I treat a broad array of diagnostic categories that is centered on treating the whole person. Areas of expertise include individual and couples therapy, parent/child, challenges from physical illness, coworker relationships and conflict resolution. Treatment areas include anxiety, depression, adjustment and relationship issues.

I offer both traditional psychotherapy and executive coaching for Fortune 500 companies.

I've been a therapist for over 25 years, and provide a compassionate environment in which we explore your struggles. I am very interactive and flexible, and often focus on helping you get in touch with your inner feelings and build self esteem. Our goal is to help you feel good enough to exit therapy and lead the life you want. Most issues, including anxiety and depression, are very treatable. I have always considered therapy a partnership in which we work together.

The core of my practice revolves around the reality that starting, growing and managing a family can present a multitude of challenges, and that therapy can help both individuals and families develop strategies to not only cope with difficulties, but also learn to thrive. Across the life span, my expertise with issues such as attachment, depression, anxiety, trauma, and interpersonal relationships in both individual and family therapy enables my patients to identify underlying patterns, navigate transitions, and craft more satisfying experiences.

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.

Deciding to seek help from a psychologist is an important step in the life of an individual or couple.

Our work together will help you live a more fulfilled life.

Whether it's individual, couples, or group therapy, I strive to be a therapist who is challenging and direct without being judgmental; is open-minded and encouraging of my clients to explore options in their lives that may be different than my own or others around them. I am someone who doesn't rush to diagnose and pathologize, but rather to understand. And specifically and most importantly, I have a keen understanding of the intricacies of intimacy and sexuality within relationship to oneself and community.

Life is hard. And, sometimes we lose our bearings along the way. There are times when the usual answers aren't enough and we must turn inward to search more deeply for the source of the patterns that keep us stuck and that make us suffer more than we need to. The path out of our darkness requires leaning into it rather than running from it. It requires going through it and doing the work that can lead us to the other side--to a more authentic and fulfilling life.

As a certified recovery coach, I work with clients who seek to change habits and gain clarity. My approach to sobriety includes providing education, support and integration of tools which aid a client's physical and emotional well-being. While addressing triggers, we work together to learn how to manage the stressors of a newly sober life. Together, we identify your inherent strengths and goals to think creatively and overcome barriers that keep you stuck.

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.

I combine compassionate care with evidence-based therapies to enable you to set and meet goals, feel better, and live the life you want and deserve.

Some of my clients only require a few sessions while others may benefit from longer-term counseling. I offer video therapy to patients using a secure video chat platform. This allows you to see a therapist from the comfort and convenience of your own home. When I'm not seeing patients, I am a professor at Rutgers.

I aspire to create a space that is welcoming, safe and comfortable. My style is non-judgmental, empathic and introspective. My goal is to help you learn about yourself and how you relate to others so that you can make positive improvements that are lasting.

In therapy, issues to be resolved will be addressed with the idea that self-awareness leads to choice, responsibility and change.
