Richard Collie

Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LCSW-R

I am an LCSW-R who has institute training in both trauma and group psychotherapy. I have been in practice since 2006 and work with individuals, couples, and groups. I specialize in trauma and addiction, and much of my work has been with clients in under-resourced communities, firefighters, military personnel, survivors of interpersonal trauma, and LGBTQ clients. I am certified in EMDR, and am informed by somatic work, IFS, and Presence Psychotherapy. My technique, when working with couples, lies somewhere between RLT, EFT, and Imago. Above all, I believe the therapeutic relationship is central to growth and healing. I have a new group for individuals over the age of thirty, and a BIPOC group that began in June of 2020. I see clients both online and in person at 12 West 9th Street in Greenwich Village, NY. My fee is $250 and I have a sliding scale based on income.

Jill Kaiser

Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LCSW

I am a psychotherapist in practice for 20+ years who sees therapy as a place to find support, insight and guidance to make meaningful life changes. My style is warm, engaging, interactive and collaborative --I strive to offer a non-judgmental place to explore feelings and thoughts as well as to identify unhelpful patterns and behaviors. I believe that everyone takes this process at their own pace and moving forward can often happen in small steps. I combine a traditional psychodynamic approach with cognitive-behavioral and mindfulness techniques tailored to the needs of each client.

I enjoy working with women’s issues, particularly those experiencing depression, anxiety, grief/loss, life transitions, workplace stress, balancing work/family, relationship and parenting issues.

Together we can set attainable goals, explore new ways to cope, and work towards feeling more resilient.

Gary Katz

Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LCSW, , CSAT, EMDR

I am the founder of The Center for Intimacy Recovery which focuses primarily on intimacy and relationships. What I have found is that without a sense of intimacy with oneself, people can’t fully experience intimacy with someone else. Our hearts are fragile, so we develop strategies to keep them safe and avoid getting hurt. Often, these strategies later become maladaptive and hold us back from achieving the connection and intimacy we are actually seeking. The Center for Intimacy Recovery helps clients to find ways to have the intimacy and connection in life that they are seeking. To gain a better understanding around healthy sexuality and treatment for compulsive and destructive sexual behaviors and the trauma created through intimate betrayal, have studied at the Modern Sex Therapy Institute where I have studied healthy sexuality. I have also studied with the International Institute of Trauma and Addiction Professionals where I became a Certified Sex Addiction Therapist.
