Manhattan Marriage and Family Therapy, PLLC specializes in helping individuals, couples, and families improve communication, emotional well being, and life balance. First, the therapists work with clients to explore the problem statement that led them to therapy. Sometimes the problem centers around understanding and coping with feelings and emotions while other times it is about changing cognitive distortions that lead the way they live life and relate with others. Distorted thinking and lack of awareness of emotions are progressive and will often lead to bigger problems. This is how people fall into addictions, explosive anger outbursts, performance problems at work, and more. An individual's quality of life suffers until one forgets how to be happy and fulfilled. Once the problem and its sequence is identified, the therapist will work with the client(s) on finding new ways to understand and cope with feelings and change thinking patterns. With couples and families the goal is to find the process/dance/patterns of interaction that has become so toxic. Change occurs through a variety of ways depending on the client's individual needs, goals, and time frame for therapy.
