"I've worked in the field of Social Work for fifteen years and I have helped many individuals to overcome barriers affecting their lives. I'm a certified Clinical Social Worker with advanced clinical training in Psychodynamic Psychotherapy. I believe that therapy is a personal, challenging, and reflective experience. I use a variety of approaches tailored to each unique person I work with depending on their character and comfort level. The ultimate goal of your therapy experience could be to achieve greater self-awareness, an increased satisfaction in your relationships, and greater emotional comfort and stability."

"It's exciting when you feel understood, or when you are able to face something that you thought was unbearable. These transformed states can lead to a stronger sense of identity; increased capacity for connectedness to others; more satisfying work and less ambivalence in general about moving forward in your life, whatever direction that may take."

"I am a licensed clinical psychologist and a NYS Credentialed Substance Use Counselor. I see adults of all ages in a comfortable, private and safe setting on the Upper West Side. I think dynamically, but work eclectically. I coach behavioral changes while exploring beliefs, reactions and motivations so you understand yourself better and enhance your options in living. I deeply believe that the more we understand ourselves and our motivations, the greater will be our power to take control of things that previously seemed inevitable."

"I am a clinical psychologist based in Manhattan and Westchester, New York. I have twenty-five years of experience in the field, and work now in private practice with adults in individual and couples psychotherapy. I specialize in the treatment of anxiety disorders, depression, and relationship difficulties, though I have seen and helped a very diverse group of people over the years, many of whom presented with problems that did not fit neatly into any diagnostic category."

"My goal is to work towards understanding where your difficulties are coming from, and help dissipate the problems of living to help you grow. My training is in individual, couples and family therapy, and I now accumulate years of advanced postgraduate training. I am also experienced in child and adolescent psychotherapy, and have published material in the field."

"Something feeling not quite right? Hard to put your finger on? Or is it something obvious, but you feel stuck in effecting change? Whatever your particular reason for reading this page, I want to know. I want to listen to all you have to say about what is bothering you, your life, your challenges, your successes. Together we can help you understand what if any changes you want to make. I look forward to meeting you."

"I have worked for over 20 years in this field treating many levels of problems and have learned that each person is unique and requires therapy that fits their individual needs. Therapy focuses on the client's goals and a plan is worked on how to best achieve the desired results."

"Do stress, anxiety, or mental health issues affect your daily functioning, self-esteem or well-being? Occupational therapy is a holistic, evidence-based profession that helps people assess their daily activities, optimize performance, and take action to build a life of purpose and meaning. With an educational and action-oriented focus in the here-and-now, you will learn specific self-care and coping skills that can help you set more impactful goals, develop an effective wellness plan, counter negative thinking, and become better able to access support resources in the community."

"Therapy with me offers a reflective space that invites you to explore and get to know aspects of yourself that are hard to reach when alone. Within an empathic and interactive psychotherapy relationship, we explore internal and external spheres of experience including feelings, thoughts, actions, and inactions. This process paves the road for a more meaningful life and greater self-understanding, which helps one break out of harmful patterns. Along the way, we also identify and utilize coping skills that will help you to reduce depression, anxiety and other troubling symptoms."

"I have been working with clients in psychotherapy for over 25 years. I have also been hired to supervise and consult with fellow clinicians for over 10 years. My work is about helping people find creative ways to approach growth and change in real time. For many people, change feels anxiety provoking. Some become stuck or paralyzed in the face of moving forward. With authentic dialogue and feedback, clients move slowly away from anxiety with new skills, and towards faith in oneself."

"I'm a clinical psychologist with over 20 years experience working with people who have anxiety, depression, inconsistent work performance, or a general dissatisfaction with their relationships or their lives. My practice emphasizes evidence-based treatment approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR). I also have extensive experience tailoring these approaches to meet the specific needs of professional performers (actors, athletes, business people), stepfamilies, and people with serious medical conditions."

"I am a warm caring psychotherapist with a direct approach with over 30 years of experience treating adults, adolescents and children.

My specialties include eating problems, with an emphasis on binge eating, obesity, and anorexia. In addition depression and anxiety, grief counseling, women's issues, interpersonal relationships as well as transitions through divorce for individuals, parents and children."

"I believe strongly in the positive effects of therapy at any stage of life. Therapy is an amazing healing experience. It provides the opportunity to discuss, relate and unburdan oneself in a confidential, non-judgmental and relaxed environment. While we can't change difficult situations in the past, we can work together to better understand and resolve challenges in your life. My goal is to help you uncover your true potential and lead a life that is worth celebrating."

"I am here to help. My clients often feel they are not maximizing their potential, despite others believing they have it all under control. My philosophy is rooted in cultivating meaningful relationships, developing awareness and challenging assumptions. Specialties include relationships, stress, executive coaching, the creative process, empowerment and the LGBT community. I believe in working co-actively. As your therapist, I help you close the gap between where you are and where you want to be. I hold you accountable to what you say is important to you. I support. I challenge. I cheerlead. I give you the honest truth."

"Therapeutic change requires a trusting relationship within which thoughts and feelings can be expressed and explored freely. As a seasoned therapist, I believe that the crises that bring us to the first therapy appointment can be the beginning of a process of self-exploration that leads to greater self-understanding and more effective problem solving. As we sit together, I help you reflect on what is going on in the present and how you got there. I pay close attention to patterns and themes that emerge and help you organize these so you can develop a narrative of your life that makes sense to you."
