Getting to know Muriel Nakash

The decision to go to therapy can often be a difficult one. My goal is to provide you with a judgment-free zone and empathy to support you on your journey. I use a multidimensional approach to individualize treatment just for you! I work with an array of different issues and struggles; however, I have more experience in depression, anxiety, life transitions/changes, self-esteem, dating, and relationships. I am currently pursuing certification at the Gottman Institute in couples counseling. I hold a Master's in Mental Health Counseling from the City University of New York, Brooklyn College. *Does not accept insurance.*

    Muriel is kind, patient and understanding. I feel a sense of comfort when talking to her and find her sessions helpful and productive.
    Muriel is an extremely compassionate and effective therapist. She is patient, considerate, and helps brainstorm great strategies to manage my anxiety. Can’t recommend her enough!
    I grew in so many ways after therapy with Muriel. I was able to overcome many family challenges. I learned so much about myself and how to respond to emotionally challenging situations. My relationship with my wife improved significantly. We were able to connect on a richer level. All thanks to Muriel Nakash. I truly appreciate everything you did you for me. I know that what I learned will last a lifetime. Thank you so much!!!!
    This review is coming after my first visit with Muriel. I’m new to therapy, but it was a good visit. She’s a great listener and even in the first session was able to assist me in analyzing some stuff that I’ve been unsure about. Communication was through video call and it was quick to setup!

    Mrs. Nakash helped me so much! From my first visit she was able to just “get me” and understand what I am going through. She also helped me realize how I process my past experiences and how to process it in a healthier more positive way. We worked on my past relationships, my childhood and my marriage. She is also a couples therapist and I’m excited to bring my partner as well to help us understand ourselves a bit better. Telemedicine worked out nicely and I don’t feel like it was weird at all. I like how Mrs. Nakash is very flexible with timing so I either see her after work and sometimes during my lunch break. She also is available for same day emergency appointments which she helped me significantly when I had a panic attack. I am so grateful to have her.m and recommend her to everyone.
    I’ve never felt more relieved I really feel like a lot of burden has been lifted off my shoulders. After every appointment I feel like my mental health has been improving for the better. I don’t suffer from mental illness but I do believe strongly that when talking to someone unbiased about your life and goals it helps put ur mind in the right direction. Speaking to ms. Nakash has truly been and eye opening experience. I recommend using her wether u suffer from any mental illness or not!
    I was so happy I was referred to Muriel. She was highly recommended and sought after. She is able to understand all my emotions and help me in many ways. Muriel is able to pinpoint on how I was thinking and guide me on the right path. so glad I went!
    I am not one to leave reviews, but Muriel was truly one of the best I've worked with, which is why I feel compelled to write a review. She was extremely helpful in her advice, sympathy, and understanding of myself. More than that, her intuition was on point from the very first session we had. She made me see and understand so much about myself that I never knew.. I now know to understand, prioritize, and love myself through and through. THANK YOU MURIEL!!a
    I really enjoyed my visit I felt like it was a judge Freezone. She made me feel comfortable to open up and she help me get to the root of my problem that I didn’t even know I was aware of. She help me break down my issue to figure out how to really solve my problem. She was super friendly, kind, an active listener, and patient. You can tell by her attitude that she really genuinely cares about her patients which I really appreciate since my experience it in the past weren’t so great. She is super flexible with her schedule. I really feel like I’m doing much better after going to a few sessions with her. I highly recommend that everybody give her a try because she really helped me tremendously. I was a bit skeptical at first about doing a telehealth visit, but she make sure that you get the best experience so you feel like you’re sitting in her office. Also, the telehealth visit gave me no excuse to miss any of my sessions. So, I was able to keep up with my sessions and really get better.
