Graceful Connections Marriage and Family Therapy, PLLC

"Creating safer spaces for vulnerability, healing, and deeper connection. Heal the past, transform your present, and grow stronger relationships." Carrie Kane, LMFT Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (NY # 002247) I am a therapist who loves to collaborate to create a space where individuals, couples, and family members can feel safer to be more honest and vulnerable with each other and themselves. I received my degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Antioch University of New England, and I am licensed in New York. I have specialized training in trauma therapy and in work with couples and relationships. I am trained in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing), PC (Progressive Counting), and Flash Technique. Additionally, I utilize strategies from Bader & Pearson's Developmental Model of Couples Therapy, Bowen Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Internal Family Systems (IFS) and Body-Up Co-Regulation to assist the client with their goals (individually or in dynamics with others). I have intimate insight on intergenerational trauma, the resulting family distress, and how that cycle continues to repeat without proper interventions. I have had multiple experiences of walking with people through some of the hardest moments in their life. In my clinical experience, I truly invoke the Pat Parelli quote: "Take the time it takes so it takes less time." I find it vital to respect each client's decision regarding the speed of therapy and holding space for those who need time to sort through a lot. I enjoy walking with all clients on their journeys, with special interest in providing a therapeutic space to help clients reduce pain from past traumas, losses or grief, and build new patterns and dynamics with others to create the life they want.
