I serve individual adults as a CERTIFIED JUNGIAN ANALYST sensitive to injustice and cruelty within one’s society, work setting, family and/or partnership, and especially within one’s own psyche. This covers your concerns about mood, relationships, sex and sexuality, creativity issues, compulsions, coping with change or loss, lack of passion, disorganization, or effects of neglect, abuse or trauma. We would aim at your gaining greater clarity and self-acceptance and living authentically and more fully. We might explore dreams, fantasies and whatever else your soul expresses, applying courage, honesty, humility and imagination.

Acknowledging that you or your child need support is the first step in the therapeutic process. Due to the complex nature of the relationships in your life, it is helpful have a neutral person to offer a listening ear, guidance, and insight through a tough time. My goal is to support you, your child, and/or your family in your process. I can help you in identifying and regulating emotions, stopping negative thoughts, overcoming challenges, strengthening relationships and utilizing healthy coping skills. Together we will work on self-discovery, increased happiness, confidence, healing and resilience.

I have been a Licensed Clinical Social Worker for the past 9 years, working with individuals and couples in a clinical setting, as well as private psychotherapy. I believe that every person can reach their potential, strive towards their goals, heal from their past and obtain happiness by learning how to be present in their lives; while learning how to be insightful about oneself and gain empowerment.

We all have the fundamental need to grow into and express who we are meant to be. However, this natural process can be inhibited by our need to adapt to pressures of family and society, by trauma, or by seemingly unresolvable contradictions in our personality. The goal of therapy is to bring this latent process to life, and to make it more conscious. A good therapeutic relationship will help you to be more receptive to yourself and to notice and honor these inner workings.

Having trouble finding your "why"? I am here to guide you through these complexities and incorporate your mind, body and spirit to produce positive and lasting changes. I believe in the powerful reciprocity of the mind and body connection. Health and wellness are the pillars to success and growth, and we are able to move through each phase of this journey together. To meet each clients' unique needs, I enjoy using walks and hikes as a way to engage and communicate, and I always make humor and comfortability a priority. You are the boss and in control of the progress we make together. Virtual and in person sessions available.

I provide trauma-focused individual therapy to adults (ages 18 an up) who struggle with anxiety, depression, panic, trust/abandonment issues, intimacy dysfunction, and self harming behavior.

"Transformation is a process, and as life happens there are tons of up and downs. It's a journey of discovery - there are moments on mountaintops and moments in deep valleys of despair"- Rick Warren. We all struggle with past or present situations that can get in the way of us living our lives wholeheartedly and that have an impact on the connection with oneself and others. Whenever you are going through a difficult time and you are confused about what is your next step, connecting with a trained therapist can be very helpful.

As a marriage and family therapist, a large part of the work focuses on relationships, both marital, couples, and individual. Both the mind and body hold the memory of your life experience and influence whom you become. When you enter into relationship or marriage, your family history and individual personalities join. Understanding how this tapestry weaves together promotes new awareness. I will collaborate, and help you to work through the challenges getting in your way so that you can actualize your own healing. Meditation, guided imagery, and REIKI are available to assist this process, or for your own self care.

Are you are wondering if counseling is really for you? I may understand - because when I dealt with depression, I didn't believe in therapy. I now believe anyone can get through his or her trauma with the right support. I am a Therapist and also the Executive Director for Global Trauma Research. I work with a team of amazing Therapists. We like to say – we make dreams come true! That’s because we know when you’re able to get past this hurdle, you will be able to focus on all the things you’ve always dreamt about.

Stress comes in many shades, regardless of what we face, with no discrepancies of importance, changing how we feel begins with changing our perspective. I aim to guide you through these life challenges and rebuild the mindset that these negative encounters have influenced.

Feel less alone. Improve your relationship with your partner or spouse. Reconnect with your children, your family and friends. Co parent cooperatively with your ex. . Build healthy relationships. Heal the past. Renew hope for today and tomorrow. Therapy is effective when couples and families seek help together or when only one person is engaged in therapy. Increasing your self- confidence, becoming less worried and anxious will help you feel better about yourself and positively impact your relationships and your outlook toward the future.

My approach to therapy considers that the mind and body are integral parts of a whole being. Achieving balance between these parts is an important component of the healing process and my goal is to help clients achieve this stability. Anxiety and depression can be unbearable and sometimes immobilizing; relationship problems can weaken our capacity for experiencing happiness; death, divorce and trauma can leave us hopeless and empty. My therapeutic approach strives to help client's emotional wounds heal in order to regain inner peace and improve personal growth.

I am here to support you on your journey of healing and growth. I truly believe that we each have the power to heal ourselves and live meaningful lives full of depth, joy and love.

We bring consciousness to old patterns to free ourselves and make lasting changes.

Welcome! As an NYC-based psychotherapist, I offer a warm, empathetic, genuine approach to all my clients. I’m interested in connecting deeply with my clients and understanding their life stories, past traumas, relationships, and identities. It is my belief that therapy is a collaborative process and that you are the expert of your own story. I imagine you in the driver's seat and me in the passenger seat, with you every step of the way, holding the map and offering guidance and support, but understanding that the real growth comes from you.

I'm an experienced psychologist with a flexible, integrative therapeutic approach. In a respectful, trusting and collaborative setting, I’l help you access your innate vitality and capacity for healing and growth so you can develop more adaptive solutions to painful, confusing, repetitive and unproductive patterns and life situations. My training/specialties include trauma and abuse; depression, anxiety, self-esteem issues; school, work, relationship problems; creativity; grief/loss; eating disorders; sexuality; illness/pain/aging; LGBTI/alt lifestyles; immigration/acculturation/social justice issues.

Many people find themselves stuck in repetitive patterns of behavior and thinking that do not serve their well-being. Therapy helps to identify and examine these patterns in order to understand how and why they affect our sense of self, our moods, and our relationships in negative ways. Together we will uncover new ways of thinking and relating, and learn how to apply them in your life. The therapy room is a healing and safe space in which we can collaboratively explore the obstacles preventing you from fully achieving your life goals and break the painful patterns of relating to yourself and others.
