Lois Nachamie

Ms. Nachamie provides individual psychotherapy, marriage counseling and family therapy for a wide range of issues including interpersonal and work-related concerns, sexual problems, anxiety and depression. In addition, using a combination of talk therapy, cognitive behavioral techniques and clinical hypnotherapy tailored to the individual, she addresses such discrete concerns as weight management, smoking cessation, and stress reduction.


With a strong background in parenting, Ms. Nachamie provides individual and couples treatment to families with children, as well as couples deciding whether or not to become parents. Many couples and individuals have found short-term, parent education counseling useful for specific issues such as sleep and setting limits. Others, both individuals and couples, find that underlying dynamics have a negative affect on their marriages, parenting styles, relationships, or work, requiring longer-term treatment.

In addition to her professional training, Ms. Nachamie holds an MFA in Writing from Columbia University, which proves invaluable in understanding the creative process. She also has a personal interest in health and fitness, having completed a marathon later in life, which is another life experience she brings to her therapeutic practice.

Ms. Nachamie’s working style is interactive. Regardless of their marital or parental status, most of Ms. Nachamie’s clients experience a positive change in their lives due to therapy.
