Move From
Surviving to Thriving
Cutting-Edge Therapy for Individuals and Couples
In-Person in Manhattan and Online throughout New York
You’re struggling.
It’s impossible for you to relax, stop worrying, or get out of your own way.
Your relationship is nothing like it was at the start, and you wish you could return to being loved and excited by one another.
You’re convinced people won’t accept you for who you truly are, so you hide so much about yourself.
No matter what you do, you can’t move on.
Bad things happened to you. You see how they impact your life but can’t bring yourself to talk about them.
People expect you to be “over it” by now, but you can’t seem to shake this sadness.
Everyone else seems to have it all: the job, money, great friends, family. Meanwhile, your world pales in comparison.
Therapy can be the answer.
Maybe you have a specific focus you want to work on, like healing your
relationship or processing a loss.
Or, perhaps, the target of our work is less defined, as in wanting to feel
safer or more satisfied in life.
No matter your needs or where you find yourself stuck, therapy can help
you navigate this journey and move forward.
Take the next step now.
Too often, we get lost in our thoughts, worries, and obsessions.
We get pulled into memories, longings, and envy.
But therapy can help you be more present, fully grounded, and
engaged in the moment with a sense of calm and security.
You don’t need to long for another life. It’s time to make your life
as full and joyful as it can possibly be.
Hi, and Welcome to
Momentum Psychotherapy.

Consider me your therapy concierge! I’m Melissa Gerson, LCSW, Founder and Director of Momentum Therapy. With over two decades of experience, I’m here to guide you through the process of finding the right treatment and the perfect therapist for your needs.
Starting therapy is a deeply personal journey, and finding the right therapist is essential for success. If the fit isn’t right, it can lead to frustration and wasted time. Let’s work together to ensure you’re connected with the best match from the very beginning.
Our therapists each have specific areas of expertise, so no matter what you’re facing, we have a provider who can meet your unique needs. Whether you’re navigating trauma, struggling with anxiety, or facing relationship challenges, we have therapists who specialize in those areas and are passionate about supporting you through your journey.
I’ve personally handpicked each of our team members over the years and have seen them grow into respected experts in the field of mental health. My colleagues and I are dedicated to helping you make meaningful progress and create lasting change.
During a complimentary call, we’ll discuss your needs, preferences, and goals. My top priority is to listen to what you’re looking for and use that information to pair you with a therapist who is the ideal fit for your journey. Together, we’ll build momentum toward a brighter future.
