Meet Rachel Chernyavskiy
I'm the Owner and Director of RBM Marriage & Family Therapy, PLLC.
I received my Master's degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Hofstra University after completing a graduate degree in Psychology in Education from Teachers College, Columbia University.
My team and I are deeply committed to creating a safe, welcoming, and confidential environment where you can openly share your experiences and work through the challenges you may be facing.
When Life Feels Harder Than It Looks
Sometimes the hardest part is not knowing how to explain what feels wrong. You may still be functioning on the outside while feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or stuck underneath it all. Therapy can help you understand the pattern more clearly and take the next step with support.
Who We Help
-
High-functioning but privately overwhelmed
-
Burned out professionals trying to keep up
-
Partners who love each other but feel disconnected
-
Adults navigating grief, illness, or identity shifts
-
Couples recovering from betrayal or chronic conflict
-
People who know something feels off, even if they cannot fully explain it yet
We work with adults and couples who want more clarity, steadiness, and connection. Some come in for personal support. Others come in because something in the relationship no longer feels workable. Therapy helps make sense of what is happening and what to do next.
Individual Therapy
Individual therapy offers one-on-one support for adults who feel overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, stuck, or ready for change.
Common concerns include anxiety, depression, burnout, trauma, grief, anger, illness, and major life transitions.
Individual therapy provides space to understand what you are carrying and begin moving forward with more clarity and steadiness.
Couples Therapy
Couples therapy helps partners understand unhealthy patterns, improve communication, and rebuild connection.
Common concerns include recurring conflict, trust issues, infidelity, emotional distance, intimacy concerns, parenting stress, financial tension, and major relationship changes.
Couples therapy, sometimes called marriage counseling or marriage therapy, helps partners improve communication, repair trust, and rebuild connection.

A Practical, Supportive Approach
Therapy should feel both supportive and useful.
That means having space to talk honestly about what is happening, while also working toward greater clarity, emotional understanding, and real change. The goal is not to judge your reactions or tell you to simply “push through.” The goal is to help you understand the deeper pattern, respond differently, and build something more sustainable.
Whether you are coming for personal support or relationship support, therapy can help you feel less stuck and less alone in what you are carrying.
Online Therapy That Fits Real Life
Online therapy makes it easier to get support without adding more travel, coordination, or stress to your week.
Sessions can take place from home or another private space, which can make therapy more accessible and more consistent — especially when you are balancing work, parenting, caregiving, health concerns, commuting, or a demanding schedule.
For many people, online therapy offers a practical way to begin getting help while still working within the realities of everyday life.

Not Sure Where to Start?
You do not need to have the perfect words before reaching out.
Some people come to therapy knowing exactly what they want help with. Others simply know they feel overwhelmed, disconnected, reactive, emotionally exhausted, or stuck in patterns they want to understand better.
Starting therapy does not require having everything figured out. It just requires a place to begin.
How to Get Started
-
Reach out to schedule a consultation.
-
Share a little about what has been feeling difficult or what you want support with.
-
Begin therapy with a clearer sense of where to focus and what kind of support will help most.
WHAT PEOPLE SAY
Daniel P.
"Rachel's approach to therapy is unique in that she wants you to graduate from therapy. We started seeing her weekly, then biweekly, then monthly. Now we know we can text her anytime we need and schedule a session as needed. She's wonderful."
Kristina M.
"We started working with Rachel while engaged in 2022. She was such a big part of our wedding being a moment to celebrate our relationship. We felt weird that we couldn't invite her to our wedding because we felt she was the only person who knew how much we had accomplished to get to where we are now."
Renee W.
"I'm so beyond thankful for this practice. I see one Therapist for individual therapy and my partner and I see a different therapist at the practice. Having all our care under one roof is so helpful."
