As a hospice counselor for 14 years, I worked with all kinds of people and families navigating the "wilderness of grief" and major life transition. I was continually inspired by how transformational the journey can be - IF you have the right support. My work is to help you connect to that support. I assist and help guide you through the dark and transitional times, to fortify your connection to self and Source and to widen your perception of what is possible in your life - so that you can live in the peace, joy and fulfillment that are unequivocally your birthright.

My ideal client is open to collaboration, to working on understanding their inner strengths and needs more in depth, and is willing to help create and grow from within as well as from without. I utilize creative expression and interventions designed to bring out the best in my clients and to confront aspects of themselves they may have not realized existed from a strength-based, solution-focused, systemic perspective.

I am a clinical psychologist providing therapy and assessment services in Scarsdale and Greenwich.

Let's work together to solve the issues impacting your life and create a more balanced lifestyle that will open new opportunities for you to thrive.

I have successfully worked with both adults and teens from many different cultural backgrounds and stages of the life cycle. Creating a safe and non-judgmental space for you to process what you are going through is something I invite you to experience.

My focus as a therapist is to learn from clients the areas of life - relationships, work, school, substance use - where they feel “stuck” and to work together to strategize ways to become “unstuck”. Setting goals and making progress towards those goals is paramount for clients to feel successful in the therapy process. I like to support clients in finding practical ways to start the change process and to help them maintain their motivation.

Are you struggling with depression? Anxiety? Relationships? Life comes with struggles and transitions that are often difficult to manage on our own. With assistance and support there can be increased awareness to self and the environment making life infinitely more enjoyable. I am a licensed therapist in the state of CT and specialize in the topics of anxiety, depression, grief, relationships, identity confusion, and pregnancy/postpartum. In couples work I focus on the importance of communication, trust, and sexual awareness. My approach to psychotherapy has emphasis on the needs of each individual client.

I know how hard it is to think about seeing a therapist and making that call. But it all about being empowered to use one's own strengths to see things clearly, and discover options and choices. It is all about two heads being better than one when a person is "stuck", maybe even knowing what to do but being unable to do it. It is important to find a well-trained therapist who has completed her own treatment and with whom one feels safe and comfortable.

A certain amount of stress, sadness, and anxiety is expected in our lives. However, when these feelings become overwhelming, they can interfere with daily functioning, relationships, work, and physical health.

I favor cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) because of its proven effectiveness in treating the problems that I most commonly see, including anxiety, stress, depression, and chronic pain/illness. It is based on the premise that the way we think directly affects how we feel and act.
