I am a licensed clinical psychologist with a private practice in Manhattan. I meet with adult and adolescent patients for treatment of depression, anxiety, and mood disorders. I am also qualified to work with individuals presenting with addictions and high risk behavior. It is my belief that psychotherapy is a collaborative effort between therapist and patient and that a good match promotes effective treatment.

I am passionate about working with individuals to strengthen their mental health. I often work with clients who are experiencing anxiety and have been impacted by traumatic experiences to gain a better understanding of their inner worlds and find healing. I understand how traumatic experiences can impact our thoughts, feelings and even our physical health in a long-term way. As a therapist and yoga instructor, I bring my insight of the mind-body connection to help clients cultivate a healthier relationship with themselves and draw wisdom from their own emotions.

The most healing aspect of therapy is the unique relationship between a client and therapist. I value the vulnerability and mutual trust created with my clients when they allow me to be a part of their stories. You can expect to leave sessions feeling heard and empowered, with a renewed connection to self and/or the world.

Seeking therapy takes real courage be it your first time or fifth. Relationships change, self-esteem wavers, bodies transform, major life events occur that place us in uncharted waters, life turns inexplicably difficult. Whatever the reason, therapy is a unique opportunity to examine internal and relational conflicts, tease out unhelpful thoughts and deepen your understanding of yourself in ways that foster agency and creativity.

In today's uncertain world people feel upset, angry, frightened about the future and more alone than ever before. If you are in pain - dreading your day, in a relationship that isn't working, retired not knowing what's next, afraid to take risks, grieving loss of someone significant - you don't need to be alone with these experiences. I specialize in Group Therapy. When people work together with others they can develop their capacity to connect, interact and grow closer. I help my clients develop new ways of responding to their life challenges that are intimate, powerful and growthful.

I am a marriage and family therapist trained to work with individuals, couples and families. I have a special interest in working with clients navigating intersecting identities, such as how their immigrant values and western culture interact. I enjoy working with women who find themselves stepping out of boxes and breaking barriers set for them within their intimate relationships, families and society at large. I am also thoroughly delighted to join my clients on their journeys through recovery from religion.

Everyone deals with stress and anxiety in their life – and sometimes it is overwhelming. I help you identify the triggers to these feelings and together we develop coping strategies to improve your personal and professional life. Working as a team we put you in control and provide healing in order for you to live an enjoyable and productive life.

I work with adults to navigate life transitions and manage anxiety, stress, and depression. And as a neurodiversity-affirming therapist, I do not believe such conditions should be “cured.” Instead I treat the stresses that accompany living in an often invalidating or non-accommodating world.

Clients begin therapy to address issues related to relationship problems, anxiety, job issues, social anxiety, low self-esteem, coping with the loss of an important relationship and having to make significant life decisions or life transitions. The therapeutic relationship is paramount to successful therapeutic outcomes To that end, my style of practice is collaborative and supportive. I work to provide an emotionally safe environment to develop trust and relationship. I utilize cognitive behavioral interventions, mindfulness and CBT and specialize in couples work. I am fully trained in Gottman and Couples Institute work.

I believe that depression and anxiety emerge from patterns of emotion, thought, and behavior that we learned in order to survive. So therapy begins with a faith that you came by your struggles honestly, in an effort to protect yourself and make sense of your world. From there, the first step is to recognize how these patterns function now in your life and your mind, and to believe in the possibility that you can feel different--freer, safer, calmer, more lovable.

Sometimes life feels challenging, especially if you feel alone or overwhelmed. The impact of a difficult childhood, complex family dynamics, trauma, a stressful/unsatisfying job or relationship, or the transition to parenting can add additional stressors. Whether your usual coping methods aren't working anymore, or you've noticed repeating patterns that aren't getting you where you'd like to be, we can explore these and any other issues you are facing. Together, we'll improve your ability to articulate your feelings, reflect on your reactions and behaviors, and gain insights that will lead you to a more peaceful and satisfying life.

A major focus of my practice is on coping skills development and mind/body connection. I specialize in trauma, anger management, anxiety disorders, eating disorders, and depression, pain and stress management, conflict resolution, relationship issues, work-related problems. Because of the strong relationship between mind and body, the impact of each on the other, the mind/body connection is integrated into all aspects of interventions. Learn to manage fear, anxiety, stress, loneliness, and depression during today’s challeng times.

There are many ways to process experiences and feelings, not simply limited to talking. Integrating psychotherapy and creative expression can provide a refreshing, insightful, and effective experience in therapy. Some of my areas of focus include trauma, anxiety and depression, stress, loss and life transitions, as well as family and relationship difficulties, among others.

Struggling with personal issues? I provide therapy for adults, children, and families. I understand that everyone wants to be the best they can be. We will navigate the challenges you are experiencing and work to find solutions to manage difficult moments. I provide a warm, safe, nurturing environment while helping you to understand and resolve conflicts within your world. I take a very supportive stance and realize that getting help is the first part of making a change.

As far back as I can remember I've always had an innate desire to help others and see their needs while being both patient and positive. This led me to a career in therapy and early on in this career I was fascinated with seeing the power of exposing people's inner strengths, allowing them a safe place to vent and work on coping skills. After a few years I continued to have a lingering feeling like I could be doing more for my clients. This led me to combine these existing techniques with a new theory called Emergence.

Therapy is a commitment one makes to oneself. It is a unique and creative process dedicated to self reflection and self discovery. Together we can explore a wide range of issues, chronic patterns, and challenging life events. We will listen to symptoms as messengers - expressing something of the greater self that needs to be understood and attended to. The goal is to relieve emotional distress and suffering; to make space for your thoughts, feelings, and experiences, and to gain greater understanding about your inner workings, your relationship to yourself and others, and how you want to live into your life.

“And you? When will you begin that long journey into yourself?” - Rumi Somewhere under all of your life’s layers, trauma and many responsibilities lie an undiscovered you. Life often presents us with transition or even crises that force us into rediscovery. Are you ready? My name is Piaget, and I would like to partner with you along your new journey. As a licensed therapist, I am purposed and committed to provide a secure yet unbounded space where we explore your past, present, and everything in between at the right pace.
