For most of us, anxiety and stress can inhibit our ability to be fully present. Sometimes, all it takes is a new perspective to find the clarity to create a new reality, build fulfilling relationships, and grow into the best version of yourself. I help women experiencing stress, anxiety, and self doubt to overcome life’s challenges and create healthy relationships. Navigating friendships, dating, and changing family dynamics can be a roller coaster in your 20s and 30s—a time where you might grow apart from old friends, experience roommate conflicts, explore intimacy for the first time, or get clear on what you want out of life.

I am a Columbia University trained Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) providing individual, group, family/couples therapy at MindWell NYC. I specializes in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), with a particular interest in working with adolescents and adults who may be experiencing depression, anxiety, trauma or struggling to manage their emotions.

Searching for and starting with a therapist for yourself or your child can be a daunting and overwhelming process. It doesn't have to be. If you are interested in feeling better about yourself, struggling to change relationship patterns or have a child that needs therapeutic intervention due to divorce or change in family structure or if you are an expectant or new parent in need of support, I can help. Together we will develop a plan for emotional growth in a supportive environment.

Many of us struggle with the wish to be close to a lover/partner/spouse while simultaneously feeling fearful of risking vulnerability. Past hurts, traumas in childhood or adolescence, negative family messages about sexuality, body image issues, present-day stresses, betrayals of trust, and experiences of loss, may all contribute to this hesitancy. As an AASECT Certified couples and sex therapist, I will work with you individually and/or in couples' sessions to develop a better understanding of what holds you back from experiencing the deeper physical and emotional intimacy you desire.

My ideal clients -- and I have many --are individuals or people in various relationships who feel they are not achieving their maximum potential -- in life, career or relationships. . If I can help solve people or couples solve problems or find more satisfaction I have succeeded, and I often do

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I use various styles of therapy to instill the most effective outcome for my patients. I have experience with children, families, and adults. My experience entails working with patients with anxiety, family issues, trauma, social issues, depression and life changing events. Oftentimes, it can be challenging to identify ways to overcome life's obstacles when you are currently experiencing them. With the help of an experienced Social Worker, you can begin to process these obstacles from a holistic approach and create realistic and attainable goals that would help you enhance your life.

Thank you for reviewing my profile. If you are experiencing overwhelming anxiety, deteriorated sleep, eating, social dysfunction due to school, employment, immigration related problems; or relationship difficulties related to work, original family, interracial relationship, you come to the right place for help. My current clientele include teens/young women who are suffering from poor self image and esteem; undergraduate/graduate students from Ivy League and other private colleges who are frustrated from achieving their academic and social goals; and Chinese-American interracial couples struggling with their intimacy difficulties.

I have the honor of accompanying fellow LGBTQIA+ individuals of color, especially those moving through life transitions, first-generation undergraduate & graduate students, academics, artists, writers, and those holding intersectional identities rooted in multicultural and interracial families, partnerships, and transcultural and/or adult adoption. In addition, I work with couples as well as poly individuals and ethically/consensually non-monogamous partnerships.

Feelings of emotional pain, depression or anxiety, alert us that important needs are not being met. When needs are not met we feel vulnerable and require protection. As a psychoanalyst I work with the whole person to find less taxing forms of protection so that fears, social withdrawal or repetitive attempts at safety become less necessary. I encourage relaxed communication at a very comfortable pace to nurture a greater sense of safety so your drive for freedom naturally leads you to the life you want. I work to resolve depression, creative blocks, OCD, trauma, romantic difficulties, and problems at work.

I am a clinical psychologist providing therapy and assessment services in Scarsdale and Greenwich. I treat various conditions, such as depression, anxiety, behavioral problems, social anxiety, and school/work issues.

Furthermore, I have extensive experience in conducting psychological assessments. Therapeutically, I focus on developing teens and adults, where as I provide assessments for all ages.

People look for a therapist when they are experiencing anxiety,difficulties in relationships, confusion around issues related to sexuality and/or identity. Others feel depressed,struggle with addiction, or have a sense that something is not right in their lives. Often people are trying to cope with old hurts or injuries, and find that their old ways of coping with them are no longer successful,or that these strategies are the very thing that brings them pain or frustration.Often these symptoms and problems are connected with early painful experiences,or from ideas and beliefs which have been formed in rigid, or dysfunctional family systems.

I am a NY licensed social worker, who completed my education in Boston. I speak both English and Cantonese. As someone who grew up in a NYC traditional immigrant family, hard work was emphasized and taught. These experiences helped me develop a unique bicultural perspective and approach to help people from multiple cultures, different upbringings, or beliefs. I believe it is very important to have a person to talk to and seek guidance from who understands one’s culture and speaks one's language for our everyday conflicts, struggles, or stresses within work, family, education, and community.

Starting therapy is a brave step. It means facing yourself and the challenges life has thrown your way. The external world of everyday experiences, family dynamics, and social or workplace interactions can deeply impact our internal world and cause us to lose our balance. As your therapist, my aim is to help you find that balance. I am here to support you, tapping into your inner strength to help you function and feel better.

I am a Humanistic Client-Centered Clinical Psychologist, originally trained within the Psychoanalytic orientation.

I look forward to meeting you for an initial consultation.

Welcome! I am so happy that you are taking this step in your healing process. No matter what brings you to the search for a therapist you deserve to be seen in your wholeness, in your pain, in your joy and in all the beautiful messiness in between. You are entitled to your vitality and we will work together to pursue just that. I work from an anti-oppressive lens, acknowledging the impact of interpersonal, systemic, and intergenerational traumas and also come from a mind/ body, emotion-focused, healing-oriented approach. I hope to highlight your innate resilience that brought you to the incredibly brave step of asking for support.

To quote Anais Nin, " We don't see things as they are, we see them as we are". When you are in the middle of a problem it is hard to find solutions because there is a lack of prespective. Friends and family may have their own viewpoint that make it hard to be objective. Therapy provides a non-judgemental place to find new solutions when old behaviors don't work anymore. I have over 12 years experience successfully helping patients find alternative ways of veiwing things and making decisions about what they want in their lives.

There are times when we feel blocked and feel unsatisfied with ourselves or with our relationships. I am a licensed clinical psychologist providing individual therapy to young adults and adults. I work with clients with various concerns, including anxiety, depression, life transitions, family conflict, relationship issues, and navigating identity. I aim to create a therapeutic relationship and space that is built on openness, authenticity, and empathy. Together then, we work to bridge the past and present, and we develop intentional choices and behaviors that allow you to be the best version of yourself.

The most important thing in a therapeutic relationship is the match. Everyone wants to find a therapist who 'gets' them. I believe that therapy really works, and that finding the right person can be life-changing. As a therapist, I believe it is important to respect the choices that people make in their lives, and to listen openly and non-judgmentally. We all make choices that may not make sense to our friends and family. Therapy is useful for helping us to understand the reasoning behind the decisions we've made, and for facilitating change in our lives.
