Getting to know Hillary Geffner

Life’s challenges can strain relationships and leave you feeling overwhelmed. Whether you’re facing stress, burnout, major transitions like breakups, parenthood, work pressures, or illness, you don’t have to go through it alone. I specialize in working with people navigating relationship issues, anxiety, life transitions, family conflict, depression, grief, and trauma. Together, we’ll explore your experiences, build self-awareness, and create the meaningful changes you are looking for. I can help you develop the necessary tools to enhance self-worth, improve relationships, slow down reactivity, strengthen your emotional resilience, and break unhelpful patterns. I take an integrative approach to therapy, blending behavioral, relational, and mindfulness-based strategies to meet your unique needs. You can expect a hands-on, client-tailored approach. My goal is to guide and empower you to achieve your personal goals and create a life filled with meaning and fulfillment. I hold a Master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Long Island University Brooklyn and earned my Bachelor’s degree from Syracuse University.

What should a new client know about working with you?

I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in New York and New Jersey. I have extensive experience working with couples, individuals, and families, and I am a certified Clinical Trauma Professional. I am also certified in pre-marital counseling. I specialize in offering treatment that meets you where you are. I don't believe in one-size-fits-all treatment; after meeting and evaluating your needs, goals, and preferences, I will employ several treatment approaches to get you to the desired change. Through curiosity and active engagement, I help individuals and couples explore and transform patterns that may hold them back from living authentically and fully. Together, we’ll identify changes to bring relief and foster renewed hope.
