"Trained in dialectical behavior treatment and cognitive behavior treatment, I am a compassionate, experienced, and skilled social worker who has held many senior clinical management positions. Me and my four associates are eager to collaborate and work with clients who struggle with depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, trauma, relationship issues, employment issues, anger management, and addictions. In a focused and direct manner, we are able to address immediate concerns and symptoms, as well as to deeply explore unresolved childhood issues, emotions, and traumas. Together, with the client, we will exercise coping skills to empower them to take control of their life."

"Many people choose to begin therapy because they want to feel better, be more successful at work, or have better relationships. Psychotherapy can be helpful in addressing the emotional or sometimes even physical pain that can get in the way of such goals. The kind of psychotherapy that I practice involves careful listening and exploration of one's difficulties and how those difficulties tend to repeat or consistently present in a variety of contexts. I work with clients that appreciate that lasting change is indeed possible, and have the courage to forgo the false promise of a "quick fix"."

"From the outside looking in you’ve got it all together. Yes, you are juggling a lot- you are a parent, partner, friend. But everyone’s busy, right? On the inside, though, you are really struggling. You know the kind of person you want to be, but you don’t know how to be that person. You don’t trust your instincts and you second-guess your decisions. You feel reactive, impatient, and emotionally shut down in your relationships. You recognize that old, deep wounds are saying hello, but you don’t know how to manage everything and still give yourself the compassion you need to stay afloat. You are overwhelmed and overall exhausted. "

"I am a road-tested professional coach who has specialized in addressing career and workplace problems for over 20 years in healthcare, non-profit, entertainment and corporate settings. I work with highly valued employees and leaders who are struggling in key areas of their careers due to interpersonal and organizational issues. All of the work I do is in the service of helping my clients change patterns of behavior that are undermining their success. I coach my clients to practice emotional intelligence and ask them to take responsibility for changing those aspects of their work style that have been holding them back. "

""Health is a state of complete harmony of the body, mind and spirit." ~B.K.S. Iyengar * * * A healthy mind is just as important as a healthy body and a healthy soul. My goal is to partner with you in looking at your life-story, and identifying and overcoming the blockages to a peaceful way of being. Psychotherapy is a wonderful opportunity to find balance and restore a sense of wholeness and perspective on our purpose in life. I provide a safe, supportive and non-judgmental space in my practice for this to occur."

"My goal is to arm you with tools to find a more fulfilling way of living; therapeutic tools that follow you out of my office door and into your life. I have learned firsthand how a strong therapeutic relationship can create an opportunity for transformative change. That is why the alliance between therapist and client is of utmost importance to me. By integrating clinical theory, mindfulness, and yes, even humor, I help clients cultivate insight, self-acceptance, healthy boundaries, increased intimacy, and clarity of direction allowing depression, anxiety, and relationship problems to be relieved."

"We generally begin psychotherapy in order to reduce suffering in our lives. As a Jungian analyst, my approach seeks to reduce suffering and promote healing by endeavoring to understand what the meaning of our symptoms are and how, through our symptoms and difficulties, we can be led to experience more satisfaction, creativity and joy in our lives. This approach not only asks "how can I meet life's demands?" but "how can I live a life that fully expresses who I am?" It asks, "Who am I at the deepest level?""

"Therapy is your time, a comfortable, protected space set aside for you to slow down and focus on the things in your life that deserve your attention. My role as a therapist is to help clients identify goals and build positive change in their lives with compassion and understanding. Whether you want to improve the ways in which you manage the stress in your life or desire a deeper understanding of difficult emotions, I offer treatment for a variety of concerns relating to anxiety, depression, relationships, identity issues, life transitions, bicultural issues, race, sexuality, addictions, multicultural family issues, work-stress, learning disabilities and personality disorders."

"I practice from the belief that when we understand why we want, act or feel a certain way, we are more equipped to manage our feelings, make changes in our circumstances, and move in the direction of happy, full lives. I help clients unearth what they want — whether that be a romantic partner, a new career path, or self-love — and how to get it. I work with college students and young adults coping with the challenges of adulthood, creative artists seeking creative solutions, and people of all ages embarking on life transitions, exploring family dynamics, working through relationship issues, and navigating identity concerns."

