You don't have to go through this alone. Though social distancing is incredibly tough, I can help you out of fear and despair to build the resilience you need. I take a person-centered approach- connecting clients to their unique strengths, helping them find clarity and calm. Additionally, I have a strong interest in body image and work/life balance issues as well as a holistic nutrition background. My down-to-earth communication is based in the belief that an honest and intentional therapeutic relationship can be deeply healing.

Finding the right therapist can be a difficult task. My goal is to provide a safe and non-judgmental space for you to share your thoughts and feelings. By listening to and understanding your needs, I will assist in navigating complex issues that are currently preventing you from reaching your goals/ideal self. I have extensive experience in treating adults, adolescents, and children in a variety of settings.

Everyone comes to The Work in their own way, for their own reasons, in their own time. For some, it's a safe space to explore and grow as they need. For others it's a dedicated ear and a mind trained to help them resolve emotional conflicts, stress, anxiety, and depression. Still others long to be seen and embraced (in all of their complexity and nuance). Whatever journey has led you here, my goal is to help you step into the fullness of your Self and live the best life possible. Please note: I work under the supervision of Tracey Post, LCSW (NJ) and Dulcinea Pitagora, LCSW (NY)

Therapy can be life-changing. Through openness and commitment to the therapeutic process, you can increase confidence in overcoming challenges and develop a better connection to yourself and others. I want to help you identify and understand thoughts, emotions, and behaviors that impact your experience with life and work to set reasonable goals to attain.

Therapy is a privileged partnership that is built upon the primary human developmental milestone of trust. This relationship between therapist and patient is crucial to the success of treatment. Therapy is a vehicle to uncover and explore the aspects of life that impede or interfere with one's growth. I believe it is a crucial vehicle in promoting one's sound emotional and psychological health. Whether you are in pain or simply want to learn more about yourself, I am fully committed to my role in this relationship.

I am a psychologist providing therapy and assessment services for children and adults in Westchester County and Manhattan (Midtown East). I have extensive experience utilizing Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and mindfulness, and have been trained by top therapy institutes in the field. I strive to regular advance my knowledge and to provide leading scientifically researched treatments. I specialize in the treatment of anxiety, worry, depression, phobias, panic, OCD, trauma, anger, stress, insomnia, ADHD, defiant behavior, and work/school issues. Many of my clients lead busy lives; therefore, I offer evening appointments.

People are complex, with intricate issues and complicated histories. The ideal client for my virtual private practice is someone who is willing to open up and take the time to explain what makes them “tick”, someone who is ready to take a journey of self-discovery and is interested in finding tangible skills to help them with a variety of needs. Change will not happen in one session, but it can start its course…

Psychotherapy is about freedom: freedom from suffering, freedom to change what is working poorly in one's life, and freedom to develop as an authentic human being. I address patient's difficulties from a number of perspectives: psychodynamic, which provides a way of understanding how people limit their lives in ways they're not aware of, as well as Somatic, which addresses the roots of trauma and emotional conflict as they manifest in bodily experience and symptoms (headache, pain, digestive problems). I also employ more directive coaching methods that are appropriate for workplace issues and conflicts.

I’m a clinical psychologist and I specialize in therapy for adults. If you’re here, I’m guessing it’s because you are struggling with something in your life and feel like you need help. I know how hard it can be to reach out and ask for help, and I’m glad that you’ve made it this far. Therapy doesn’t have to be daunting and mysterious. At the most basic level, therapy is just two people relating with one another in a relaxed, safe, and supportive atmosphere. What makes it different from other relationships is that we keep the focus on you, and I have specialized training that enables me to foster the conditions necessary for change.

There are points in our lives that offer unique opportunities for change and growth. Often these moments are accompanied by painful emotions such as fear, worry, anger, or sadness. This is particularly true in today’s trying times where our familiar routines and usual sources of coping have been disrupted. However, it is precisely these times of struggle that can fuel true personal growth, if you are willing to engage in therapy.

