Issues • Narcissistic Abuse • Codependency • Relationships • Trauma • Marriage Counseling & Couples Therapy • Family of Origin Relationships • Nervous System Regulation • Addiction • Mood Disorders https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c6de957af4683ee60ea6ca6/db7cfa70-c180-458c-8b91-2a287b61eac0/andrew-small-cakVwRzdwt8-unsplash.jpg What I Treat - 30-Something Issues Your 30s can be a season of both growth and uncertainty. It’s often a time filled with milestones and change. Whether that be career shifts, family planning, dating, marriage, fertility journeys, or the early years of parenthood. With so many moving parts, it’s natural to feel both excited and overwhelmed. My role is to offer a space where you can pause, reflect, and navigate these transitions with clarity and compassion. Together, we’ll work toward helping you feel more grounded and confident in where you are and where you’re headed. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c6de957af4683ee60ea6ca6/20d77842-118a-442d-9764-23d3cabdd50d/andrew-small-xrwkFUVsbfk-unsplash.jpg What I Treat - Narcissistic Abuse Narcissistic abuse is a form of emotional manipulation where one person consistently disregards your boundaries, invalidates your feelings, and distorts reality to maintain control. Over time, you may start to question your memory, suppress your needs, and feel like you're always to blame. Many people in these dynamics feel anxious, hyper-vigilant, emotionally drained, or unsure of who they are outside the relationship. This kind of abuse can be subtle and confusing. In therapy, we’ll work together to untangle the impact of this abuse, rebuild your sense of self, and help you feel safe, grounded, and empowered again. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c6de957af4683ee60ea6ca6/c3eb6127-c145-4dd7-ab94-a7a9d9310f3a/andrew-small-cakVwRzdwt8-unsplash.jpg What I Treat - Codependency Codependency often looks like putting everyone else’s needs before your own, and feeling guilty when you don’t. You may struggle to set boundaries, feel responsible for other people’s emotions, or lose sight of who you are outside of your relationships. Over time, this can lead to exhaustion, resentment, and a deep sense of disconnection from yourself. In therapy, we’ll explore where these patterns began and gently start to shift them, so you can build relationships rooted in mutual respect and emotional safety. You deserve to feel grounded in who you are, not just in who others need you to be. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c6de957af4683ee60ea6ca6/6021f2c1-743d-41ac-a312-54fbf5a5fadb/andrew-small-7iHAUa6haqM-unsplash.jpg What I Treat - Relationships I believe your relationships should feel like home, not your greatest source of stress. My work focuses on helping you heal and strengthen the relationships that matter most. I work with both couples and individuals seeking clarity, connection, and change. This includes everything from codependency and narcissistic dynamics to emotionally immature parents, strained sibling bonds, and partner conflicts. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c6de957af4683ee60ea6ca6/0c93fcfe-96f7-488c-8092-df2749a6c491/andrew-small--_Hjt2Tn_uQ-unsplash.jpg What I Treat - Trauma Trauma isn’t just about what happened, it’s about how your body and nervous system adapted in order to survive. Trauma can leave lasting imprints that affect how you think, feel, and relate to others. You might feel stuck in patterns of hyper-vigilance, shutdown, or emotional overwhelm without fully understanding why. In our work together, we’ll gently explore these patterns and support your system in finding safety, regulation, and healing. My approach is grounded in trauma-informed care, integrating mind and body to help you reconnect with yourself and the world around you. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c6de957af4683ee60ea6ca6/2b2bdb5a-8b58-4bf3-8d04-3ee8bbab131c/andrew-small--_Hjt2Tn_uQ-unsplash.jpg What I Treat - Marriage Counseling & Couples Therapy As an EFT-trained couples therapist, I specialize in helping partners navigate the deeper, more complex layers of their relationship. My work focuses on the underlying emotional patterns that fuel disconnection, conflict, and pain - especially in couples struggling with chronic communication issues, codependency, unresolved family-of-origin trauma, and the impact of alcoholism or emotional toxicity. Through Emotionally Focused Therapy, I help couples move beyond surface-level conflict to explore the vulnerable needs and fears driving their dynamic. Together, we work to rebuild trust, restore emotional safety, and create a more secure, connected bond. