I saw firsthand that end of our lives, the thing that matters most is our relationships.

I realized that real, lasting change actually happens on the micro level, not the macro. This insight led me to pivot towards enacting positive change in individual lives through social work.

My first career step was working in hospitals, where I had the profound honor of being with many people at the end of their lives. This experience was clarifying.

Trust is not something to blindly give. It's earned.

I’m dedicated to earning your trust at a pace that feels right.  That means I show up as myself and guide you with empirically supported psychotherapy techniques. Instead of “just listening,” I’m an active partner who helps you establish and reach your goals.

And hopefully, sharing a piece of my story can help us start to lay that foundation of trust...

Hi, I’m Genny Finkel! 

LICENSED THERAPIST IN NYC; SERVING NY, CT, & FL RESIDENTS

My ultimate goal is to save my clients a lifetime of regret by helping them make the most of the time they have with the people who matter most. 

So I pursued additional training, completing a post-master's certification program in couples and family therapy at the prestigious Ackerman Institute.

Today, I continue this relationships-oriented work in my private practice. I help individuals, couples, and adult families repair bonds and reconnect with each other.

I felt compelled to help people repair and strengthen their relationships, both romantic and familial.
