Individual, Couples, and Relationship Therapy Rooted in Liberation
We serve everyone, with a focus on People of the Global Majority, gender-expansive individuals, LGBTQ+ communities, social-justice–minded clients, creatives, and those in intercultural, non-traditional, or structured relationships and families. Our work centers dignity, connection, and the belief that healing is communal.
Individual Therapy
Individual therapy offers a dedicated space to understand your experiences, deepen emotional awareness, and develop skills for meaningful change. In weekly 45-minute sessions, you and your psychotherapist work collaboratively to clarify concerns, identify patterns, and build insight through validation, reflection, and thoughtful questioning.
Couples / Intimate Relationship Therapy
Relationship therapy helps partners address communication challenges, rebuild trust, deepen intimacy, and navigate transitions. Together, we explore how past experiences, intergenerational beliefs, and trauma shape relational dynamics. With your psychotherapist’s support, partners determine how they want to move forward—strengthening the relationship, opening or closing structures, engaging in mediated separation, divorcing with care, or co-parenting intentionally. Premarital counseling is also available.
Family / Household Therapy
Families come in many configurations. Family or household therapy supports loved ones in addressing challenges that impact the emotional health of the home. Therapy can guide families through major transitions, conflict, communication issues, emotional or behavioral concerns, and moments of crisis.
Specialty Areas
Immigrant Family Reunification
Returning to family life after separation requires tenderness and skill. This work focuses on rebuilding trust, strengthening communication, and healing the emotional injuries of displacement.
Family-Focused Brief Therapy
For households navigating acute stress or crisis, this short-term, goal-directed approach helps stabilize the family, reduce overwhelm, and restore healthier functioning.
Adolescent / Teen Therapy (with Family Involvement)
Therapy supports young people experiencing academic pressure, emotional changes, or challenges at home. Because family systems strongly influence youth well-being, caregivers may be included to support long-term growth and stability.
Coaching & Transformative Leadership
Coaching supports personal or professional transitions through structured exploration, accountability, and goal setting. Psychotherapists offering this service bring their own transformational frameworks to guide growth. Please email us if you are interested in coaching.
Group Therapy
Group therapy provides a supportive and affordable way to explore personal challenges in community. Groups are kept small (6–8 participants) to foster connection, safety, and depth. With guided support, members learn tools, practice coping skills, and build emotional resilience. Groups typically run 8–10 weeks, with opportunities for ongoing work. Self-pay and insurance options are available.
Good Faith Estimate (“No Surprises Act”)
Under federal law, clients who self-pay or use out-of-network benefits are entitled to a Good Faith Estimate for the cost of care. Providers must give this estimate in writing at least one business day before services begin.
If you receive a bill that is $400 or more above your Good Faith Estimate, you have the right to dispute it. (Cancellation fees are excluded.) Keep a copy of your estimate.

New NY and CT Credit Card Disclosure Requirements
New laws in New York and Connecticut require healthcare providers to share specific information when credit cards are used to pay for medical or mental health services.
Using a credit card may result in interest charges, fees, or other debt obligations determined by your card issuer. These charges are set by your bank, not by our practice.
As part of these laws, clients are asked to acknowledge that they understand these potential risks when choosing to use a credit card. This disclosure is informational and does not change your access to care. Other payment options, such as debit cards or HSA/FSA cards, may be available depending on your account.
If you have questions about payment options, we are happy to review them with you.
Our Approach to Billing with Care
We’ve made several intentional choices to reduce harm and increase flexibility:
If you have a copayment, coinsurance or deductible; at this time, we don’t pre-bill or bill at the time of service but 24-48 hours after your session.
The client portal allows you to voluntarily store a payment method for convenience.
Late cancellation or no-show fees may apply for self-pay and commercial insurance plan holders, as your therapist has held time specifically for you and may not be able to refill that slot within the week. We understand that emergencies happened, discuss with your therapists for opportunities to reschedule if they are able.
Many therapists waive late fees at their discretion, especially when circumstances are communicated.
No-interest payment plans are available if cost becomes a concern, do not hesitate to reach out to the office.
These policies are not about punishment or pressure. They reflect the real impact of time held, labor provided, and the shared responsibility required to sustain care in a relational, ethical practice.
Choice, Transparency, and Shared Care
We believe people should have a choice in who manages their care and how. Our office practices are designed to be as mindful as possible of financial stress, life disruptions, and systemic barriers while also honoring the labor of our therapists and the sustainability of the practice.
If you have questions, need support, or want to explore payment options, our office community is here to help. We appreciate the trust you place in us and remain committed to transparency as we navigate an increasingly complex healthcare landscape together.
Late Cancellations & Held Time
Whenever there is a late cancellation or missed session. We encourage clients to reschedule within the week to maintain continuity of care. Your therapist understands that life happens and will use their discretion when deciding whether to apply a late cancellation or no-show fee. We know that illness, emergencies, and unexpected disruptions come up. In these situations, late fees are often waived, especially when you’re able to communicate and reschedule.
Our goal is to offer care with flexibility while honoring the time set aside for you. If you have questions or concerns about scheduling or fees, talk to your therapist. If a payment plan is needed, please speak with the office.
