You may be in a crisis and in need of finding a way for life to return to normal. You might feel anxious and stuck, perhaps with taking a next step, or trapped in a persistent feeling of being depressed. I see psychotherapy as a tool to help my clients become unstuck in their lives, to build healthier relationships with themselves and their loved ones, and as a place to find sense and direction in a world where we often experience contradictory feelings and complex emotions.

I work with unique individuals who are seemingly successful and happy but deep inside feel lost, alone, even if they are in a relationship, and often feel like they don't belong or struggle to be present in life. With expertise gathered from years of experience across borders, time zones and cultures, I dive alongside men and women into the deep ocean of darkness— including all types of diversity, in-between/intersecting identities, worldwide travelers, high-achieving/performing and creative people. I am Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) certified and was formerly a clinical supervisor and psychologist at Johns Hopkins University.

The start of a new psychotherapy often occurs when you are going through a particularly difficult time in your life. It takes courage to reach out and begin the process. But the benefits can be significant. Psychotherapy provides an opportunity to expand your understanding of yourself and the meaning of your current difficulties, to clarify your hopes and develop new ways of pursuing them, and to learn how to cope with disappointments and challenges so they do not grow into insurmountable obstacles. I practice collaboratively. I will work with you to develop an approach that is responsive to your needs and preferences.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist with more than twenty-five years of experience. I received my doctorate from Rutgers and then went on to receive a postdoctorate certificate in psychotherapy and psychoanalysis from NYU. I view therapy as a collaborative process, one in which the client and I work together to find out what they want to get out of life and, more importantly, what is getting in the way of the achievement of these goals. I use a combination of techniques (psychodynamic, object-relations, cognitive-behavioral) to help best serve my clients.

Male Therapists

As a man, why might I want to see a male therapist?

There are many reasons a man might wish to work with a male therapist, including a degree of shared identity, which may help client and therapist connect to each other and allow for a more free-flowing discussion of issues that can be deeply personal. Some men may feel more comfortable talking to a male therapist about relationship concerns, the pressures they feel around the roles society and family place on men, career or job challenges, self-esteem, or anger problems. For some men who have not had a male role models in their lives, a good male therapist may be especially helpful.

How can I find out about a therapist’s experience treating men?

Individuals looking for treatment should feel comfortable directly asking a therapist about their history treating men overall and the issues that arise in therapy with men. A good therapist will be happy to discuss such matters as well as their educational background, approach to treatment, and how they think they can aid a prospective client. Prospective clients should also ask what the expectation is for treatment, and what the fee structure is, and whether and which insurance plans are accepted.

Can clients benefit from having a therapist of the same gender?

Therapy is not gender-specific, but some men as well as women feel more comfortable opening up about their experiences and history with a male therapist. An individual may feel that they have to explain less background information and be on the same page more quickly, particularly when discussing gender-specific challenges, in the case of male clients. Some women have prior negative experiences with women that predispose them to prefer working with a male in therapy. That said, a good clinician can transcend most if not all gender concerns. Ultimately, the most important factor in therapy is the connection and trust the client is able to build with the practitioner.

Would a male therapist have specific training in treating men?

Generally, no. There are no certifications for treating men specifically, but there are continuing education classes that therapists may take that focus on treating men as a group. There are many therapists who focus on men and male issues in their treatment and therefore have experience and expertise in this domain.
