Are you thriving or just getting through?

Dr Will Swift


Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck in self-doubt, or struggling to connect with a partner, therapy is where everyone can be truly seen, supported, and empowered to grow.

Inclusive Therapy creates a nurturing and affirming space to build resilience, deepen relationships, and find clarity

Therapy for When Life Feels Uncertain

Life transitions can be overwhelming: a breakup, a career shift, dating frustrations, old habits that won’t budge. Even when things are steady on the surface, you might feel disconnected, restless, or unsure of what’s next.

Therapy can help you move forward.

It’s a place to heal, rediscover what enhances your resilience, and explore what allows you to truly thrive—in relationships, at work, and within yourself.

From Challenge to Change — Let’s Take the First Step

You’re not alone.

Many people come to therapy to:

I’m a licensed clinical psychologist and one of the early architects of modern cognitive therapy. For more than 40 years, I’ve been helping people in Manhattan and beyond shift how they think, feel, and connect.

My style is straightforward and warm, with a playful edge. I focus on what matters most to you — and makes therapy as engaging as it is transformative.

My perspective is shaped by a lifetime of experience — from supporting clients through the AIDS crisis and 9/11, to standing alongside those navigating marriage equality and social justice movements. This wide lens informs every session. I started practicing when personal ads ruled the dating scene. Now, with dating apps and hookup culture, connection looks very different — and sometimes more confusing.

Whether you’re casually dating, seeking a long-term relationship, or untangling challenges with a partner, I bring both clinical expertise and lived experience to help you find your way.
