Private, psychology-based matchmaking for discerning Staten Island singles — personalized searches, careful vetting and complete discretion, delivered by Sameera Sullivan’s New York team.
Home → New York Matchmakers → Staten Island
Sameera Sullivan Matchmakers provides private, psychology-based matchmaking to successful and affluent singles across Staten Island — from the hilltop estates of Todt Hill and Emerson Hill to the St. George waterfront and the South Shore — from its Manhattan office at 276 Fifth Avenue. Led by CEO Sameera Sullivan, a former aerospace-industry executive recruiter with a Master’s in Adult Psychology and nearly two decades of matchmaking experience, the boutique firm keeps a deliberately limited client roster and is retained by professionals who want results without the trial and error of dating apps.
Staten Island clients are served by the same New York team by private appointment or remote consultation. Rather than placing you in a large database and assigning an account manager, Sameera stays personally involved in the search, vetting and introductions.
The result is a selective, discreet alternative to dating apps and high-volume agencies — built for people whose time, privacy and standards are worth protecting.
The Staten Island Market
Staten Island is the most close-knit of the five boroughs — and for successful singles, that is exactly the problem. Physicians at Staten Island University Hospital and RUMC, attorneys near the St. George courts, and business owners across the South Shore move in circles where everyone knows everyone.
Dating locally means dating inside those circles, with all the visibility that brings. Dating in Manhattan means a ferry ride and a scene built for volume, not commitment. Most accomplished Staten Islanders quietly do neither.
A private, citywide search solves both problems at once: vetted introductions drawn from well beyond the island, run with the discretion a small borough demands.
What Sets Us Apart
On an island where reputations are local and circles overlap, the way you search matters as much as who you find. What Staten Island lacks is a selective, discreet process run by someone personally accountable for the outcome. That is what Sameera Sullivan Matchmakers provides.
Boutique, one-on-one attention from CEO Sameera Sullivan — not an account manager
The rigor of a former executive recruiter applied to your personal life
Psychology-based matching with in-depth personality profiling
Every introduction personally screened and interviewed before you meet
Complete discretion — no public profile, no local visibility
A curated network across all of New York City — far beyond the island
The freedom to pause your search while a promising relationship develops
A deliberately limited client roster, so each search gets full attention
Clients receive direct access to Sameera, detailed searches, careful vetting and a process measured by lasting relationships — not the number of dates.
Tailored to the Individual
No two clients arrive with the same history, priorities or concerns. Our Staten Island matchmaking is tailored to the individual rather than built around a one-size-fits-all program.
For
Accomplished women often have full careers, full personal lives and high standards. On Staten Island, the added difficulty is a local pool where the compatible men are either already known — or already talked about.
Sameera takes time to understand what has and has not worked before, then searches citywide for men whose character and intentions align. Women who prefer a more private path may also explore Sameera’s women’s matchmaking and registry options.
For
Many successful men have little time to date and little interest in sorting through hundreds of profiles — or in being recognized on one. They meet people socially or professionally, yet still struggle to find women who are compatible, available and serious about a relationship.
Our men’s matchmaking process gives men access to personally screened candidates chosen for more than appearance — values, lifestyle and relationship goals. The purpose is not more dates. It is better introductions.
For
Gay men on Staten Island often find the local scene small enough that real privacy is impossible — and that apps create visibility without compatibility.
Private matchmaking offers a discreet, focused alternative with a citywide reach. Sameera also offers dedicated matchmaking and private registry options for gay men.
Selective Option
Not everyone is ready to become a full matchmaking client. Some qualified singles may be considered for one of Sameera Sullivan Matchmakers’ private registries.
Registry participation offers the chance to be considered for introductions when a client’s search aligns with your background and goals. It is a selective option — not a public singles database.
The Process
01
An in-depth conversation about who you are and what you want next. Staten Island clients usually begin with a private remote consultation, or in person at our Manhattan office at 276 Fifth Avenue — a short ride from the ferry at Whitehall. Either way, the process fits around your life.
02
We look beyond age and profession to emotional availability, communication style, values and the traits most likely to create a durable connection — informed by in-depth personality profiling.
03
Sameera personally vets and interviews finalists, then draws from a curated network across New York City — not just the island. After each introduction, candid feedback refines the search.
Common Questions
No. Sameera Sullivan Matchmakers serves Staten Island through its New York office at 276 Fifth Avenue in Manhattan. Staten Island is an area served by the New York team, not a separate business location.
Most Staten Island clients begin with a private remote consultation; in-person meetings at the Manhattan office are available by appointment. From there, the search and introductions are coordinated around your schedule.
No — and for most Staten Island clients, that is the point. Your search draws on vetted candidates across New York City and the broader network, matched on lifestyle and relationship goals rather than proximity alone.
The office at 276 Fifth Avenue is a short ride from the Staten Island Ferry terminal at Whitehall, or reachable by car via the Verrazzano. Many clients simply start remotely — the process is built to fit around your life.
Completely. On an island where circles overlap and news travels, discretion is not a feature of the service — it is the service. No public profile, no local visibility, no chance encounters with your own dating history.
Yes. The team works with successful women, straight men and gay men, and the process is personalized to each individual’s goals.
Staten Island’s neighborhoods attract people with very different priorities and lifestyles. We do not treat these areas as separate office locations — they are communities served by our New York matchmaking team.
The island’s most established addresses — executives, physicians and business owners who value privacy and find the compatible local pool far smaller than their standards.
Waterfront professionals and ferry commuters whose careers point toward Manhattan while their lives stay rooted on the island.
Quiet hilltop streets near Wagner College — accomplished singles who prefer their personal lives kept personal.
South Shore professionals and business owners with deep community roots, seeking family compatibility and long-term stability.
The island’s southern reaches — established families and successful singles for whom discretion and commitment matter more than dating volume.

Work With the New York Team
