I provide trauma resolution for individuals using modalities such as Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and Internal Family Systems (IFS), seamlessly blending them with conventional person-centered, solution-focused, and CBT-based interventions.
I have a profound understanding of the transformative power embedded within relational dynamics. Early in my educational voyage, I immersed myself in family systems, unveiling the unique potency residing in healing connections. I find a special resonance in my work with couples and families, crafting an integrative approach to relational healing. I use an integrative approach to relational healing drawing upon the wisdom of John and Julie Gottman, Esther Perel and Terry Real among others. I emphasize the roles of trauma and adversity in understanding the human experience.

Cohen Military Family Center at NYU School of Medicine, where I provide therapy to veterans and their family members as well as train doctoral students.
The demands of daily living often deny us the opportunity to reflect upon and respond to that which needs healing. Beyond helping you find relief from distressing symptoms, I aim to create an affirming space where you can explore and repair patterns that have left you feeling stuck, lost and disconnected. Our work will focus on empowering you to claim the life you deem meaningful and the relationships you find fulfilling. Having been fortunate to work with clients of diverse backgrounds and ages, I am attuned to the ways that culture informs experience and draw upon these considerations throughout my work with teens to older adults.

I work with adults navigating existential and transitional moments in life, such as relationship conflicts, chronic illness, grief/loss, and complex family dynamics.
Therapy is a sacred space for you to process difficult emotions. My clinical approach is for clients to create meaning and purpose in life through reshaping the narrative of painful experiences and re-connecting to their internal strengths. Through changing self-talk, old attachment patterns, and building self-esteem, we can cultivate new neural pathways to allow you to flourish. I use a variety of cognitive and somatic approaches, including CBT, ACT, IFS, and EMDR, to aid you in your healing journey. My hope is to offer you a space to be heard, loved, and celebrated for your authentic self.

Relationships with friends, family, and coworkers.
At heart, psychotherapy is a statement: "I am worth it." When you commit to psychotherapy with me you are saying: "My concerns are worth focusing on. It is worth it to build better relationships. It is worth it to confront the issues that keep me from living the life I want and am ready for."

Clients come to me with concerns, including anxiety, depression, family conflict, and struggles with intimacy. They feel stuck, angry with those around them, or caught in destructive patterns of behavior, yet they cannot seem to understand why. The relationship we build during treatment is a powerful tool to address these patterns that you feel unable to escape. Psychotherapy provides you space to safely explore these issues and work towards changing the patterns. I help my clients develop an appreciation for their life and work. Together we will explore the uncomfortable feelings and behaviors that prevent inner fulfillment, pursuit of goals, and overall life satisfaction.

Family Therapy
What do family therapists do?
A family therapist facilitates the process of understanding and improving how a family functions. The therapist will help family members develop empathy for one another. They’ll seek to understand existing patterns, misunderstandings, and conflicts that arise, in order to help the family arrive at a realistic, unified understanding and develop the coping skills they need to build stronger relationships.
How long does therapy for families take to work?
Therapy manifests differently in every family; a common time frame is 12 weekly sessions, but some families may see improvement after just a few weeks. Families should discuss their goals with the therapist at the beginning of the process and periodically revisit those goals to assess their progress together.
How can you encourage a family member to attend family therapy?
You can encourage family members to attend therapy by expressing with both love and concern the challenges you see and explaining how a therapist could help the family navigate those challenges together. An outside perspective can help everyone feel heard, get on the same page, and develop new skills. If family members are still hesitant, it may be helpful to emphasize that family therapy is short-term—it won’t last forever.
Is therapy for families effective?
Family therapy can significantly improve family dynamics and relationships. Research suggests that family therapy can help individuals understand their role in the family, communicate and solve problems together, reduce conflict and draw boundaries when necessary, and develop coping skills for stressors, major life changes, and mental or physical illnesses within the family.
