WELCOME TO MIDDLE WAY PSYCHOTHERAPY

OUR MISSION

At Middle Way Psychotherapy, we provide compassionate, evidence-based care that supports individuals and families in finding balance, healing, and connection. We blend mindful practices with proven therapeutic approaches, offering a collaborative space where clients of all ages can explore their inner world and move toward meaningful change.

Whether you’re navigating anxiety, trauma, life transitions, or seeking deeper self-understanding, our dedicated team is here to walk alongside you—every step of the way.

A Team That Grows Together

Every therapist at Middle Way Psychotherapy is committed to ongoing professional development. We hold ourselves to a high standard—not just in training, but in presence, humility, and integrity.

We don’t just “offer therapy.” We offer thoughtful, relational care from people who genuinely enjoy working and learning together.

A Group Practice with Heart

Middle Way Psychotherapy was created from the belief that healing happens best in community—not just for clients, but for therapists too.

After many years in community-based mental health settings, founder Tara Rullo, LCSW, knew she wanted to build something different: a group practice where clients receive high-quality, personalized care and therapists feel resourced, supported, and inspired to grow.

Tara brings over two decades of experience leading clinical teams, training mental health professionals, and developing programs rooted in compassion and competence. That foundation shows up in everything we do—from how we care for clients to how we show up for one another.

A Space That Feels Safe

Our newly renovated Brooklyn Heights office is designed to feel warm, calm, and restorative—for clients and therapists alike. Whether you’re meeting with us in person or virtually, we want your therapy space to feel like a place you can truly exhale.

FAQs

How long are therapy sessions, and how often will we meet?

Sessions are 45–60 minutes long and typically occur once per week, except for our intensives offerings which are determined beforehand with the client.

Meeting regularly allows for consistent progress and helps build a trusting therapeutic relationship. If and when you begin to meet your goals, we may decide together to taper sessions before concluding treatment.

Can I speak with a therapist before scheduling a session?

Yes—we offer a free 15-minute phone consultation with each of our therapists.

This is a chance for you to share what you’re looking for, ask questions, and get a feel for the therapist’s approach. We’ll also ask a few questions to ensure we’re a good fit for your needs and goals.

What are your therapy fees?

Our individual therapy sessions range from $225 to $325, depending on the therapist. Couples therapy sessions range from $250 to $350.

We reserve a limited number of low-fee spots for individuals for whom cost is a barrier—please feel free to reach out to inquire about availability.

Do you take insurance?

We do not accept in-network insurance at this time.

However, many clients with out-of-network benefits are eligible for reimbursement. If your plan includes out-of-network mental health coverage, we will provide monthly superbills you can submit to your insurance provider for possible partial reimbursement.

What is your cancellation policy?

Life happens, we understand! You will not be charged for a session if you cancel with at least 48 hours’ notice.
