MTZ Counseling is a group practice of talented and well-trained psychotherapists under the clinical direction and supervision of Michal Tziyon, LCSW. We offer counseling and psychotherapy services to adults, children, adolescents, couples and families. We are located in the Tribeca neighborhood in lower Manhattan.
We work in the evolving tradition of contemporary psychoanalysis, with a relational focus and deep respect for the soci-cultural and political complexities we face as individuals and collectively. We respect the deep nature of many emotional issues and their interpersonal origin in real life, often traumatic, developmental experiences. We seek to understand your unique developmental needs and how they may have been neglected, hijacked or violated by important figures in your life, as well as social institutions on whom you relied. Therapy - whether individual, couples' or group - is a process of understanding, healing and growing beyond these deep wounds and over-accommodations, freeing you for the emergence of a life that is more authentically your own. Therapy is best done through an open, intimate relationship with a professional dedicated to understanding your unique pain, who recognizes your needs for safety and emotional validation, and creates the space for the emergence of greater self-expression, agency and growth, allowing you to be more fully engaged and alive to yourself and to others. More in control of shaping your identity and destiny. As a group of clinicians we are deeply familiar with the struggles of launching oneself into adulthood.

I am a humanistic and relational therapist that is passionate about the power of human connection and strongly values the healing properties of the therapeutic relationship. I strive to create a warm and safe space where individuals can feel safe to explore difficult topics, believing that this is the first and most important step in the healing process. I recognize that the human experience is often deeply complex and painful, yet has the potential to be beautiful and fulfilling as well. My goal in working with people is to walk alongside them and help them to better understand themselves, gain insight, work through the more painful moments of the past, and discover their own capability to cope with and grow through life’s hardships. My approach to therapy is holistic, exploring the many components and intersecting areas of a person’s life. Additionally, I work to tailor each therapeutic experience to the individual, accounting for the unique needs of each person. I have experience working with trauma, substance use, anxiety, depression, identity issues, and members of the LGBTQIA+ community. I love utilizing humor, creativity, and mindfulness in session, as I believe tapping into these elements can be incredibly healing.
TriBeCa Therapy is a center for psychotherapy that was founded on the assumption that human beings are original, imaginative, inspired, and inventive. We particularly love our work with young adults and college students and are connected to issues they deal with. Issues related to sex and dating, drugs and drinking, depression and anxiety and academic pressures aren’t topics that will freak us out. We can handle it. College students frequently discuss with us challenges related to making friends in ways that don’t involve alcohol, making friends as a person of color, navigating social situations that demand connecting with strangers (like in the cafeteria) and finding “their people.” We work to create a partnership that takes these challenges on together, trying new strategies, taking increasingly bigger risks and dealing with the disappointments and celebrating the successes that follow.

I am committed to staying at the forefront of research and treatment advancements.

I received my Master’s degree and licensure in Social Work (LMSW) from New York University with a concentration in Complex Trauma and a specialization in co-occurring Substance Use Disorders and Severe Mental Illness. My approach combines person-centered, empathic frameworks, attachment therapies, and expansive trauma-informed CBT and DBT. My ethos is centered in a holistic, harm reduction lens using abolitionist and anti-oppressive practices with a deep commitment to divesting from disease and medical models of healing and recovery. How do we begin to heal the wounds of trauma and reconnect with our bodies safely and healthily? I am trained in Comprehensive DBT, trauma-focused CBT, Somatic Experiencing therapy, Narrative therapy, and Complex Trauma Systems therapy. From a young age and my own traumatic experiences I had an awareness that I wanted to be involved in the healing and recovery space. I saw first hand in my own home and community how important accessible, quality care is to sustainable wellness and long term recovery. After healing through some of my own core trauma wounds, I saw up close the dearth of holistic person centered and person empowered treatment options for so many of the communities that mean so much to me. I began my work in the criminal justice space and that propelled me and fueled me to pursue my MSW to continue my work with justice involved folks who carry stigmatic diagnosis and complex trauma which has deepened my commitment to harvest healing when and where I can. My place in this work is at the intersection of trauma and resilience. My therapeutic partnership history is with folks who have not seen themselves reflected or heard in traditional wellness or therapy spaces. Some focus areas are complex trauma, substance misuse, and severe mental illness, highly sensitive/empathic folks, ASD and neurodivergent folks, strengthening self-compassion and building shame resilience, navigating liberation and justice, trauma-informed work, supporting those recovering from diet culture and body shaming, furthering gender, racial & body liberation, and those impacted by the criminal and family court systems. We will work together in dialogue and treatment/healing planning to meet your unique and specific needs. Healing in a world that is violent, with systems of oppression hard at work, is not easy. I believe healing begins in the body and in community. In order to heal though, one must feel safe. Who I am in my practice is who I am in every space I enter- authentic, abolitionist, strong in my convictions to center the human in all of us. Steadfast in harm reduction practices. To protect spaces that are most affected by dismissal, prejudice, and harm. I commit myself to not meet wounds with more wounding. I believe in empowering individual choice and agency. I don't turn away from frightening or intrusive thoughts, or honest disclosure. My promise is to be transparent, and collaborative in safety planning. I believe all institutions of oppression should be defunded and abolished, and that you know your needs better than anyone else. My communities mean so much to me, sex workers, substance users, queer folks, parents, stigmatically diagnosed folks, let's begin!
