Therapists offering in-person sessions in Manhattan, NYC

We’d love to meet with you in-person and understand you may prefer your sessions offline. Our team can schedule in-person therapy sessions with you at our Fifth Ave offices in Midtown, conveniently located by multiple train lines and Grand Central station.

The advantages of in-person therapy

Yes, there are some advantages to meeting with your therapist at their office we encourage you to think about.

  • You may feel more present, focused, or connected with your therapist meeting in-person

  • It can be hard to find a private or quiet space to have therapy at home

  • If you’re on a computer a lot during the day, the thought of another video call may feel unappealing

  • A dedicated physical space for your wellbeing can be a helpful boundary

  • The habit of going to your therapist’s office can be a welcome routine or break from your week

  • Learning or practicing new skills can be easier with your therapist in the room to guide you

Sometimes you might be discussing something particularly tough where your therapist’s physical and encouraging presence makes a big difference. For some, being able to open up or express their feelings is more natural face-to-face, and strengthens a sense of being seen and understood. We encourage you to pay attention to what you need to be yourself, share openly, and get the most out of meeting with your therapist.

In-Person Therapy at Manhattan Therapy Collective

If you’re interested in meeting in-person for therapy (or want to try it out), let your therapist know.

Do you offer in-person sessions on a temporary basis?

Sometimes. As a team, we are dedicated to providing you the highest level of care to support your mental health. If teletherapy doesn’t allow your therapist to work effectively with you, or there are therapy approaches or skills best implemented in-person, your therapist may recommend that you schedule sessions at our offices temporarily so they can continue offering you their best.

Is in-person therapy better than teletherapy?

We believe that in-person and online therapy sessions can be equally as effective, but it depends on what ultimately works best for you. Our team of NY psychologists offer both. There are advantages to each option. As your therapist, we want whatever choice promotes a helpful, genuine, and truly supportive experience of your sessions.
