You may have tried therapy, medication, or both and still feel caught in familiar patterns. Living with depression, anxiety, trauma, or addiction can be exhausting, especially when previous treatment has not brought the relief you hoped for. I offer a compassionate, collaborative space to understand what is keeping you stuck and explore a more personalized path forward. I am Michael Glaz, a New York-licensed mental health counselor and founder of MG Counseling Group. I work with teens and adults, including people facing complex trauma, posttraumatic stress (PTSD), and treatment-resistant depression. Together, we look at your history, your goals, and what has or has not helped before. My approach integrates eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), internal family systems (IFS), psychodynamic therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and body-based methods. I also offer ketamine-assisted psychotherapy (KAP) when appropriate. Our work can help you understand persistent emotional and relationship patterns, process painful experiences, and develop practical ways to respond differently. We will shape the process together, with attention to your needs and pace. I offer individual and couples therapy in Manhattan and Woodmere, along with online sessions throughout New York. You are welcome to schedule a free 15-minute consultation to discuss what you are looking for and whether we would be a good fit.

In-person evening or weekend therapy available in Scarsdale, White Plains, and Mahopac. I help couples and adults work through relationship conflict, emotional distance, sexual concerns, anxiety, depression, trauma, posttraumatic stress (PTSD), alcohol-related concerns, men’s issues, and patterns that keep repeating. Some people come in with a partner. Others come in alone because mood, drinking, trauma, anger, avoidance, or relationship stress is affecting the life they want. My work is practical, direct, and focused on understanding what gets stuck, so we can work on what needs to change.

Adult and Adolescent Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner I am a board-certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) and have been treating mental health conditions since 2023. I earned my PMHNP degree at National University in San Diego, California, and I serve people in San Diego, CA. I’m comfortable treating a range of psychiatric concerns across the lifespan. My passion is supporting people with personality-related challenges, anxiety, and depression. I believe it takes compassionate listening to find the right treatment, and each person’s journey is unique. I use a person-centered psychiatric approach so you feel heard and understood.

I am a licensed psychotherapist in private practice with nearly 20 years of clinical experience providing therapy for adults and couples throughout New York State. I work with individuals who often appear highly capable and successful on the outside, yet privately struggle with anxiety and mood difficulties, emotional overwhelm, trauma, relationship difficulties, burnout, chronic stress, or a persistent sense of feeling stuck, despite insight and previous therapy. Many of the people I work with are accustomed to functioning at a high level in their personal or professional lives. They may understand their patterns intellectually, yet continue to experience the same emotional reactions, relationship dynamics, or internal struggles that seem resistant to change. Therapy can become most valuable when understanding alone is no longer enough. My approach is integrative, trauma-informed, and grounded in current neuroscience, recognizing that emotional difficulties are often held not only in thoughts, but also in the nervous system, relationships, and lived experience. Rather than applying a single method to every person, treatment is individualized and may draw from psychodynamic therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), Internal Family Systems (IFS), somatic approaches, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and nervous system regulation strategies. I believe meaningful therapy extends beyond symptom reduction. While many people seek relief from anxiety, depression, trauma symptoms, or relationship conflict, my goal is to help create deeper and more enduring change, greater self-understanding, improved relationships, increased emotional resilience, and a stronger connection to yourself. I also work with couples seeking relationship therapy around communication difficulties, recurring conflict, betrayal and trust concerns, life transitions, and relational patterns that create distance or disconnection. I offer online therapy throughout New York State and provide both short-term focused work and longer-term psychotherapy, depending on your needs. Beginning therapy can feel vulnerable, but it can also be the start of meaningful and lasting change.

I have specific expertise working with couples as well as individuals navigating difficult relationships. I particularly enjoy working with high-achieving professionals, over-thinkers, new moms and dads, and cycle-breakers. I am an active therapist, meaning that I will ask questions and point out patterns to help you get to the root of what really brought you into therapy. I am a warm but direct straight shooter who values transparency and I use humor, intuition, and spontaneity in my work. My aim is not to tell you what to do, but rather to help you listen to your own inner wisdom.

I work with adults who are high-functioning on the outside but experiencing anxiety, stress, depression or emotional exhaustion internally, particularly when these patterns begin to interfere with work, relationships, or overall well-being. Many clients come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unable to find lasting balance despite their efforts. After 35 years as a therapist, I bring an integrated understanding of biological and psychosocial factors that influence emotional well-being. My approach is steady, collaborative, and focused on helping clients create meaningful and sustainable change. Support, exploration, learning new skills, and making connections are the essentials for moving forward toward a more balanced life. While in treatment, we will explore modalities that may include cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), interpersonal therapy, psychodynamic therapy, mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT), emotion-focused therapy (EFT), holistic approaches, and the expressive therapies. Opportunities to explore creative outlets and the bodymind techniques.

I honor each individual's unique characteristics and strengths. In that spirit, I tailor my methods to the unique needs of the client - utilizing cognitive behavior therapy, psychodynamic, and humanistic modes. I am warm, encouraging and a strong motivator. My extensive background as a psychiatric social worker helps me to advocate for my clients and has provided me with special skills and life experiences that I bring to my psychotherapy practice.

Welcome! I work with clients who struggle with the psychological, emotional, and physical consequences of past and or ongoing trauma, as they try to avoid repeating personal and professional mistakes that only worsen their experiences. If these challenges sound familiar, I can help you process your trauma in a supportive, validating environment, that is empowering and ultimately freeing.