"Working with individuals and couples for over twenty years, I've found that depression, anxiety, and low self-esteem can be healed. When conflicts and repetitive behaviors block our growth and prevent us from reaching our potential, depression, anxiety and self-sabotage can interfere with satisfaction in relationships, work and in attaining self fulfillment."

"I work with individuals in a supportive and creative environment to open dialogue and explore life's challenges. The opportunity to engage in verbal or non-verbal expression can support to reframe the past, their thoughts, emotions, life patterns, and to discover a deeper awareness of themselves."

"I am not taking new clients now. I love the wisdom of the E. M. Forster character who says "only connect." Relationships are what humans do. But connections between humans are often difficult, especially during life transitions, whether "normal" ones, like deciding to live together or marry, having children, kids leaving home, retirement, or the arrival of grandchildren, or more painful and unexpected ones like losing a job or losing a loved one. Relationships change over time. Whether between spouses, adult siblings or parents and developing children, change is unsettling. I collaborate with couples to generate practical strategies, strengthen connections and deepen understanding."

"The foundation for health and happiness lies in self-esteem. I believe that healing comes from within, and quality of life improves as we learn how to care for and care about ourselves. All of the tools we need to ground, grow, and flourish are ones we already possess. I hope to be a guide & support in the process of discovering & strengthening your ability to be your best self. Specializing in the treatment of eating disorders, trauma, emotion dysregulation, & other co-occurring disorders, I believe that everyone has the potential to heal from past wounds & face present and future stresses."

"You've come a long way, baby. You're doing it. You're killing it at work or at school. You always have. But somehow, those old ways of thinking and feeling about yourself have followed. At work, and with your friends, it looks like you have it all together. If anything, you're the first to lend a hand to others, even when you are completely running on empty. But something is missing, and its gnawing at you. You don't know what you want or need most of the time. We can figure that out together."

"I am a psychotherapist with over 15 years of experience in the mental health field. I provide services to adults, couples and adolescents. I specialize in treating depression, anxiety, PTSD/trauma, addiction and severe mental illnesses such as bi-polar disorder and schizophrenia. I address a wide range of life challenges including destructive relationships, serious illness and job stress. My approach to treatment begins with providing a comfortable environment. To help you feel comfortable, I like to go at your own pace and work on whatever you want to work on."

"I approach therapy from the perspective that we all have inner wisdom, courage, and resilience. Sometimes, however, these strengths are blocked, forgotten, or have been inaccessible to you. I encourage you to become compassionately curious about yourself so that you can develop insight into these block and plans of action to overcome them. I work from a "strength-based" perspective which encourages you to focus and hone in on your strengths, while carefully and objectively addressing and confronting the factors keeping you from living a full, authentic, peaceful, inspired, and empowered life."

"I've been a practicing psychotherapist in the New York City metropolitan area for over 20 years. Most of my clients are adults with relationship problems, work issues, anxiety or depression. My approach to therapy is generally a psychodynamic one with a focus on the here and now. I also use mindfulness, hypnosis, ego state therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy as tools in treatment. I have found that this eclectic approach is helpful to clients as one size does not fit all."

"You're smart, you work hard, and you have plenty going for you. But you still feel your life isn't where you want it to be. You're distressed by difficult thoughts and feelings. You want to change but you're not sure how. With the help of a compassionate psychotherapist, you can find your way out. My goal is to help you find creative solutions to troublesome feelings, unproductive behaviors, and unsatisfying relationships. We will build a therapeutic relationship rooted in empathy and authenticity and we'll discover what's blocking you from reaching your goals."

"I believe that change and healing come through relationships; our relationship with self as well as our relationships with others. It is because of this belief that I approach my work as a collaborative venture that requires large amounts of both compassion and curiosity. It is my goal to create an atmosphere where these qualities can be nurtured and to provide the individual with the support and space to reflect on old patterns of behavior and the opportunity to respond in new ways that allow for a more fully realized and authentic way of living."
