Individual Psychotherapy in Manhattan
Focused on real, human-centered care
Relational, personalized therapy for adults navigating overwhelming emotions, relationship challenges, and life transitions.
Our Approach
Authentic connection, individualized care
We believe that the relationship between therapist and client is central to meaningful therapy. Our approach is relational and integrative, recognizing that each person brings their own experiences, emotions, and patterns into the therapy room.
Rather than being passive listeners, we show up as genuine, engaged humans. We draw from different therapeutic approaches to meet your individual needs, creating a collaborative space where you can feel understood, explore your experiences more deeply, and work toward meaningful change.
Meet the Founder
Courtney Cohen, LMHC
I'm the founder of Authentic Healing Psychotherapy, where I work with adults navigating overwhelming emotions, relationship challenges, and patterns that can be difficult to understand or change.
I believe meaningful therapy begins with genuine connection. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and engaged, with a focus on understanding the experiences that have shaped us and how they influence our relationships with ourselves and others. I'm particularly interested in helping people develop a more compassionate relationship with their emotions and the different parts of themselves.
In person and virtual therapy sessions, meeting you right where you are.
Our Services
Therapy for Young Adults
Adjusting to life as a young adult can feel overwhelming, with transitions and big questions about who you are and what you want. In therapy, we create space to pause, reflect, and reconnect, supporting insight and practical tools to navigate these formative years with clarity and confidence.
Anxiety Therapy
Anxiety can make your thoughts feel overwhelming and your body tense, pulling you away from the present. Therapy offers a space to notice the parts of yourself that show up with anxiety, understand their messages, and support both insight and relief in the body.
Therapy for Women’s Issues
Therapy offers a space where your experiences are truly seen and valued, helping you connect with your inner strength and authentic voice. We work with women navigating challenges like anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship struggles, and the pressures that often come with career, romantic relationships, and reproductive health.
Trauma Therapy
Trauma can leave the past feeling present in your daily life. In therapy, we explore the parts of yourself that were affected and how they show up now, while also supporting the mind and body through gentle experiential approaches, including EMDR and Internal Family Systems (IFS).
Therapy for Relationships & Attachment
Relationships shape how we see ourselves and show up in the world. In therapy, we explore your patterns and emotional responses while supporting new ways to connect and communicate more fully. We specialize in helping young adults break people pleasing patterns and build stronger identities.
Therapy for Highly Sensitive People
Being highly sensitive means experiencing the world, and your emotions, deeply. In therapy, we create a safe space to explore these feelings, helping you feel more grounded while cultivating self-acceptance, compassion, and confidence in your emotional experiences.
