As a native New Yorker, I understand the profound impact life experiences can have on our well-being and how this kinetic city shapes our lives. I have questioned: Am I enough? Am I doing enough? I’ve learned that everything that we go through matters, sometimes it’s obvious, sometimes it takes work to reveal. I am here to honor and explore the significance of every step in your process. Your story matters, and I am privileged to work alongside you as you uncover its hidden depths of self-discovery.

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.

Asking for help is not easy, so congratulations on taking the first step toward self-improvement and fulfillment. Through our partnership, I hope to help you better understand yourself in terms of how you function in your personal relationships, and help you see patterns that may be causing distress. My style is one that primarily focuses on empathy and insight. Though talking about issues that come up in therapy may initially be difficult, with time you will notice you are seeing yourself in a new light, and that you are able to accomplish positive change.

In my years of practice I have had the opportunity to work with a broad range of people on a wide range of issues. The skills of the therapist, developed and refined over many years are of importance in the clinical setting. Helping clients access their emotional and cognitive processing is a significant component of the work. I work with individuals, couples and families who feel "stuck" to identify the underlying causes and work towards defining goals that will spell "relief". Collaboration and reinforcement are significant in the process in order to help achieve the goals that are established and help create change.

With each of my clients, I cultivate a compassionate, non-judgmental, and supportive environment. I believe that the therapeutic relationship provides a safe space for identity exploration, so that you can more fully embody your truth in your day-to-day life. While a sense of progress is integral to the therapeutic journey, we will create a personalized understanding of what growth looks like for you, rather than settling for more prescriptive goals. As a relational therapist, I help people foster deeper understanding and self-awareness, overcome unhelpful and defeating patterns, and build self-esteem.

Finding the right therapist is an important factor in achieving your goals and improving your life. My goal as a therapist is to create a safe space for you to discuss and explore any issue you present.

Any form of psychotherapy must be guided by one overarching purpose: to help you achieve your goals. Treatment alleviates distress and results in greater inner strength. Accordingly, therapy must be a constructive experience, and as work proceeds, you'll experience advances in your sense of well-being. On the whole, expect an upward trend of hope and greater self-esteem. Your capacity for intimacy with others and your sense of fulfillment will increase, concomitant with a decrease in suffering and pain. Psychotherapy helps to establish a profound, meaningful and healthy sense of connectedness with your world and those in it.

Perhaps you are in a transitional phase, feeling unsettled, confused, frustrated, lonely or in grief. Or there may be active addiction, disordered eating or body image issues, family stress, estrangement, relational conflicts or infidelity. Or, you are struggling and don't understand why. My professional experience is varied and spans 40 years. However, it is this role as a therapist that blends it together beautifully with my life experience and extensive training to serve my clients. Therapy can be life-changing, and you deserve to thrive, accept what is unchangeable, change what is, and feel at ease with yourself and others.

Life is about connection: to ourselves, our communities, and our relationships. However, with the relentless stress of an increasingly uncertain world, unhealed wounds can be activated, leaving you feeling stuck. Therapy is a useful way to reimagine those connections by exploring, adjusting, and strengthening them. I utilize my background as a performing artist and an integrative approach to help my clients create intimacy in their relationships, implement boundaries, and build resilience. I do this through the use of evidence-based theories, mindfulness, and a playful energy.

I am a caring, compassionate psychotherapist with specialized training and experience in each of these areas. I treat both straight and gay clients, and work with individuals as well as couples.

People seek therapy because they are suffering. Your suffering may take the form of anxiety, depression, grief, or anger. It may stem from questions about relationships, career, sex, or gender-identity. I will not offer you a one-size-fits-all approach to any issue. Instead, I will open up a space that allows you to speak freely about your experience. I will listen intently and without judgment. Together, we will work towards a richer and more joyful life.

Psychotherapy is about transition, you are not necessarily bound by your patterns. It's also about simultaneously addressing symptoms and developing effective and lasting means of combating them. Life stressors, especially during difficult times, challenge us to approach these stressors in more effective ways. We must ask to reconsider ourselves, our behaviors, our responses, and our ability to engage with others.. The practice of psychotherapy is a creative, forward moving, and lasting transition to enhance all areas of one’s life.

Therapy is about listening in-depth - to stories of our past and present, to our emotions, our affects, and our ways of relating. I create a safe space to listen carefully and empathically to help you understand how you have developed into who you are, and what gets in the way in the here and now. There are many ways to do this work. I believe the most important place to start in any modality is by establishing a solid therapeutic alliance. This relationship becomes a vehicle for exploring other ways of relating. I have a particular interest in childhood trauma, attachment, depression, anxiety, and relationship difficulties.

Therapy is about healing and self growth. It is about making decisions and achieving life goals. It is about bettering relationships and building meaningful ties. It's about working through, and living without the pain of loss, depression and anxiety. In an atmosphere of safety, trust and non-judgement, I will help you navigate those difficulties which foster anxiety, depression and confusion, recognizing the often, central role of trauma in such challenges. I will assist in the process of gaining insight, while making decisions which breed personal and professional success. I will help in cultivating and improving relationships.
