Where is the office located?2021-06-14T14:52:29+00:00

The physical address for Harbor Counseling is 522 N State Rd #201, Briarcliff Manor, NY 10510.  The office is located in central Westchester County and easily accessible from the Taconic State and Saw Mill Parkways.

The office is on the second floor and the entrance is in the front of the building.

Will my partner and I always attend counseling sessions together?2021-06-21T14:43:58+00:00

No. I find that the best way to help partners improve their relationships is through a combination of individual and couples sessions. Individually, I will help you and your partner focus on the changes that you each need to make. During couples sessions, I will assist you in putting these changes into practice.

What are the most common problems of couples?2021-06-21T14:45:33+00:00

Problems with couples span a wide variety of issues.  Infidelity is a common one, but I am seeing more couples over the past few years come in where the relationship is simply not aligned or as well connected as in years past, where couples may be growing apart. COVID has certainly led to couples reevaluating their relationship, and since we are now out and about again, this is certainly the time to address the issues that have come to the forefront.

Other common problems: frequent arguments, communication problems, sexual problems, jealousy, lack of respect, spending too much time working, etc.

What are some of the benefits of good quality therapy?2021-06-26T03:06:22+00:00

• Greater self-esteem
• Improved interpersonal relationships
• Alleviation of depression and anxiety
• More positive, hopeful thinking
• Greater intimacy
• Less stress
• Balance between work and personal life
• Greater ability to cope with life’s problems
• Connectedness
