When the trouble lives in the pattern between people, not inside one of them.
AI-generated illustration. Not a real office.
Family therapy is for the people who live a problem together: parents and children, step-parents, grandparents, siblings, whoever helps raise whom. It suits a household where an argument has a pattern everybody can see and nobody seems able to stop.
Nobody in the room is the problem. The question is what the family does together when things get hard.
Fifty minutes, usually weekly.
Each person is asked how things look from where they sit, in whatever order the family finds easiest. A younger child is not expected to talk before they want to.
The work is on what happens between you: who speaks for whom, what sets off an argument, what each person does next. Seeing it once from the outside is often what makes it possible to do something different.
Some families leave with one small thing to try at home before the next time. It is a trial to report back on, not homework to be marked.
Fifty minutes, usually weekly at the same time to start; some people move to every other week later.
No promised result. Therapy works differently for everyone. We can't promise a particular result, and nobody honestly can, but we'll review with you regularly how it's going and whether something else would serve you better.

One fee for this kind of session, the same with every clinician.
A superbill for this kind of session carries the procedure code 90847: family or couples psychotherapy with the client present.
Every session booked here comes with a written Good Faith Estimate in the confirmation: the fee for each session and what twelve weekly sessions would come to. The law gives a practice one to three business days to send one (45 CFR 149.610); this one sends it with the confirmation.
Out of network. We don't participate in any health insurance networks. If your plan has out-of-network mental health benefits, we can give you a monthly statement (a "superbill") to send in. Whether and how much your plan reimburses is between you and your plan; ask them before you start. If you're using out-of-network benefits, the amount we'll charge is available on request before your first session, and we'll give it to you in writing (Public Health Law § 24).
If the fee is a barrier. A limited number of reduced-fee places are available by arrangement. Ask on your free call; nobody is asked to prove anything to request one.

Nothing clinical online. This form asks only for what an appointment needs: your name, how to reach you, who you'd like to see, what kind of session and when. It never asks why you're coming — that conversation is for your clinician, not for a website — and nothing you type here is shared with an advertiser, a tracker or anyone outside the practice.
Book a free fifteen-minute call to see whether we're a good fit. It's a conversation about what you're looking for and how we work, by telephone or video — not a therapy session, and there is nothing to pay for it.
