Are you overthinking instead of enjoying your life? Do you often feel misunderstood or disconnected from friends or loved ones? Does advice from others seem unhelpful or useless? Sometimes we notice we have become too hard on ourselves or others. We may notice an increasing sense of lonliness and begin to lose of sight of what is truly important. Do you ever wish you could just sit down with someone and sort it all out?

My clients come into the office knowing one thing- they want a change. Often having an idea of exactly what it is that needs to change, and sometimes just knowing that 'it doesn't feel right'. I help my clients understand that each behavior is understood given the context that surrounds it. We will focus on the things that are not that obvious, perhaps it's the mere emotion that is motivating the behavior. Other times we might need to dig a little deeper. Together we work towards the same end goal: transformation.

It's a very human thing to encounter a challenge that's difficult to overcome on our own. Maybe that challenge shows up as anxiety that won't quiet down, or a depression that's made it hard to feel like yourself. Perhaps it's been a situation that has significantly impacted your life in a negative way, and as a person who wears many hats, all those parts of your life seem to suffer because of it.

Most of my patients are doing well by most measures. They're accomplished, capable, and have built something real — professionally, personally, or both. What brings them to therapy isn't a crisis. It's the quieter recognition that performing at a high level for a long time has a cost, and that they haven't had a space to reckon with that cost honestly.
I work with high-achieving adults executives, physicians, attorneys, entrepreneurs — who are navigating burnout, identity questions, relational strain, and the particular kind of exhaustion that doesn't show up on a performance review.

Stress and anxiety about identity confusion (who am I?), pushing down or avoiding your feelings, and complicated self-worth (your value feeling tied to performance, others’ opinions, or never quite feeling “enough”) are where I love to work. Even when you’re managing to make it through each day, there can be a constant sense of pressure, overwhelm, or disconnection that’s hard to name or slow down. I’d like to offer you a space to step out of holding it all together and begin understanding what’s happening underneath the surface so you can feel more grounded, clear, and connected to yourself again.

I am a Ph.D. Clinical Psychologist in the Heights for 20+ years, trained in cognitive-behavioral & psycho-dynamic approaches. If a deeper understanding of a problem is desired, a psycho-dynamic approach focuses on understanding past family and relationships and patterns allowing for self-growth. In practical issues of changing behavior and/or learning a new approach, a cognitive behavioral approach assesses desired behavior changes, obstacles and strengths to obtain goals. In both approaches, I ask questions in a safe and cooperative style that allows for new perspectives and growth. This is especially helpful in couples therapy.
