Hi, I’m Richard! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in New York City. I specialize working with teenagers, college-aged students, young adults, and families. I primarily use therapeutic techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) and Strengths- Based Therapy to help engage and support my clients through emotional adversity. My clients typically are working through life transitions, anxiety, depression, trauma, or struggling to find a sense of self.

I strive to create a therapeutic process that addresses your difficulties in daily life and simultaneously explores deeper experiences that underlie these issues so that you can make meaning of your life and feel in control. Using an integrative approach, I individualize treatment based on your needs and work with you to create real improvements in your life. I aim to establish a supportive and non-judgmental approach but am not afraid to help you maintain accountability and actualize your greatest potential.

I am a clinical psychologist providing therapy and assessment services in Scarsdale and Greenwich. I treat various conditions, such as depression, anxiety, behavioral problems, social anxiety, and school/work issues. I also focus on life transitions, whether that be a recent move, transition from college, changes in family dynamics, or changes in significant relationships. Furthermore, I have extensive experience in conducting psychological assessments. Therapeutically, I focus on developing teens and adults, where as I provide assessments for all ages.

I am a practicing clinician of over 20 years offering psychodynamic and cognitive-behavior psychotherapy to adults. CBT focuses on the development of concrete problem-solving techniques and is often ideal for problems that are highly acute and/or relatively circumscribed. Psychodynamic therapy examines emotional conflicts in relation to broader aspects of one's personality and life history. Its objective is to help individuals identify and overcome fears which may be unconscious and sometimes counter-intuitive. I also sometimes borrow concepts from meditation as well as sports psychology.

When difficult personal and family issues occur, working with a well-trained therapist can be very helpful. I am an experienced clinician with a genuine interest in the well-being of my clients. My background as a pediatrician, combined with extensive training in psychotherapy, including psychoanalytic psychotherapy, Play Therapy, and CBT enable me to look at the “whole” person who comes to me, taking into account family dynamics, development, temperament, as well as health related factors. My clients range in age from children to adolescents to older adults.

If you are frustrated and unhappy in your relationships, your career or within yourself, I can help you identify the conflicts that keep you from moving forward in life. Working together, you will gain a better understanding of who you are, where you want to go, and how to get there. I specialize in treating adults and couples with insight-oriented psychotherapy and also offer targeted stress reduction strategies such as breathwork and meditation to ease anxiety and improve overall wellbeing.

My approach to therapy is most informed by cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, interpersonal psychotherapy and narrative therapy. In our work together I hope to help you make change in your life and manage struggles such as depression, anxiety, stress, trauma and coping with life changes. In my practice, I am experienced working with children and parents, adolescents and adults. All sessions are currently telehealth with some in-person hours for children or vaccinated individuals beginning October 2021.

I specialize in treating teenagers, young adults, and adults. These transition periods can be difficult and often times misunderstood. The associated changes with any transition bring instability as the person passes through important periods of development. During this period, the person is typically required to make adjustments; however these adjustments are sometimes affected with negative and irrational thoughts. I believe that my specialized training and years of experience make me highly qualified to help with conflict that may come with this transition as they may indirectly affect school, career choice, and relationship.

I work with clients to help them regain a strong sense of self trust and personal freedom, which has often been ruptured as a result of enduring life traumas. Clients are presented with a compassionate environment to express their vulnerability and most authentic self, without judgement. As an interactive and holistic therapist, I aim to bring both humanistic and empowering energies into sessions to foster an optimal healing space. Whether you are needing emotional support while navigating a period of transition, struggling with personal relationships, or seeking deeper insight into self, therapy can help.

I know it can be difficult to make the informed decision to start therapy. The idea of unpacking our thoughts, feelings, behaviors and emotions can feel overwhelming and intimidating.

Do you find yourself doubting your ability? Are you and your family/partner interested in building healthier ways to communicate? Are you ready to heal from the things that you have been afraid to talk about? James Baldwin once said, "Not everything that is faced can be changed, but nothing can be changed until it is faced." This quote is the essence of therapy, facing difficult obstacles and experiences in hopes with exploration and work things will change.
