Gottman Method Couples Therapy
Dr. Ingrid Solano
Psychologist, PhD
Selecting a psychotherapist is an intimate and consequential decision. The work is most effective when you are able to be fully yourself—without self-editing, without judgment, and without pressure to perform. My role is to offer a calm, attuned, and intellectually rigorous space where anxiety, depression, and relational concerns can be explored with care, curiosity, and respect for your privacy.
Many of my clients seek support for chronic anxiety, emotional exhaustion, low mood, or a sense of disconnection that persists despite outward success. I approach this work collaboratively, creating a conversational and grounded therapeutic process designed to help you feel understood, regulated, and supported—particularly when navigating complex or deeply personal material.
I offer secure telehealth psychotherapy, allowing for seamless and discreet access to care from anywhere with internet access. Extensive research demonstrates that telehealth therapy is as effective as in-person treatment, with increased continuity and flexibility for demanding schedules. For those who prefer in-person sessions, I also maintain a private office in West Hollywood.
When you contact my practice, you will communicate directly with me. Your care is never delegated. This structure ensures absolute discretion, continuity, and a highly individualized therapeutic experience from first contact onward.
In addition to my clinical work, I am an intimacy consultant for film and television, bringing a sophisticated understanding of relationships, emotional dynamics, and high-visibility professional environments.
My practice is intentionally small and selective, allowing me to provide focused, confidential care to individuals and couples seeking a refined, private, and deeply attentive approach to psychotherapy.

Gottman Method Couples Therapy
Paula Kirsch
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, CST
Some things are hard to say out loud. Maybe you've never quite found the words, or the right person to say them to. Maybe you've been carrying questions about your body, your desire, your relationship, or who you are, quietly and for a long time.
You don't have to do that here.
I'm Paula Kirsch, Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Certified Sex Therapist, and I work with women navigating sexual health concerns, LGBTQ+ individuals and couples, and people in ENM and kink-engaged relationships. Not as a specialty I added on, but as the heart of my practice. I understand your world, your language, and the particular weight of the things you may have never said to anyone.
Whatever you bring into this space, I'm not going to flinch, rush you, or hand you a formula. We'll sit with it together and figure out where to go from there. That's the work, and I genuinely love doing it. Book your Free Consultation on my website.

Gottman Method Couples Therapy
Menucha Banayan
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMHC
Sometimes couples come to therapy feeling exhausted and discouraged — like they’ve tried everything and are still ending up in the same painful patterns. My practice is a warm, supportive space where both partners feel heard, understood, and respected. I work with couples who feel alone in their marriage, stuck in rough communication cycles, or unsure how things got so distant despite trying so hard. Together, we gently explore triggers, the ways you each impact one another, and the deeper emotions underneath the conflict. My goal is to help you move out of blame and disconnection and into a relationship where you feel secure, valued, and truly loved. If you’re longing for closeness again, I would be honored to walk alongside you in that process.

Rochester's identity has been shaped by the legacy of companies like Kodak and Xerox — their rise defining the city's mid-20th-century prosperity and their decline leaving a post-industrial community grappling with poverty, population loss, and the psychological challenges of navigating a city in long-term contraction. The University of Rochester Medical Center provides a major institutional mental health anchor — including one of the country's leading psychiatry departments — alongside a private therapy community concentrated in Brighton, Pittsford, and the Park Avenue neighborhood. Rochester's large Black and Latino communities, concentrated in the city's urban core, experience significant mental health inequities, and culturally affirming therapists are an important but undersupplied part of the local landscape. Rochester Institute of Technology and the University of Rochester contribute academic energy to a city that holds significant intellectual capital despite its economic challenges.
