Getting to know Murray Kaufman
Hi there, I'm Murray!
The first session includes introducing myself to you and learning what prompted you to request therapy. Together, we will discuss what you would like to accomplish through therapy. I will then gather historical and present information to work with you in creating a treatment plan that supports your success.
My approach
My approach is interactive and results-oriented. I utilize Cognitive-Behavioral, Psychodynamic, Systems, Ericksonian psychotherapy, guided imagery, and Imago-based Couples Therapy.
My focus
I work with adults individually, as well as couples and families, addressing issues such as Anxiety, Depression, Intimacy and Relationships, Panic Attacks/Panic Disorder, and coping with trauma.
My communication style
I want each client to have a safe space where I listen closely with compassion and understanding. By doing so, we work together to make therapy successful.
My journey to therapy
Since junior high school, friends have come to me for help with their problems. After two professional careers in music and the hotel business, I returned to college to learn how to help people improve their quality of life by being happier. This motivated me to become a Marriage and Family Therapist. I earned my Master's in Transpersonal Psychology from Sofia University, which deepened my understanding of holistic healing and personal growth.
My goals for you
Working together, I will listen to what you want to accomplish and create steps to give you the best chance of succeeding with your goals.
My first session with you
In the first session, I will introduce myself and listen closely to understand why you decided to begin therapy. Then, we will discuss the steps that can help you resolve the challenges standing in the way of your happiness-both within yourself and in your relationships.