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c6de957af4683ee60ea6ca6/9062477f-9bef-4d50-8090-c8ec96fe493e/andrew-small-7iHAUa6haqM-unsplash.jpg What I Treat - Family of Origin Relationships Family of origin work delves into the ways in which your past experiences, particularly within your immediate family & parental figures during your childhood, have influenced your view of yourself, others, and the world. One of the most profound aspects of clinical work involves delving into your family of origin and exploring the wounds of your inner-child. Your relationships within your family of origin and with your primary caregivers during your early years shape how you navigate your adult relationships and significantly impact your attachment patterns. By gaining a deeper understanding of your early attachments to your caretakers, you can identify and enhance your self-awareness within your adult relationships. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c6de957af4683ee60ea6ca6/407c5ab8-7c45-4e58-9d82-8533306b4d49/andrew-small-cakVwRzdwt8-unsplash.jpg What I Treat - Nervous System Regulation The nervous system plays a central role in keeping our bodies regulated and balanced, and it deeply impacts our emotional and mental well-being. When it becomes dysregulated, often due to chronic stress, trauma, or early life experiences, we can feel overwhelmed, anxious, or emotionally stuck. Psychosomatic therapy helps you understand and work with your nervous system, using tools like breathwork, mindfulness, and vagus nerve regulation techniques. I’m trained in Polyvagal Theory, which explores how our nervous system responds to stress and connection, shaping our emotions and behaviors. I’m also a Certified Breathwork Coach and incorporate holistic practices to support your healing and better mind-body-gut connections. Together, we’ll work toward restoring balance in your body and greater ease in your life. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c6de957af4683ee60ea6ca6/3dc8fafc-45c0-4375-90a8-afbc2a1d4dd7/andrew-small-xrwkFUVsbfk-unsplash.jpg What I Treat - Addiction Addictive behavior is any behavior that we are likely to repeat because it has been followed by a reward experience - compulsive shopping, gambling, pornography, sex, compulsions around eating, etc. Some cues that you may be experiencing addictive thinking and behavior: unsuccessful pacts with yourself to quit, doing more of a behavior than is intended, cue-triggered responses, loss of control, and affect on your daily functioning. My background and the beginnings of my therapeutic work was in the addiction field, and some of my most rewarding experiences as a therapist have been witnessing the healing journey toward recovery. Whether you are on a journey toward sobriety or harm-reduction, I can be a guide for you in understanding and healing your addiction. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c6de957af4683ee60ea6ca6/f813df72-bd36-4357-8982-5c5b82c413c7/andrew-small--_Hjt2Tn_uQ-unsplash.jpg What I Treat - Mood Disorders Mood Disorders are disorders characterized by persistent changes in mood, including Major Depressive Disorder, Bipolar Disorders, and Cyclothymic Disorder. Sometimes life throws us a curve ball: career change, divorce, breakup, geographical change, empty nesting, an accident, etc. Whether it was expected or unexpected, life changes can be quite distressing and cause changes to your mood. Sometimes, nothing has happened at all, and the chemistry in your brain begins to change, altering your mood. Together we will focus on your changing moods, and help you to stabilize so you can work toward living your most fulfilling life. ** Disclaimer - I do not see clients in my private practice who are currently struggling with chronic, unrelenting Depressive Disorders and suicidal ideation** https://www.therapywithab.com/about daily 0.75 2025-11-14 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c6de957af4683ee60ea6ca6/1750251062258-QWRQODFQ2V1J1T9T7T1W/DSC_0406.jpg About - About Me (Professionally) I’m glad you’re here. I’m Alana, a relational and trauma-informed therapist dedicated to helping people heal from painful relationship patterns and reconnect with themselves and others in meaningful ways. My path to this work began at Columbia University’s Teachers College, where I earned dual master’s degrees in Psychological Counseling. Early in my career, I worked in substance abuse clinics, where I witnessed