Do you find yourself dwelling on the past? Is your fear of the future holding you back? Are you wrestling with organizational struggles, losing track of tasks, or anger management?

My goal is to provide you with practical tools and a compassionate space to overcome obstacles. This is the Person Centered Approach.

Comprendre et dépasser l’émotionnel Être psychothérapeute requiert une grande curiosité, un renouvellement permanent des idées et une volonté d’ouverture vers d’autres formes de cure. J’intègre un traitement axé spécifiquement sur l’exploration en profondeur de l’émotion qui inhibe et bloque l’équilibre personnel et familial. Je participe activement pendant les séances tout en respectant les émotions de mes patients sans jugement ni contrainte. Je m’intéresse profondément à la vie de chacun, aux cheminements passés et présents. Nous travaillons ensemble et formant une equipe solide.

Souffrez-vous de dépression ou d’anxiété? Etes-vous dans une situation difficile comme une période de chômage, un changement de carrière? Souffrez-vous d’un deuil qui ne s’améliore pas malgré le temps qui passe? Avez-vous des problèmes relationnels? Etes vous en train de considérer votre “coming out” à votre famille et amis? Venez-vous de réaliser que vous vivez des scénarios qui se répètent comme des cercles vicieux que vous n’arrivez pas à changer malgré le désir de le faire? Commener une thérapie peut vous aider.

Psychothérapeute psychodynamique française à NY. Je travaille avec les adultes ainsi que les enfants/ados. Je suis formée en thérapie pour deuil compliqué et persistant, ainsi que les problèmes de psychologie maternelle: deuil périnatal, dépression, angoisse durant la grossesse et post-partum. Avec les enfants, je travaille principalement sur les troubles du déficit de l'attention, l'anxiété, la régulation émotionnelle et comportementale, le deuil, et les compétences socio-affectives. Ayant vécu dans 4 pays différents, je comprends bien les soucis uniques de la communauté internationale à New York (choc de cultures, etc).

Bonjour. Je suis psychanalyste et psychothérapeute clinicien formé à NPAP et Columbia University. Avant cela, j’ai obtenu un Master de NYU en économie théorique en travaillant sous la direction du collaborateur principal d'un "prix Nobel". Après une quinzaine d’années dans le secteur corporatif, cherchant à me distancer des relations humaines purement transactionnelles que ces structures peuvent engendrer, j’ai débuté ma formation de psychanalyse. Je sais de première main que suive une analyse n’est jamais facile.

How do we know when we're healed, "fixed", back to ourselves? There's a lightening up, a kinder voice in our heads, a bursting generosity and restored sense of purpose. And how does one get there with an integrative therapist? We start with The Here and Now. Forming I Fear/ I Wish statements. Figuring out which Selves survived that little t or Big T trauma. Listing the constricting beliefs of your Inner Critic. Inviting you (and your partner?) to play with new self-talk, role-play, power poses or traditions. Maybe diagramming intergenerational intel to re-write the future.

Do you have dreams for your life? Or have you lost track of them? Don't let anxiety, depression, or family problems stop you. Use the private space of psychotherapy to give yourself a new beginning. Find your way from old problems to new possibilities. Do you have a child who worries you? Come in for parenting help. Or, bring your child in for play therapy, so he or she can deal with challenges in a way that is natural to children. GIve a chance to natural routes to growth and change!

"How many therapists does it take to change a light bulb?"..."One, but the light bulb has to want to change!" My clients share a genuine desire for self-understanding and motivation for change. But my practice is truly diverse: adults of all ages, nationalities,ethnic backgrounds and sexual orientations. In addition to writers, performing and visual artists, I treat professionals, non-professionals, stay-at-home parents and retirees. I work with adult ADD and specialize in life transitions. I work best with clients who want a true therapeutic partner and an interactive approach.

I specialize in women’s mental health and wellness across the lifespan and work with clients on areas such as anxiety, depression, relationship and family issues, work/career identity and balance, stress management, reproductive and perinatal mood and anxiety disorders (PMAD), parenting issues, bereavement, academic challenges and existential issues.

Is anxiety, depression, or anger holding you from enjoying your life? Are having a hard time finding motivation after a breakup or losing a loved one? Are you struggling with your relationships/setting boundaries, or feelings of guilt. As a psychotherapist my work is driven by the deeply held belief that people get better. Every person has the ability to heal, make connections, and deserves healthy relationships. I can guide you through life's challenges with compassion and respect. My style is interactive/engaging and I work collaboratively with you to promote the growth and change you desire.

I have trained and specialize in several modalities such as EMDR, Forensic, DBT, CBT, Family Therapy, Addictions etc. I provide ongoing assessment, diagnosis, psychotherapy and treatment planning to a socio-culturally diverse adult and adolescent population diagnosed with a full-spectrum of psychiatric disorders including bipolar disorder, major depressive disorder, anxiety-related disorders, substance abuse and dependence, PTSD, ADHD, Post-Partum Depression, Trauma related issues, Family and relationship issues etc.

Even when we have received the ideal nurturing, secure, validating childhood, which can help us to negotiate complexities and challenges we may face later in life, our inner resources can become depleted. The capacity to find joy and comfort may elude us. Rebalancing areas of outer life, and planning steps toward change may be in order. I make time to learn about the myriad ways that using art, energetic, somatic and stress reducing therapies can help each person who comes in, to restore their inner lives as well.

I offer a safe, creative and engaging space to nurture your growth. We often work against our emotional selves when trying to accomplish our goals. But you can align your feelings, values and actions to overcome the self-defeating patterns and false assumptions that undermine success. I support clients in developing and realizing their motivation for change, at the pace and in the direction of their choosing. In session you will find a warm, thoughtful and considered presence as you take your next steps.

Welcome! If you are queer, trans, non-binary, questioning, neurodivergent, kinky, poly, or otherwise inclined to defy mainstream narratives of mental health and well-being, then I may be the right fit for you. Amidst the hustle and bustle of the New York metro area, I offer an oasis of compassion, creativity, and self-reflection. I have several years of experience working as a body-neutral and LGBTQ-affirming sex educator, as well as working with queer and trans youth of color. I am especially proud to assist others in dismantling internalized forms of oppression and critically reframing their experiences with radical self-love.

My favorite part of being a therapist is collaborating with folks as they become more and more themselves. So much can get in the way. Layers of protection that dull emotional expression and receptiveness; adaptations to anxiety and trauma that make forward movement hard; difficult relational experiences keeping us stuck in unhelpful patterns; chronic low self-esteem that makes it hard to see ourselves clearly; familial/social/cultural expectations and influences can elicit confusion, and depression can dull connection to everything/anything - to ourselves, as much as to others.

Therapy is about easing suffering, increasing insight and curiosity, and finding meaning. This work is best done in the context of a trusting and strong therapeutic relationship. As a therapist, I strive to form a genuine and unique bond with everyone I work with. I am an active therapist, who aims to be open, non-judgmental, and flexible. Cultural norms, identity and context will deeply inform how we work together.
