Mindfulness-Based Therapy in New York City

Find Calm, Clarity, and Balance at Manhattan Wellness

In the midst of busy careers, parenting, school, and life’s constant demands, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed, scattered, or burnt out. Mindfulness-Based Therapy provides practical strategies for you to slow down, stay present, and manage stress in a sustainable, compassionate way.

At Manhattan Wellness, our therapists guide clients in cultivating awareness, emotional balance, and resilience, helping you navigate life’s challenges with focus, clarity, and calm.

Mindfulness-Based Therapy blends traditional talk therapy with mindfulness practices drawn from evidence-based approaches. It encourages clients to observe thoughts, emotions, and sensations without judgment while creating space to respond intentionally, rather than react impulsively.

This approach is especially effective for individuals who experience:
  • High levels of career or academic stress
  • Challenges balancing work, parenting, and personal life
  • Anxiety, irritability, or sleep difficulties related to a busy lifestyle
  • Difficulty focusing or feeling present in daily activities

By practicing mindfulness, clients develop a toolkit for coping with stress, improving attention, and cultivating emotional resilience - no matter what life throws your way.
