I am a clinical psychologist with expertise providing individual and family psychotherapy from an attachment based lens. I love what I do and am passionate about supporting children, families, and adults as they traverse life's challenges. I believe everyone is unique and deserves highly attuned support when life's struggles present themselves. I consider therapy a positive outlet to discuss, explore, and foster new aspects of our lives. I utilize a powerful combination of evidence-based and attachment-focused interventions and work in a collaborative way helping empower individuals and families reach their goals.

Congratulations on taking this step in seeking help and support for yourself or your family. I work with children and adolescents, families, men, and women. My 20-plus years of clinical work with children and families is built on an attachment-oriented foundation and is informed by my personal experience as an adoptive parent and training in relevant play and family therapies. Regardless of a child’s emotional/behavioral presentation or attachment (RAD) history, I view parents as partners in their child’s therapeutic process and support and guide them, in parent sessions and/or in family sessions with their child.

Emily believes in taking a compassionate, holistic, and collaborative approach when supporting individuals throughout their unique journeys. Therapy is a powerful tool that can help you overcome challenges, navigate transitions, achieve your goals, and find fulfillment in life. Emily utilizes strengths-based, solution-focused techniques to help you increase self-awareness and insight, develop coping strategies, and experience positive growth. All strategies are evidence-based and effectively tailored to address each individual’s unique and changing needs.

My patients want to improve their quality of life, work on relationships, career, adjust to life transitions: high school to college, college to work; moving; career shifts; intimacy and commitment; parenthood; relationship choice and dissolution. I work with patients experiencing low self esteem; loss, trauma and grief; maternal adjustment; infertility; eating disorders; mood fluctuations; feelings of aloneness; and a variety of other symptoms that can be self-defeating. My work is different with each patient and always a collaboration with the goal of a better understanding, allowing a more satisfying life.

As a WOC in the LGBTQIA+/kink/poly/consensual relationship community, my approach is anti-racist, anti-oppressive, trauma informed, sex affirming, and abolitionist. My work with queer, transgender/gender non-conforming folx has led to a focus in issues relating to internalized and institutional racism and oppression, sexual identity, trauma, domestic violence, depression, anxiety, disordered eating, relationship issues, and self-esteem. By employing strengths-based, narrative-lead therapy, I will help you to embody being the expert of your experience.

People often come to me during life transitions when they feel anxious, scared and sad. Together we explore and develop more self awareness that leads to greater self acceptance and purposeful decision making. I work with Individuals and Couples to heal from traumas, process grief, work through shame and self judgment, improve relationships, manage career challenges. Additionally I have a special interest in working with parents during postpartum and beyond.

In life, there is no obvious roadmap to finding happiness and satisfaction. The mission of therapy is to explore your inner world so that you can find meaning in the world outside. Our work will be to get you on a path to living a life in which you can be fulfilled and about which you can feel proud. The hardest step to take is the first one into the consulting room, and people often feel tremendous relief when they do. Therapy can be the one place in the world where your issues are front and center, you need not compete with others to be heard, and the only agenda is your self-improvement. If done well, it is life-changing.

I provide a safe therapeutic treatment space for those within and outside the LGBTQ/QI 2-S+ spectrum, GNC/Non-Binary, and BDSM/Kink community. I have extensive experience working with individuals who have been diagnosed as Differently-Abled/Special Needs/ASD/Neuroatypical/ Neurodivergent or with an Intellectual and Emotional Disability.

Are you wanting to restructure your life in a more meaningful way but not sure what your new life can look like? I can assist you.

I believe that the client and therapist relationship is essential to the therapeutic process, so my approach is supportive and collaborative.

I offer empathetic, non-judgmental, and humanistic therapy. I work with couples and families navigating relational conflict. I also work with individuals from across all age groups and cultures on accomplishing their goals, growing to their highest potential, and achieving their authentic self. As an experienced educator for over a decade, I am also interested in continuing to work with teenagers and their families.

I am licensed as a marriage and family therapist in the states of California and New York. I primarily work through telehealth (phone and secure video) with offices available for in-person sessions in both Los Angeles and New York City. Additionally, I provide coaching services for individuals traveling throughout the greater United States and internationally.

The last few years have brought loss and uncertainty for many of us. If you feel stressed, overwhelmed, or just stuck, you're not alone. Sometimes people need extra support and a safe place to let it all out, process what's happened, and reflect on unhelpful patterns and dysfunctional relationships. Maybe you're a people-pleaser and want to set boundaries and learn to say "no." Maybe you're navigating a transition or relationship. Perhaps you tend to spiral. Maybe you just want to better understand yourself. If this sounds like you, I can help.

Welcome! I am a psychotherapist striving to deliver high-quality therapy that is holistic and tailored to you. My priority is providing a safe and comfortable therapeutic relationship. This foundation is the groundwork that allows my clients to take risks in therapy and discuss what is really getting in the way of the life they want to lead. Therapy with me means going beyond the surface of thoughts and behaviors to access underlying emotions that are often at the root of feeling stuck. As an attachment-based therapist, I help my clients explore their relationships and their emotional and behavioral patterns.

My work is compassionate, interactive and decisive, always towards your greater authenticity. We focus on discovering, developing and achieving your goals and on reducing obstacles towards them. We can work quickly in a crisis or explore deeper issues. I love complex issues: the tensions within couples that stunt their intimacy. The challenges of parenting. The lingering sense that you cannot reach some vital aspects of yourself.

For over 20 years , I have been working with Individuals, couples and families to strengthen relationships and create close communicative bonds whether to onesef or others. In my work with individuals I support you to feel a deeper sense of authenticity and clarity. I will assist you to move past limiting beliefs , leading to greater life satisfaction. In my couples practice I strive to help couples recognize and resolve conflicts and patterns that keep them stuck and unfulfilled . When working with Families the relationships are the target of intervention. I support families to understand their dynamic and facilitate cohesion.

Do you feel isolated in emotional pain and confused about how to begin to address it? Do you feel alone and misunderstood in your relationships? I am a licensed psychotherapist and psychoanalyst in private practice for nineteen years. I have worked with a full spectrum of struggles to achieve fulfillment, overcome fears and trauma as well as reaching self-fulfillment and meaning. I have held clinical leadership positions at St. Luke's Hospital in New York and served as Clinical Field Instructor for Columbia University and Clinical Assistant Professor at the University of Miami Department of Psychiatry.

We have immediate openings for in-person and telehealth sessions. You will find the help and support you need to move forward. People come to us confused and distressed by work, relationships, anxiety, depression, loss, trauma, needing help to become un-stuck. Sometimes we are not quite sure what is distressing, we only know we don’t feel right. Talking to the right therapist will help you figure out what you want and how to get it. We tailor our approach to your needs and guide you towards your goals. You can work towards your own fulfillment with guidance and support through growth and change.
