Gary Katz is a psychotherapist and founder of The Center for Intimacy Recovery in New York, which focuses primarily on intimacy and relationships. He has found that without a sense of intimacy with one’s self, people can’t fully experience intimacy with someone else. The Center for Intimacy Recovery helps clients find ways to have the intimacy and connection in life they are seeking and to uncover all the ways that they have learned to play it safe and protect their hearts, which at times can get in the way of intimacy. Prior to opening this practice, Gary worked in education for over 20 years and as a rabbi.
