Getting to know Prestasia Cohen

***At the moment this therapist is not accepting medicaid insurance. Please see accepted insurance as well as out of pocket fees below*** A Supportive Partner on Your Path to Healing and Growth. As a Marriage and Family Therapist, I offer a compassionate space for individuals, adolescents, couples, and families navigating life’s many challenges — whether it’s anxiety, depression, postpartum transitions, relationship stress, parenting concerns, or major life changes.

What should a new client know about working with you?

My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in creating a safe, nonjudgmental environment where you can feel truly seen and heard. Together, we’ll work toward building a more balanced, meaningful, and fulfilling life. I have a special passion for working with couples at all stages of their relationship — whether you’re looking to deepen your connection, improve communication, heal from betrayal, or navigate life transitions together. Using evidence-based approaches such as the Gottman Method and Imago Therapy, I help couples foster mutual understanding, rebuild trust, and create stronger, more resilient partnerships.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

Drawing from Gottman Method, Imago, Narrative Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, and other modalities, I tailor each session to meet your unique needs and goals. Whether you're a teen exploring your identity, an individual managing stress or uncertainty, a couple working to reconnect, or a parent seeking deeper family harmony, I’m here to walk alongside you with empathy and insight. You don’t have to navigate this journey alone. Together, we can foster greater self-awareness, strengthen relationships, and support your growth toward lasting well-being.
