Suffering takes many shapes and forms, and the mental anguish of anxiety and depression can be particularly troublesome. Hope, however overcomes despair.

Life is a challenge! Self-doubt, ambiguity, and fear make us unsure in what direction to go. We seek relief but, often our quick fixes only compound our suffering. We may live in fear that we will not live up to our or other people's expectations. Caught up in rumination and worry, we realize that we do not live in the present moment. Worrying about the future and troubled by our pasts, we often find it difficult to enjoy the present. This is all a symptom of being human.

As a licensed clinical psychologist, my primary goal is to foster a safe and non-judgmental environment where you feel heard and understood. I will work with you and/or your child to build a collaborative partnership, regardless of what brings you to treatment. The therapeutic relationship ultimately serves as the foundation to deepen your understanding of relationships, behaviors, and thought patterns, as well as develop healthy coping strategies and insight. We will work together to help you invest in your strengths, while shifting away from patterns that no longer serve you.

My psychotherapy practice is a synthesis of my insights in the fields of psychology, neuroscience, psychoanalysis and both long and short-term psychotherapy techniques.

Family, significant others, work, money, beliefs: our various circles of influence - inside and out - connect to create the beautiful, complex and intimidating maps of our lives.

It's not easy to find a therapist so I hope that what I tell you about me and the way I work will make it easier.

Relationships can bring us the greatest joys in life- but sometimes they cause us the deepest pain. You may feel "I'm not enough" which can lead to giving up, giving in, or working harder to gain their acceptance. You may be your own worst enemy with your strong, active self-critical voice-- keeping you stuck in these patterns. If you experience relational or internal dissatisfaction, long for something more- therapy may be your next best step. Together we'll get to the root causes (likely fears and lies) and gain you some freedom to show up with your best parts. We'll move from judging yourself harshly, to judging yourself fairly.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Teaching Artist, I approach clinical practice through an artistic lens. You are your own story and need to be heard and understood on your own terms. While I incorporate psychodynamic, CBT and mindfulness approaches, I feel that psychotherapy needs to be reinvented for each person. Most of all, I believe that listening, and listening deeply, heals.

My goal as a clinically trained therapist is to support and encourage people who are having difficulty coping with their past and everyday life. I provide a safe, non-judgmental environment within the therapeutic process that can lead to emotional, spiritual, and personal growth. I have counseled people for over 20 years as an ordained Minister, teacher and mediation specialist.

It is important to find a therapist who helps you to feel safe and understood but is still effective in facilitating change. In my psychotherapy practice, I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to treat issues such as depression, anxiety, sleeping issues, procrastination, low self-esteem, and anger. I provide support during significant life stressors, including career/work issues, relationship turmoil, pregnancy/parenting concerns, and bereavement. I am also a native New Yorker, and understand many of the unique issues we face.
