EFT
Merrisa Dawn Santos
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC, NCC, CCTMHP, CCTP
In the intricate tapestry of our lives, the pursuit of happiness, safety, and love is a universal quest. Yet, for many, the journey toward emotional wellness is fraught with challenges beyond their control. Trauma, familial history, and the burdens of life can cast shadows that obscure life's inherent beauty. I believe that each individual deserves to uncover, rediscover, and reclaim life's joy and purpose.
As a compassionate and dedicated psychoanalytical therapist, I aim to guide you through this transformative process with warmth and understanding. Through welcoming and conversational counseling services, I aim to create a space where you can explore the intricate connections between your mind, body, and spirit. This holistic approach seeks to assist you in reconnecting with your higher purpose, allowing you to navigate life unburdened by emotional pain.

Resilience Therapy Group
Therapist, LCSW, LMHC, LMSW, MHC-LP, PMH-C
You're the one who holds a lot together, at work, at home, for the people who count on you. Underneath that, something has been asking for attention: the anxiety that won't quiet down, the patterns that keep repeating, the grief or the history you've never had room to feel. At Resilience Therapy, a group psychotherapy practice with offices in Manhattan and Port Washington and online therapy across New York, New Jersey, Florida, and several other states, you don't have to sort it out alone. Our clinicians bring real range, from anxiety, trauma, and OCD to addiction, relationships, depression, and life transitions, so the care you get actually fits the life you're living.
Because we're a team rather than a single therapist, we can match you with the clinician who truly fits what you're navigating, whether that's an evidence-based approach like CBT or EMDR, family and couples work, or a warm, depth-oriented space to understand yourself more honestly. Our therapists work with individuals, couples, families, teens, and adults, and some also offer sessions in additional languages such as Russian, French, and Spanish. Reaching out is often the hardest part, so let's take that first step together and find the right person for you.
