In each case, I've been impressed by the quality and consistency of her work. I am selective about where I refer patients, and have felt consistently confident entrusting individuals and couples to Laura's care. Laura is a highly skilled couples therapist, family therapist, and individual therapist in New York City, with particular strength in working with relationship dynamics, communication issues, and complex family systems. Patients I've referred to her have reported meaningful progress, especially in the areas of couples therapy and relationship counseling. She brings a thoughtful, structured, and effective approach to her work. I feel confident recommending her to individuals, couples, and families seeking high-quality therapy with an experienced LCSW in NYC.

A second marriage for both us, we engaged Laura, prior to our wedding not due to any acute crisis but to become more mindful of our own histories and how these might impact the relationship. One of the many insights gained working with Laura over the years is that each partner is responsible for 100% of their 50% of the relationship (LOVE that!!). We were also familiar with the book, Getting the Love Your Want by Harville Hendrix and Helen LaKelly Hunt, best known for co-creating Imago Relationship Therapy. Laura is a certified practitioner of Imago, blending it with her unique style of facilitation. Imago offers many relationship building blocks, such as mirroring and sharing appreciations that fundamentally changed how we communicate. In many ways, Laura is like a relationship coach, holding us accountable for our respective 100% that we each bring to the relationship. Our marriage continues to thrive and benefit from our time and investment with Laura!

The professionalism and level of therapy I have received has been nothing but above and beyond my expectations. If you're looking to make changes in your life and are open to mental health services, this is the place to go to.

This place has gone downhill. They now require 48 hours notice to cancel or reschedule an…read moreappointment, but, when I spoke with the receptionist, Rosemary Pope, on the phone, she told me that the text alert I received went out 42 hours before my session. So even before my reminder, I was too late to reschedule. I then learned that she had said I cursed on the phone to her, which I never did and never would do. Of course I was upset and angry at their new policies and how the text reminders come *after* the time window to cancel/reschedule, but for someone working a mere front desk position to say that I cursed at her--when this never happened--is just ludicrous. In addition, they now require a card on file to bill. I'm fine with that, although who wants their card on file and who trusts any company with this information, especially if it's a debit card? Still, they're supposed to auto-bill you after each session, and my card has been on file with them since they began this policy. Yet I still have an outstanding balance as they "forget" to bill you and now have a third-party billing office that handles this. When I called the billing office, they said that Nutley Family was "too new" of a client for them to know what I owed, and Tyler was helpful but condescending when I spoke with her to try to clear this up. I would suggest you go elsewhere. People come here in times of need. The staff who work here don't seem to realize this at all. This is a disgrace to mental health clinics. The clinicians I have had have been nice, but nothing to write home about: the best one I had, sadly retired from this practice to start a private practice which I cannot afford... I wonder why.

But people enter these professions for different reasons, and having seen my share of truly crazy (no non-PC pun intended) therapists, Dr. Michelson is a diamond in the rough. She is truly patient-centered - no talking down, no dismissive advice - talking to her is like having a conversation with a trusted friend who really cares about your well-being. So while she is supportive, she will do the right thing and push you to think about areas of your life differently. She focuses on teaching skills in a way that anyone can understand and apply to his/her own life. Add a doctoral training and Dr. Michelson is someone that I trust to not just be a good therapist but a good DOCTOR. I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone I know.

HORRIBLE- HORRIBLE- HORRIBLE!…read more From the owner to the so called manager of Recruitment. Never experienced anything so unprofessional before in my life (now I have seen it all). The owner called me and ended our conversation by saying they are calling me and never called back to end our session properly. Appointments were made that were never kept and even emails received confirming information that was never followed up on (what the heck). I was okay not building a permanent relationship there, I guess the owner didn't know that. I was doing my best to remain professional about it. Consulting was all I was willing to do. The way things start gives you a good idea of how it goes. RUN FAST!

The person they call their "psychiatrist" on the other hand is awful (Dr. Wancier). The first time I met him, he made an obscene amount of comments about my weight. "This isn't good for your self image" "You need to stop eating chocolates and tarts" "Your medications will never work if you are this heavy" And so many more comments... I explained to him with tears rolling down my face that I am trying...and that my weight is something I have struggled with all my life. He continued to dig but I thought he got the point that this was no longer something I wished to discuss. I came back for 2 more appointments and the last time was the final straw. He just wouldn't stop talking about my weight! I was beyond upset, especially after telling him I had lost 25 pounds. He told me "I'm glad I said something to you before or you wouldn't have lost that weight" I told him he wasn't my primary care provider and that I was here for my mental health. He still didn't understand as I was in tears yet again. I will not be back to him and I suggest if you are overweight, you don't see him either.