not only the impact of addiction, but also the emotional toll it takes on families and relationships. These experiences deepened my commitment to helping people untangle the complex relational dynamics that keep them stuck and guide them toward greater peace and clarity. In my private practice, I offer weekly one-on-one & couples therapy as a space to slow down, reflect, and make sense of your inner world at your own pace. Together, we create a personalized approach that meets your unique needs and goals. My style is relational, emotionally attuned, and trauma-informed - anchored in genuine collaboration and care. I specialize in working with individuals and couples healing from complicated or disruptive relationship patterns, including toxic and codependent relationships, narcissistic abuse, and challenging family of origin or marital dynamics. I believe that your relationships should be the place you come home to, not the thing you worry most about. I am trained in and have a tremendous working knowledge of multiple evidence-based approaches including DBT, EFT for individuals and couples, CBT, Polyvagal Theory, and psychodynamic therapy. I am committed to continual learning and staying current with evidence-based approaches to ensure my clients receive the highest level of care possible. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c6de957af4683ee60ea6ca6/e90e58e9-37a0-4e4a-a4ab-86c810a98fc6/DSC_0453.jpg About - About Me (Personally) Outside of being a therapist, I am a born and raised New Yorker who understands and respects the NYC hustle. Beyond that, I deeply understand and respect the need for self-care in this bustling city. For me, therapy has been a life-shifting experience, along with other self-care practices I enjoy. I enjoy exercise, breath-work, grounding in nature, and spending time with animals. In my spare time, you can find me in the dog park with my rescue pup, Mabel, eating at new restaurants in NYC, practicing breathwork, and spending quality time with friends and family. Additionally, breath work has changed my life. Through daily practice of coherent breathing I have worked toward healing my own gut-related illness. Throughout my breath-work journey, I have healed daily brain fog, exhaustion, sluggishness, and mood instability. I will incorporate mind-body, spiritual, meditative, and breath-work practices into our therapeutic work and share the most beneficial practices I’ve learned on my own healing journey. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c6de957af4683ee60ea6ca6/20151648-18bd-4f28-90f2-7fbf7e553982/birgith-roosipuu--zLsm1cV2Ss-unsplash.jpg About - Therapy With an Expert in Relational Dynamics & Relationship Trauma. • Reclaim yourself & your empowerment. • Get to know yourself again. • Build relationships that are meaningful & real. • Experience safe & secure relationships. • Rebuild your self-esteem. • Build healthy & resilient boundaries. • Bring back peace & balance into your life. • Re-learn how to follow your intuition. • Learn to regulate your nervous system. https://www.therapywithab.com/contact daily 0.75 2025-10-13 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c6de957af4683ee60ea6ca6/1689352751768-76N28V28V6L60XE8A0K0/samantha-gades-BlIhVfXbi9s-unsplash.jpg Let's Connect I offer complimentary 15 minute consultations for us to get to know each other and see if we are the right fit for one another Email me at: alana@therapywithab.com or send me a message below.

Through this approach my goal is to help you and your partner feel safer, more understood, and more connected in your relationship. Couples often come in feeling stuck in painful patterns - having the same arguments, feeling alone even when they're together, or unsure how to bridge the growing distance. Through Couples Therapy and Marriage Counseling, many couples begin to experience each other differently. They find space to slow down, express what’s really going on underneath the surface, and respond to each other in ways that feel more open and emotionally responsive. This type of therapy is not about reaching perfection in your relationship, but feeling closer even during difficult moments. • Address Specific Issues • Enhanced Understanding • Resolve Conflict • Strengthened Emotional Connection • Rebuild Trust • Improve your communication • Prevent Future Problems • Renew Commitment This approach helps couples not just repair, but strengthen their bond in lasting ways. If you're longing for more closeness, clarity, or trust in your relationship, you're not alone and there is a way forward.
