NEW YORK, NY -- Dr. Michael DeMarco, founder of Mental Health Counseling & Marriage and Family Therapy of New York at www.mytherapist.info, one of the largest private practices in New York City, unveiled plans of expanding counseling and therapy services offered by his therapists with the opening of a new office location in the Bushwick area of Brooklyn.
The new additional office continues to ensure the practice's philosophy of offering modern, inexpensive psychotherapy based upon the latest research in family counseling, couples counseling, sex therapy, psychotherapy, depression treatment, anxiety treatment, gender identity, career counseling and human sexuality. As always, Mental Health Counseling & Marriage and Family Therapy of New York is able to supervise pre-licensed therapists and graduate clinicians who are able to gain valuable experience while offer psychotherapy at a lower rate than other therapists in New York.
Dr. DeMarco said by offering affordable therapy in New York, he and his staff of psychotherapists aim to help rebuild intimate connections and strengthen relationships by helping to develop the skills and tools to overcome life challenges. Therapy groups are offered for anger management, non-traditional relationships (open relationships, poly-amorous, kink), stress management and relaxation, gender and sexual identity, and coping with divorce.
A special note to LGBT youth: " I suffered through bullying and didn't feel comfortable talking to anyone about it out of fear that nothing would be done, or the bullying would turn to violence. This made for a torturous middle and high school experience. Now I'm a therapist, and work with people struggling with coming out at all ages, as well as the countless other issues LGBT people struggle with daily. Anything can be talked out. Even though it may seem like no one cares, there are people out there who do care, who love you just for being you and who want to see you grow and succeed, wherever you live- there are places you can go and people there to help.
'Pain is inevitable. Suffering is optional.'"
Dr. Michael DeMarco and his staff of mental health counselors and marriage and family therapists differ from other therapists in New York by offering therapy on a sliding scale, making counseling affordable for everyone. Therapy sessions are offered by appointment 7 days a week in offices in Manhattan and Brooklyn.
