Welcome, Therapy in NYC

Hello, My name is Alana. I am an NYC-based relationship therapist & coach. My greatest joy in life is journeying with you through your relationships.

I help adults and couples navigate difficult relationship patterns, so they can embrace the most authentic and joyful life imaginable. I focus on helping adult individuals and couples heal from relational trauma - including codependent dynamics, narcissistic abuse, traumatic relationships, addiction, attachment trauma, couples therapy, and family of origin relationships. Step inside to learn more about beginning the healing journey:

What are difficult relationship dynamics?

- Narcissistic Relationships & Narcissistic Abuse

- Codependent Relationships

- Complicated Family of Origin Relationships

- Couples & Marriage Concerns

- Relationship Trauma & Toxic Relationships

- Addictive Relationships

- Emotionally Immature Parent Relationships


Are these long-standing relationship patterns, both Family of Origin Patterns, and adult relationship patterns, making it hard to feel at ease within yourself?
Do you find yourself stuck in the same dynamics, despite your efforts to change?
Are you hoping to feel more connected in your relationships, and more grounded in your life?

In therapy, we’ll look closely and compassionately at the patterns keeping you stuck, whether rooted in early experiences, family of origin dynamics, or relationships. Together, we’ll work toward more clarity, deeper connection, and a greater sense of peace - both within yourself and in your relationships.
