Rising Roots Therapy
Marriage & Family Therapy
We help individuals, couples, and families with a personalized approach that draws from CBT, ACT, EFT, and the Gottman Method.
Together, we focus on practical tools and deeper insight to create lasting change. Our goal is to provide a safe, supportive space where you can heal, grow, and build stronger connections.
Available online only for New York state residents.
Our Approach
We work with individuals, couples, and families who feel weighed down by anxiety, sadness, or deep relationship gridlock. My clients often share a desire for greater connection, internal peace, and emotional balance. In a safe, non-judgmental space, we explore the specific patterns and beliefs—both individual and systemic—that are interfering with your goals.
We will collaborate to build effective, powerful tools to improve communication, enhance coping strategies, and foster healthy growth.

We will verify your benefits online before your session, so you can be sure what your copay and out-of-pocket expenses will be.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
"I've been seeing John for about 2 years now, and I couldn't be happier with the progress we've made together. His warm and empathetic attitude has always made me feel at ease. He actively listens without judgement and holds me accountable to my values. Through our sessions, along the strategies and tools to help manage my anxiety, I have experienced significant personal growth and grateful for John's expertise and support. I have recommended him to other members in my family, and would recommend him to anyone looking for a compassionate and professional therapist"

John is truly great at and passionate about what he does. He is a wonderful, empathetic listener. In combination with his knowledge of the Gottman method, he is a fantastic family therapist. No session feels wasted. If things are going well, we even look to the future to work on issues in a way that feels proactive. Highly recommend
