just a space to vent. It's a space to grow. I'll challenge you when it's useful, support you when things are hard, and help you leave each session with something you can actually use. If you're ready to stop just getting through the week and start building a life that feels aligned and sustainable, I'd love to work with you.
