Getting to know Muriel Hunt
Muriel believes in the multifaceted nature of each client’s journey and provides a warm, safe, and trusting environment where clients feel valued as well as heard. She will walk with you as you explore emotions and life challenges that may be impacting your sense of well-being and your ability to navigate life in the best way possible. Muriel is aware that clients enter therapy with many unrealized strengths, and in your sessions with her, you will be provided the space to discover inner strengths that may be untapped. She tailors interventions to assist each client, couple, or family in a way that allows them to enhance their lives, relationships, and overall experiences in whatever aspect of life they wish to improve.
With a foundation in Psychodynamic, Cognitive, and Mindfulness theories, Muriel’s approach is integrative and always framed within a multicultural context. She has experience working with clients from ages 4 through 60-plus years young. Muriel is a trained EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) therapist, which she utilizes with clients, at their request, to help reprocess and integrate traumatic life experiences that may be preventing clients from thriving in certain aspects of life. She draws from evidence-based practices and tailors interventions to best meet the individual needs of each client, working collaboratively to help clients learn new skills, strategies, and methods of coping.
Muriel holds a Master’s in Counseling for Mental Health and Wellness from New York University. She is dedicated to empowering her clients with tools to face their daily challenges optimistically and will cheerfully support you on your journey toward actualizing a more balanced and fulfilling life.

The sessions I had really helped me to take back control of my life and my emotions. I am a better person and continue to improve thanks to muriels help, insight, and advice.

I’ve been thinking of restarting therapy for a while and felt overwhelmed by all the options out there but after reading the reviews here, I decided to trust my gut and went ahead to book a session and I wasn’t disappointed. I absolutely love the therapist I was assigned to. They listen, they don’t judge me at all and I feel free to come as I am and work on my “issues” - I can already tell the therapy is helping me so much. I cannot recommend this practice enough, thank you!

Muriel is an incredible therapist with knowledge of many different modalities and tools. She’s warm, understanding and insightful. I can say without hesitation that she has helped me get at the core of my issues (childhood trauma, traumatic experiences as a young adult) more than any other therapist.