I provide therapy to individuals, couples/intimate partners, and families of all kinds, with a focus on alternative sexualities and lifestyles. I am affirming of LGBTQ/queer identities, kink and D/S lifestyle relationships, sex work, and polyamory/consensual non-monogamy. As a feminist transman, my work is informed by intersectionality and motivated by personal experience with the communities I serve. ​

Are you struggling with managing chronic illness and feeling isolated or stuck? Have you been withdrawing from others, or feeling out of control from worried thoughts? As a licensed clinical social worker, I will work alongside you to support you in working towards addressing areas in your life that have been causing distress. I am a warm, compassionate individual and I know how hard it can be to take the first steps to ask for support. My goal with each individual I work with is to create a trusting environment where you can feel safe to be vulnerable at your own pace, and celebrate alongside you in your successes.

I believe that the client – therapist relationship is the single most important factor for successful treatment. It is my goal to provide a safe space that is non-judgmental, attuned to your needs, engaging and genuinely empathetic. This allows for a trusting and collaborative partnership to explore your thoughts, feelings and patterns of interacting with others.

If you are a creative soul, an artist, a writer, an actor, a performer, or even a unique individual looking to tell your story in this world and are looking for wide ranging help in areas of life and artistic expression I believe you are in the right place. My artwork has been exhibited in New York City, Los Angeles, Seattle and has been featured in a variety of publications. I recently finished a novel and am close to completing a screenplay. Without outlets for artistic expression our light becomes dim. I worked on my undergraduate concentration focusing on the psychology of art and artists.

Healing starts here. I Can Help You Experience Life Differently. Do you feel anxious, depressed, and out of balance in your life and your relationships? Maybe there's a nagging, overwhelming unease that won't go away and you sometimes feel swallowed up by it. How would your life be different if you spoke to a safe, non-judgmental, experienced, therapist? I meet people where they are and work with adults treating a variety of needs. Through deep listening and understanding, we'll explore what's upsetting you and create a plan on what to do about it. Our crisis points are also our turning points. You don't have to do this alone.

I'm a proud queer/pan/poly human, and I absolutely love being a therapist. As a straight-passing queer person, I have a lived understanding of what it’s like to have multiple marginalized identities that are misread both in and outside my communities. As a single parent who was raised in a very religious environment, I have done a lot of my own introspection and exploration to become the sex positive and body positive person I am today. I am a compassionate, non-judgmental, and empowerment-focused therapist. I aim to support you in living freely and authentically, as you thrive in your relationships with yourself and others.

I am committed to providing trauma-informed and compassionate therapy to clients of diverse identities through an anti-racist, queer-affirming, and feminist lens. I believe that healing takes place both individually and within the community. We are not islands. We are porous, interdependent, and impacted by the systems surrounding us. Suffering is inherent to life, and we will never be able to obliterate pain from our experiences. But together, we can cultivate resilience and the capacity to hold those difficult feelings until they inevitably shift.

I'm a licensed psychologist with a private practice in Tribeca, New York City. I was born and raised in Scotland, and have a Ph.D. in Psychology from the University of Glasgow. I came to New York City on a Fulbright Scholarship Grant and studied at Bellevue Hospital and NYU-Medical Center. I then completed the Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy Program at the Contemporary Freudian Society. Presently I am at the NYU Post-Doctoral Program for Psychotherapy and Psychoanalysis. I use Psychodynamic Psychotherapy, particularly Relational Psychotherapy, and I specialize in work with adults with anxiety, depression, loss, and relationship issues.

Turn Transition into Transformation. Are you experiencing a life transition right now? Career change? Divorce? New Baby? Has the context of your life fallen away, leaving you with a sense of feeling lost, stuck, afraid or disempowered? I work with a range of clients who are ready to create massive change in their lives. My work involves building a solid foundation in who you really are so that despite life circumstances, you remain empowered moving through them. I help clients confront and eradicate limiting beliefs, dance with fear and create new patterns that will support a created life.
