Laura Geftman LCSW

With nearly 20 years of experience and post-graduate education supporting adults in ART, IFS, and psychodynamic therapies, I am licensed in NY, NJ, PA, FL, and TX. Since 2013, I have been supporting clients safely and conveniently via telehealth. I would be honored to support you, too. I can help you with: anxiety, trauma, relationship issues, and emotional exhaustion. A typical treatment plan may involve 1-5 sessions of ART to quickly process and resolve distressing memories and IFS sessions as needed to help you care for the parts that feel stuck. You can expect to feel more grounded, confident, and emotionally balanced as you release old patterns and reconnect with yourself. My services are reimbursable by many insurance plans as an out-of-network provider. I offer a sliding scale and discounts to make therapy more accessible. Please verify your benefits before scheduling, or reach out with any questions — I’m happy to help you navigate your options.

I am happy to collaborate with other providers, such as medical professionals, nutritionists, physical therapists, and another other provider you might ask me to coordinate with to create a care plan that is tailored to your needs. I believe that this type of collaboration is essential for providing the best possible care to improving their quality of life. * Please note- This can and will only happen with your written permission.

ART is like a mental makeover—it helps you let go of painful memories and emotional patterns so you can feel calmer, stronger, and more grounded. ART was developed in 2008 by Laney Rosenzweig, MS, LMFT. It works with your brain’s natural ability to heal itself — similar to what happens during REM sleep. By combining visualization and rapid eye movements, ART helps your brain reorganize how it stores distressing memories, so they don’t trigger the same emotional response anymore. During a session, you’re in control the whole time. You don’t need to talk about the memory unless you want to. Instead, you’ll visualize it while following guided eye movements. This allows your brain to "rewrite" the memory, keeping the facts but stripping away the emotional pain. As a trained ART therapist, I’m here to walk you through the process. The best part? You don’t have to relive every painful detail to heal. Together, we’ll help your brain let go of the emotional charge behind those memories so you can finally feel more at peace.

Okay, let me guess — life feels like a lot right now. You’re overwhelmed, drained, and stuck in patterns that just aren’t working anymore. Maybe you’re questioning your relationships, struggling at work, or wondering why you feel so disconnected. That glass of whiskey, wine, or weed isn’t helping like it used to. With nearly 20 years of experience, I use Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) and Internal Family Systems (IFS) to help you process difficult emotions, release what’s weighing you down, and reconnect with yourself. Together, we’ll create a path toward feeling more grounded and at peace. I help people work through anxiety, trauma, relationship challenges, and feeling emotionally drained. ART helps resolve distressing memories quickly, while IFS helps you understand and care for the parts of yourself that feel stuck or overwhelmed. My approach is compassionate and direct — focused on helping you feel more grounded and in control of your life. You don’t have to figure it out alone. While you might not feel it right now, you know you’re ready for change. I’d be honored to support you as you take the first step toward relief and clarity. I’m out-of-network with insurance, but we can explore ways to make it work. You’re worth the effort — reach out when you’re ready.
