With over 20 years of experience as a psychotherapist and clinic director/supervisor in a variety of clinics throughout the New York area, I bring a wealth of expertise in helping individuals navigate life's challenges. I specialize in working with adults, adolescents, and parents dealing with issues such as depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, life transitions, chronic illness, and relationship difficulties, among others.
My approach to therapy is collaborative, direct, and psychodynamic, which means that together, we will explore your personal development, resilience, healing, and the achievement of your goals. I take a strengths-based, person-centered approach, tailoring treatment to your unique needs by integrating a variety of modalities like CBT and TFCBT to name a few.
When considering a therapist it is vital that you feel comfortable with your practitioner. I offer a 15 minute complementary consultation to provide an opportunity for you to engage, assess potential treatment options, and determine if working together will be a good fit. I provide a calming and affirming environment in which you are free to share.
