We accept most major insurances including Aetna, Cigna, United Healthcare, Oxford, Oscar Health, and Empire Blue Cross Blue Shield, as long as you are a New York resident.
Or perhaps you have a relationship, but you find yourself having the same fight the same way with the same result, over and over. She’s unreasonable and it’s often like walking on eggshells around her; he’s withdrawn, says he’s depressed but doesn’t do anything about it, and makes you feel more like a mother than a partner.
She ghosted you after a first date you swore went well. He told you after 6 months of what looked like serious dating that he wasn’t ready for a serious relationship. All of your friends seem to be settling down with a long-term partner, and your swiping does not end.
That is, if you have any friends—many adults today do not, or at most one, as you have probably seen in the headlines. You have heard, and may feel it yourself, that we are in the midst of a loneliness epidemic.
If our frank and action-oriented approach appeals to you, we hope you’ll reach out soon.
Our approach does not try to fool you: therapy is no substitute for absent friends or love, the loneliness isn’t just a distorted perspective, and relationship conflict often requires more than the direct and honest communication many of our clients already practice.
But we do believe, as our work has shown us, that there is always something you can try, or something about your approach you can adapt. We differ from other providers in being candid about this, and in helping you determine just what you can do differently.
We value love and friendship in our own lives, and so we do not pretend to you that their loss is something you just have to quietly accept, and we don’t settle for telling you life’s hard/it sucks, and leaving it at that. We know it’s a struggle out there, and we are willing to struggle with you.
If our frank and action-oriented approach appeals to you, we hope you’ll reach out soon.
