About Psychotherapy for Young Women

Transforming the Lives of Women and Young Couples in NYC Since 2015

Hi! My name is Claudia Giolitti-Wright. I launched Psychotherapy for Young Women in 2015 after discovering that my most transformative work happened when I was sitting across from young women and couples. There was something effortless and unique about our connection that allowed me to see their real potential, and the invisible barriers keeping them stuck in cycles of self-doubt and emotional pain they couldn’t break alone.

This deep clarity allowed me to offer more effective, transformative interventions—creating the kind of real lasting change I hadn’t seen with any other client group. That’s why I chose to dedicate my entire practice and clinical research to helping Gen Z and Millennial women and couples break free from what’s holding them back and build the fulfilling lives and relationships they deserve!

A Personal Note From Our Founder

Claudia Giolitti-Wright Female Therapist in NYC

I know firsthand how overwhelming it was to be a young woman struggling with relationships, anxiety, and self-worth in a world that often feels so demanding and critical of women. I remember the pressure, the self-doubt, the relentless inner critic—all while feeling there weren’t enough resources available that were specifically designed for me.

I tried everything! Yoga, meditation, and an older therapist that couldn’t understand at all what I was struggling with. Eventually, I found the right therapist and committed to my healing.

My own struggle to find the right support—someone who truly understood the unique challenges and pressures I was facing as a young woman—inspired me to create the kind of help I desperately needed but took far too long to find.

Today, Psychotherapy for Young Women is a growing practice of seven female therapists who share the same passion: helping young women and couples untangle emotional roadblocks, reconnect with themselves, and build fulfilling relationships!

"I came to Psychotherapy for Young Women at a time where I was struggling with immense anxiety. Through my therapist's nurturing, compassionate, and understanding guidance we were able to figure out where my anxiety stemmed from. My therapist gave me something I could never get from family or friends- She gave me validation. As a survivor of child sexual abuse, that was all I could ever need. I would leave her sessions feeling empowered, in control and confident..."

With my therapist's help I have been able to experience things in a way that I have always known were possible, but had not been able to achieve..."
