When conducting neuropsychological testing, my mission is to provide a warm and caring environment and to see the complete person so that you leave feeling like you have been heard. As a trained neuropsychologist I understand neurological and neurodevelopmental disorders, as well as attention and learning difficulties and how they affect abilities. Psychological/neuropsychological evaluations include assessment of all brain functioning, academic performance, language, and social/emotional development. My aim is to help determine how you or your child are functioning now and how to best help you move forward.

I am a Manhattan-based psychotherapist with more than two decades of experience working with adults, adolescents, children and their families. I have a strong passion and commitment to helping my patients improve the quality of their lives. I am trained in psychodynamic psychotherapy with training in play therapy, hypnotherapy and cognitive behavioral strategies. I provide compassionate care creating a hopeful and productive therapeutic environment and believe a good match between the therapist and patient is vital. My style is interactive and pragmatic. I help patients deepen their self-awareness, identify their concerns and establish realistic goals for therapy.

As a therapist with a disability, I have a deep appreciation for life's challenges, pain, loss and suffering. I have learned the art of "transforming obstacles into opportunities," with the help of my guide dog Faith, as she literally guides me around obstacles, and has enhanced my life, turning around an otherwise insurmountable feat. Decades of clinical and life experience, keen intuition, along with compassion and a holistic, evidenced-based approach, and a sense of humor, are some of the key ingredients leading my clients towards feeling better, finding direction and actualizing potential.

My approach to therapy is to create a safe, supportive environment for my clients. We will work together to help improve your emotional well being through analytic work and building healthy coping techniques. We will collaboratively build a unique treatment plans specific to your needs.

I believe that healing and growth are part of our human experience. Our anxiety, depression and trauma often times are some of  the barriers that prevent us from achieving these goals. Are you struggling with anxiety, depression, life transitions and/or trauma? Let’s meet and figure out what you need in order to cope better with these challenges. I hope that with our work together & emotional support, you will be able to conquer these obstacles and live a life full of healing and growth. As a therapist, I provide a safe space for clients to engage in the process of self-discovery while providing structure for change to take place.
