Mindy Utay is a licensed psychoanalyst and the originator of a premarital counseling method called the Emotional Prenuptial Agreement, a nonbinding contract between couples that definitively lays the groundwork for the emotional terms of their marriage. The agreement addresses four key areas of a relationship: resolving conflict, anticipating conflict, articulating emotional needs, and providing full disclosure about past relationships and issues therein.

Utay draws on multiple fields of expertise in her psychotherapeutic practice. Before becoming a licensed psychotherapist she worked as a lawyer at the firm Weil, Gotshal and Manges, where she specialized in negotiation. She has served as a behavioral expert in national media, including Forbes and Woman’s Day and as a blogger for The Huffington Post. Utay is a graduate of the University of Pennsylvania and George Washington University Law School and received a master’s degree in social work from New York University. She lives and works on Manhattan’s Upper East Side. Italic text
