Licensed Clinical Social Worker, SMF, MPIA, MA, MSW, LCSW
A relationship can be likened to a car. From time to time it skids, and the occupants have to get it back on the road.

Abby Leefer, LCSW-R - Perspectives Counseling of LI
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW-R
Relationship and marriage challenges can arise at any stage and may involve communication difficulties, conflict, trust concerns, or feelings of disconnection. These experiences can be stressful and impact emotional well-being for both partners. Our therapists provide a neutral, supportive space to explore concerns openly and work toward greater understanding. Together, we focus on improving communication, strengthening connection, and developing healthier patterns within the relationship.

Bryan Leach
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Couples therapy provides a space for you and your partner to explore how each of you is feeling in the relationship, foster a better understanding of one another, and experiment with new ways of communicating. My primary focus in couples work is on the emotions underlying day-to-day interactions and conflicts, as the goal of treatment is not solely to adjust communication patterns, but to increase trust and intimacy by creating a more secure emotional bond. This, in turn, leads to fewer negative interactions. I believe successful couples work is rooted in respecting the validity of each partner's experience. I don't "take sides," but rather serve as a neutral third party who facilitates the development of mutual understanding.

Katherine Rabinowitz
Licensed Psychoanalyst, LP, M.A., NCPsyA
I work with couples who are having trouble negotiating the difficulty of living together and being in a monogamous relationship. Nearly always, a good part of the problem is communication. People can't, don't know how to, or are afraid to communicate their needs and wants with their significant other. They don't understand compromise, or are unwilling to compromise. (It has two meanings, btw.) The sooner you recognize and accept the roadblocks, and come in for help, the more likelihood of a positive outcome. Learning to listen to the other person, accept what they need and work with it is a big part of the work of couples therapy. It's not easy, especially if the couple has been together for a long time. Sometimes it's past the point of no return, and that too needs to be worked through.
