"I completed my doctorate in clinical psychology at Yeshiva University and psychoanalytic training at New York University. I have been in private practice for over 20 years, treating adolescents and adults. Most of the people I see, seek treatment to get help with difficulties in relationships. In psychotherapy, we identify repetitive patterns that interfere with the initiation and/or maintenance of intimate relationships. I also work with people who experience anxiety or depressive states."

"With over 20 years experience, I offer two main services. First, cognitive-behavioral psychotherapy with female adolescent/women with mood, relationship, and eating disordered issues. Second, neuropsychological evaluations for boys/girls from elementary through graduate school lets us pinpoint learning or attentional issues that compromise performance, achievement, and self-esteem. This dual focus allows for a broad understanding of what might prevent one from reaching their true potential. A premium is placed on self-understanding, feeling heard, and making small yet effective changes that allow for connections and confidence to thrive."

"As a clinical therapist, my purpose is to center clients in the awareness that they MATTER in the world. For over 25 years I have run a private practice in New York City, working with individuals, couples and groups. My office provides a safe environment for clients to speak openly; to identify and resolve personal challenges and conflicts in order to rediscover and reach their fullest potential - leading to a joyous, healthier life. My practice is grounded in the principles of interpersonal/relational therapy, somatic experience (SE), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Goal Oriented Therapy, Spirituality, and EMDR."

"NY Neurofeedback offers clinically proven, non-drug treatments for a variety of common problems under my careful supervision as a . , Psychologist and Neurotherapist. The treatments create positive, lasting changes in adults and children. I work to bring you to health and living a life of happiness"

"Often time, people begin psychotherapy as a result of feeling disconnected from themselves or the world. When overwhelmed by life, you may notice feeling drained, disconnected, dissatisfied with your relationships, and at times physically unwell. In therapy, I create a safe space to explore past, present, and future struggles and work towards goals in order to live a more insightful, balanced, fulfilled life."

"Psychotherapy provides a unique space through which a new relationship with oneself and others can be forged. Change in patterns of feeling and relating can be achieved through a process of exploration of and reflection on one's deeply held beliefs, convictions, and values, and past and present experiences. My approach is collaborative and informed by psychodynamic perspectives. I strive to facilitate meaning, understanding, and empowerment through close attention to the details of one's internal life and external context. Many of the individuals I work with enter psychotherapy to work through depression and anxiety related to struggles with identity, relationships, loss, trauma, and migration."

"For thousands of years, philosophers have been developing powerful tools for facing the deepest challenges in human life. In our sessions, we use these tools to empower you to think independently, live confidently and choose courageously. We approach your issues of thought and feeling as an architect approaches redesigning a standing structure: We try to understand and save what works well; but together, strive to increase the coherence, order and harmony. We push through to the deepest aspects of your questions, pursue the clearest formulations of your thoughts, and build strong bridges toward objectivity."

"Life presents us with personal and professional challenges. Negotiating relationships, striving towards goals, managing unexpected obstacles and emotions, experiencing depression and anxiety, or simply undergoing transitions in life are integral to our existence. As a clinical psychologist, I utilize a holistic person-centered approach, which fosters insight into my clients' current circumstances, promoting meaningful change, increased self-worth and understanding. Therapeutic frameworks including cognitive behavioral, reality, interpersonal, and mindfulness approaches are the foundation of my practice. "

"In psychotherapy, the ground of being is typically taken to be the self (or ego), and the work of psychotherapy entails mending the fractured self, so that the self is more unified, whole, and complete. This is what we commonly call self-acceptance--acceptance of all the parts of our self, especially the more vulnerable and hurting parts we instinctively reject and ignore. Paradoxically, our suffering decreases when we are able to engage in the difficult practice of allowing vulnerable and hurting parts in, practicing holding them, and possibly relaxing, before we take our next step. Traditional psychotherapy tends to reach its limits here."

"Most of us don't choose to suffer. Most of us are suffering because no one ever taught us that we have a choice not to. If you have ever expressed any stress or sadness from looking in the mirror and telling yourself you "should" lose weight, make more money, or be any different than who you are now, then you are suffering the consequences of distorted thinking, and this is the time to take charge and change."

"Are you at a crossroads and need support, guidance and a road map to guide you through a challenging time? Do you want to understand what is keeping you or your marriage/partnership from moving forward and experiencing joy? We all get stuck, require a little extra support and need to learn new tools to better manage the ups and downs of life to be more connected to ourselves and our partners. My style is compassionate and non judgmental. I provide a safe space where healing can occur. I specialize in relationship issues, depression, anxiety, grief/loss and spiritual growth."

"I often find that bringing awareness to underlying conflicts while providing tangible support provides the most lasting results. I have advanced training in psychodynamic techniques as well as cognitive-behavioral therapy. Your needs and how you wish to approach them will drive our work together."

"Are you feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, sad, anxious or angry? Are you dealing with the pain of past experiences that continue to impact your life and relationships? Therapy untangles difficult emotions and helps to inspire the insight and understanding that can lead to a more meaningful life, a healthier sense of self, and improved relationships. In our sessions, we can create a safe space for you to feel understood and empowered. We will actively collaborate together: to deepen your understanding of yourself, reduce emotional distress, create better ways of coping, and promote enduring healing."

"Do you feel stuck in the same old situation? Are you unsatisfied in (or out of) a relationship? Disappointments and obstacles happen in life, but you don't have to remain stuck. I work with individuals and couples to reconnect with their spontaneity and to discover a full range of creative choices towards a richer, more engaged life. Therapy must be a safe place to talk about difficulties, but to open up new possibilities, therapy must also be experiential."

"Psychotherapy provides an environment where you can learn about yourself and create change in your life. I work to provide a safe, comfortable, and confidential environment for my clients to begin to achieve their goals and to regain a sense of satisfaction with their lives. Through my direct and interactive approach we will work collaboratively to empower you to grow and become more aware."

"I am a psychotherapist treating a wide range of issues and specializing in the treatment of eating disorders including anorexia, bulimia, binge eating and obesity, as well as co-occurring addictions, mood disorders and physical ailments. I help clients gain insight while practicing healthier behaviors to participate in life, cope with feelings, decrease isolation and build relationships. I appreciate the role long-standing eating disordered patterns play in the lives of my clients and their families. I offer a warm, supportive, confidential place where clients learn to expand their lives beyond self-destructive patterns that harm their bodies and hinder relationships."

"I would like to provide you with the help and support needed to make the changes in your life that you deem important. My style of therapy is client centered and collaborative which allows for a unique therapeutic experience."

"I am a Columbia University trained clinical psychologist who specializes in individual and couples therapy in Manhattan. I believe that every client is unique and their treatment should be, too. I work to tailor therapy to each of my clients. My approach is active, thoughtful, collaborative, and compassionate. I strive to help clients learn more about themselves, their relationships, and their pasts, while also offering practical interventions to help manage every day challenges."

"I believe that no universal way of treating people exists. Rather, your cultural identity, personality traits, and presenting issues guide the way that I approach therapy with you. My therapeutic intent is to treat the person not the problem. Therefore, I adhere to a wellness perspective to emphasize strengths and help you develop your sense of self in a collaborative and supportive way."
