Therapists in 10008

Having worked in both programmatic and private practice settings, I bring a breadth of experience to my work with clients. I primarily see adults and adolescents, including couples and families, but am open to referrals of all types.

Having worked in a variety of settings, including 15 years in wilderness therapy, I've found that there is something wonderfully inviting about working together in quiet outside spaces (or utilizing teletherapy in these times of Covid-19). Optimally I help clients utilize their individual strength, values and insight to help find a more peaceful state of mind and lifestyle. As human beings we are meant to build meaningful connections, and sadly there are an overwhelming number of deterrents to building those relationships with self, others, community, etc. We can and will tackle those difficulties together.

My ideal client would be someone is interested to improve his/her thinking, emotional state and general functioning. My ideal client would also be someone who is open and motivated for change and to become the best version him/herself them/themselves.

I am a Marriage and Family Therapist in private practice for over twenty-five years. I specialize in working with couples utilizing a psychoanalytic perspective. Additionally, I work with individuals and groups. Persons struggling with painful feelings such as anxiety, sadness, loss or depression, can be greatly helped by facing what are often experienced as insurmountable obstacles in a safe and secure therapeutic environment.

If you, or someone you love, are struggling with substance abuse, past trauma, relationship or communication setbacks, anxiety and/or depression, it can be overwhelming to fight these feelings alone.

I am a licensed mental health counselor in the state(s) of Florida and NY. I hold a master’s of science in mental health counseling from Touro College and have been working to help better the lives of individuals professionally for the past 8 years. Helping others has always been a passion of mine and I take pride in my ability to do so.
