Couples Therapy: Exploring Connection Counseling in NYC and Long Island
                     Therapy to help you thrive in your 
relationships
Welcome!
I’m Erica! A couples therapist whose 
goal is to work with you to create a 
safe, connected and truly intimate 
relationship. How? Together we’ll learn 
what it means to be truly vulnerable 
with each other and develop trust in 
sharing those vulnerabilities. 
More about me? I’m a first generation 
Dominican who loves rom-cons 
(surprise, surprise), traveling (beaches 
are my happy place), and blasting my 
90s bachatas (they’re hard not to love).
I love this work, truly and I’m excited to 
work together.
COUPLES THERAPY
It can feel like you’re in a relationship with a different partner or someone that you 
don’t even know anymore. The arguments seem to happen more frequently and feel 
more intense. This leads to resentment and anger, which only continues the 
argumentative cycle. Being in this place as a couple can feel hopeless and hurtful. If 
this sounds familiar, you’re not alone.
It’s so common for couples to get into a dance of disconnection. What starts out 
feeling like the honeymoon stage of laughter and overwhelming love, suddenly 
morphs into resentment, eye-rolling, and annoyances. Why does our loving 
relationship now feel like it’s distant and forced?
Most couples will go through this cycle of things changing from bliss and constant 
PDA to more mundane and misunderstandings. It’s completely normal! The problem 
comes in when partners aren’t able to move past this stage (that’s where finding a 
couples therapist comes in handy). Do you want a deeply trusting and safe 
partnership? With couples therapy, it’s absolutely possible.
INDIVIDUAL THERAPY
It can be difficult presenting having it all together to everyone else, but secretly struggling with 
self-doubt and not feeling good enough. This doubt creates a persona of a ‘people pleaser’ who 
consistently quiets their wants and needs to cater to everyone else’s. The idea of “earning” 
others’ affection and love is something that is familiar to you. You’re self-aware enough to 
recognize that this is not the way you want to continue living life, but feel stuck in how to move 
forward. This leads to frustration and resentment, which can show up in anger and defensiveness. 
Is this resonating with you?
I’m here for you. I want to help you redefine and reconnect with yourself. Together, we’ll create a 
safe space where we unpack and unlearn those years of conditioning that said you weren’t 
enough. We’ll create a trusting relationship where it’s safe to be your true authentic self.
I want to help you tap into your power, to rise to your potential and empower you to trust yourself 
enough to show up as your best and authentic self, whatever that may look like.
This work will be difficult and painful at times, but it is absolutely worth it to live a life that you 
chose. I come into this experience not having all the answers, but rather as a collaborator, who 
listens and honors you in your journey, wherever that may be and whatever that looks like. It’s 
time to put yourself first, take the first step. I look forward to starting this journey together.
WE WOULD LOVE TO HEAR FROM 
YOU!
