Things used to be different.

Take yourself back to the memory of a time when you were running on all cylinders…

There was no time to be sad, lonely, or afraid – you were too focused on the people in your life, your job, your health, and everything else you were doing.

After all, you were living in New York.

Carina* enjoyed her job.

It wasn’t the perfect job, but she felt appreciated, had challenging work, and was well paid.

For the first time, she believed she could stay in this job for years.

Tom* did everything he was supposed to do.

Moved to New York, got married, had children, and got a good job based on a good education.

Life moved along.

Mary* found her love at the right time.

She had a good job, wonderful friends, and was feeling positive about her body.

*Carina, Tom, and Mary are fictionalized composites of real clients whom we’ve helped.

Until, somewhere along the way, things changed.

Carina comes home from work later and later, feeling like she doesn’t have a life outside of work. Same routine, order out, TV, and wine before bed.

Tom used to laugh and take the compliments about his life. These days, he changes the subject to Giant’s scores and pushes down the sense of dissatisfaction and loneliness that shadows him most days. It’s like some integral part of himself has gone missing.

Mary can’t understand why there is so much drama in her life. Why can’t things be simple, and friends and family get her? Why is she gaining weight?

1365539138They grow to dislike the things they loved most.

It’s spring in New York! Locals have shrugged out of their winter coats as early as possible. There are smiles on their faces, and the parks are full of people enjoying the weather.

Carina doesn’t want to go out and deal with questions about her life. She stays home and resents it. Just leaving the house has begun to feel like an ordeal.

Tom is still sad, and now he’s also angry about the fact that he’s sad. He’s not supposed to be sad or angry while it’s nice out!

Mary fakes it and does what everyone expects of her. She attends brunch with her partner and friends and changes the topic when it comes to her relationship. She is angry and has no one that gets her.

Carina, Tom, and Mary are afraid they will always be stuck.

It’s been years, self-help books, therapy, motivational apps, and they are still stuck. All attempts have proven futile. And they keep getting older.

They are losing hope in anything to make them happy.

You Are Not The Problem

What if you were perfect and everyone else was the problem?

Carina didn’t ask for a 50-hour-a-week job.

Tom just wants some time for himself without everyone needing him.

Mary is the best partner anyone could ask for.

There is a path forward. Let’s take your life back!

It’s time to let an expert take the lead.

The process is like learning to drive. As long as you’re committed to the program and willing to sit in the driver’s seat, I guarantee a patient and willing instructor by your side.

Therapy is all about creating the right program with the right tools for the right people ­– this is what we do.

Hi, I’m Marcos,
The founder of Fidi Therapy.

And as a born and raised New Yorker, I can tell you no matter what stories Hollywood spins about us having the necessary grit to deal with life here, many of us are sad, unfulfilled, angry and stuck. And it’s not our fault.

New York can be the perfect backdrop to the life you want to build, but sometimes it’s easy to lose track of the primary protagonist in the story.

The counselors here at Fidi Therapy are all New Yorkers who have been where you are. We’ll listen to you without judgment as you tell us your dreams, fears, and aspirations. Then, together, we’ll work to create a blueprint, gather the tools, and create a plan to help you build that dream into a reality.

It’s time to recognize your strengths and weaknesses, recommit to your passions, and finally create the life you’ve always wanted. Others can come along for the ride or not.

Get in touch, and let’s take the next step on your healing journey today!

Slide-1

Marcos is a kind soul and is very easy to open up to. I needed help with a few specific issues, and we got to the bottom of them rather quickly. I consider him a personal trainer for my mind.

Arlena Y.

Slide-1

Dr. Quinones was very helpful. His calm tone of voice is very relaxing and made me feel comfortable almost instantly. He asked thorough questions in order to fully understand the issues I was having.

Jessica B.

Slide-1

His therapy is short term so we meet every week. He sends “homework” or things you have to pay attention to in your daily life and then discuss them in the next visit to make changes. He’s very professional and friendly. His treatment works!

Isabel S.

Slide-1

Compassionate, caring, and very honest. Down to earth and easy to talk to. I’m so glad I found Marcos! I definitely recommend him to everyone – you will not be disappointed!

Antoinette C.

Carina regained passion for her work.

With the help of her Fidi therapist, Carina learned how to say no and how to ask for what she wants. She learned how to take risks and believe in herself to get anything she wants, including a well-paying job without having to work 50 hours.

Tom reached his goals.

With the help of his Fidi therapist, Tom has built his blueprint, gathered his tools, and built his dream house. Periodically, when rats try to come in his home and destroy what he has built, Tom recognizes the ratty thoughts, roachy feelings, and shitty behavior, and smiles at all three as he heads for the park.

Mary is engaged.

With the help of her Fidi therapist, Mary regained the sense of who she has always been, a Gem. Mary has always believed she was special, only no one treated her special. Now, she demands to be treated the way she feels and is getting everyone, including her partner, to see her best self.

Take back control.
