"If you want to solve your personal problems, control your headaches, or other symptoms of stress, anxiety or depression, deal more effectively with your loved ones, friends and coworkers, then I would like to help. If you are self-motivated, sensitive, desire to improve yourself,and value personal responsibility, then I believe you are well suited to the type of help provide. If you not interested in clever explanations that only allow you to blame others, and do not lead you to a happier, more enlightened and effective life, then we are already on the same wavelength."

"My passion and focus is working with adults, adolescents, and families experiencing distress in their relationships and/or symptoms of depression and anxiety. I approach my work with clients from a place of genuine curiosity and understanding. I aim to provide a safe space where we can discuss the challenges getting in the way of achieving your goals and create a sustainable support system for lasting change in your life. I pride myself on being transparent during the process and an active participant in session."

"Every person who chooses therapy does so for a unique combination of reasons, as my patients have revealed to me in twenty years of private practice. No one fits into simple categories, teens especially. Some are impacted by events long ago, others by recent setbacks, while most are triggered by a combination of influences known and unknown. Working with children and adolescents, I understand these manifold pressures are sometimes accompanied by resistance to change, thereby limiting the otherwise positive support offered by family and friends. That’s when I can help."

"I believe in a holistic and mindful approach, working actively with my clients to understand the unique relationship between mind and body, as well as relationships with others. I work with individuals, couples, and families who want to make changes in their lives yet struggle due to fears, lack of support and/or confidence, or mistrust. Typical areas of my work include life transitions within familial and/or romantic/marital relationships, professional career changes, and anxiety, depression, and fear of change. I help clients overcome emotional blockages and gain a sense of confidence in themselves and their ability to make changes in their lives."

"There are many reasons why we seek therapy; and they differ in terms of how problems and circumstances influence our lives. I work with adults, teens, and couples seeking relief from anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, relationship issues, poor self-assertion skills, identity issues, and life stressors (such as death of a loved one, divorce, job loss, career change). I also work with college students in NYC living away from family and support; young adults launching into adulthood in NYC; and helping couples find solutions to problems in an otherwise satisfying relationships. Out-of-network reimbursement options are available."

"The kind of therapy I practice seeks to understand the more deeply rooted patterns in life that may be out of our awareness but may be responsible for our feeling out of sorts, struggling in our relationships, and being dissatisfied with our lives. We develop a sense of ourselves over time through our relationships and we often carry old wounds that color how we feel about ourselves and drive us to repeat unhealthy patterns in current relationships."

"I am a licensed psychologist in New York State. I maintain a clinical practice on the Upper East Side of Manhattan providing psychotherapy to individuals experiencing academic and vocational difficulties. I use a treatment modality that integrates psychotherapy with cognitive remediation and special education tutoring services. I take into account individuals' neuropsychological profiles in order to capitalize on their strengths that, when tapped, can help overcome areas of weakness."

"My concern as a psychotherapist is establishing trust and security between my patient and myself. I treat the patient's symptoms with attention to symptom origins, and work to change character and personality traits that impair relationships and achievement: trust, attachment, healthy dependency and assertiveness. I treat adolescents and adults."

"Finding a good fit is very important, however, going through profiles, you may not be entirely sure what you're looking for. I recognize how difficult the first step can be and I see your willingness to stick your neck out as gutsy as well as a sign of strength and resilience for which we will build upon. Good therapy reaffirms life,helps you tap into joy & find meaning and pleasure in life, it improves your relationships, and strengthens your self esteem. "

"Over the past 20 years as a clinical therapist and nutritionist, my focus has been helping individuals achieve their optimal health. I don’t believe in a “one size fits all” nutrition plan. Instead, I work with clients one-on-one, supporting them as they make positive changes based on lifestyle and food preferences. I use a personalized, holistic approach that is unique to each client. "

"You deserve to feel well; Let's get you there. Our work together is designed to cultivate greater contentment in your life. We all experience challenge, often around our relationships, our work, our health, and caring for our children and loved ones. These experiences can provoke anxiety, fear and uncertainty. Having a safe, nonjudgmental space in which to work through these moments can be profoundly helpful and can often facilitate swifter resolution. "

"I believe that no one should face difficult times alone. The emotional pain of depression, anxiety, stress, or relationship issues might have left you lonely and isolated at the time when human contact is needed most. Opening up to your friends or family can be hard. By being warm, empathic, and non-judgmental, I provide a safe space where you can express yourself and feel seen and understood. This work can help you heal, get to know yourself better, find the strength to face challenges, and ultimately lead a more aware, fulfilling life."

Treatment areas include anxiety, depression, adjustment and relationship issues.

My practice is devoted to developing, in a confidential setting, the tools needed to lead a rewarding life. I have over 25 years' experience treating individuals and couples. I offer both traditional psychotherapy and executive coaching for Fortune 500 companies."

"I believe that we are all unique and different in our own ways and that there is not a "one size fits all" approach to therapy. As a therapist, I am responsible for providing my clients with an environment that feels safe, comfortable, and free of judgment. I know that it can often feel overwhelming to know where to start when you decide to see a therapist. What you are dealing with today, in the present, can be the best place to start."

"I am an analytically and EMDR trained psychotherapist. Having practiced more than 20 years in NYC, I work primarily with adults and adolescents suffering not only from depression and anxiety but also a wide range of issues arising from personal relationships, career challenges, and life transitions. These conditions often are very treatable and progress is fairly rapid. "
