Dr. Michael Lax

Psychologist

Virtual • New York


I believe that long-standing problems do not necessarily require long-term therapy. By utilizing evidence-based treatments and focusing on interventions that create lasting change, my goal is to help clients make meaningful progress as efficiently as possible. Clients often describe me as patient, empathic, and easy to talk to. I work hard to understand your experiences from your perspective so that we can create a treatment plan that is personalized and practical.

Therapy with me is collaborative and active. Rather than simply discussing problems, we focus on developing skills and strategies that you can continue to use long after therapy ends. My goal is not to create dependence on therapy, but to help you become your own therapist by teaching techniques that promote resilience, confidence, and long-term emotional well-being.

Tatiana Reis

Tatiana Reis

Therapist

Virtual • New York


I am a licensed psychotherapist working with adults, individuals, and couples, offering a warm, collaborative, and client-centered approach. My work is grounded in relational, psychodynamic, and existential perspectives and integrates cognitive behavioral techniques and trauma-informed care. Together, we explore how emotions, attachment experiences, and relationships shape your inner world while building practical tools for change.

I specialize in relationship dynamics, anxiety, life transitions, identity exploration, loneliness, grief, and emotional regulation. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling disconnected; from others, from themselves, or from a sense of meaning in their lives.

I strive to create a space where you feel seen, understood, and challenged with compassion. Together, we focus less on finding perfect solutions and more on developing the capacity to navigate life’s complexities while fostering greater connection, self-understanding, and belonging.

Aligned Counseling & Therapy is for those who are tired of repeating patterns that no longer give them the life or relationships they want. Maybe you overthink conversations, worry about how others see you, struggle to say no, find yourself in relationships that leave you disappointed, or keep having the same argument with your partner or family. Maybe your motivation isn't what it used to be, you don't enjoy the things you used to, or life's changing, or work, school, or everyday life feel overwhelming. Together, we connect the dots to figure out what's not in alignment, and develop tools to help you move toward the life you want.
