As your therapist, I want nothing more than for you to feel safe & comfortable & will work with you to explore your past, present, and future self. Finding a therapist who can meet your needs, bring calm & purpose to your life, can be challenging, and many times feel overwhelming. As such, I want to applaud you for taking these vital first steps in bringing therapy into your life. Being part of someone's journey to self-realization & healing is both an honor and a privilege that I do not take lightly. I will teach you how to separate yourself from the problem(s) you are experiencing in order to work through them.

Guidance on how to cope through a difficult time, adjust to new circumstances and to re-discover who you may be in this very moment may be the initial steps to a whole new beginning. You might be going through relationship conflicts, adjusting to change or feeling like things are out of control. Anxiety symptoms may be enhanced or you feel like there is not many people you can go to that will understand. The goal is to feel at ease, to want to come to sessions and to explore unaddressed emotions, improve the ability to cope, and manage conflicts that prevent us from finding a balance. We will work together to create that balance.

Endless nights pass without rest. Panic surges through your veins as you lie awake, greeted once more by the unforgiving hour of 3 am. The anxiety and despair is relentless; you’re barely holding on. But outwardly you maintain composure, presenting an image of having everything under control. Yet, inwardly, a fierce battle wages. Your inner demons are tightening their grip, leaving you feeling despondent and utterly drained.

I have over 20 years of experience providing psychotherapy to children, adolescents and adults. I utilize a supportive approach to create a comfortable environment in which you can achieve your goals. I have experience treating trauma, depression, low self-esteem, bereavement, stress, anxiety, psychosis, relationship issues, parenting issues, and behavioral issues. I offer evidence based psychotherapy, which has been proven to be effective by the best available research.

Asking for help is one of the strongest things you can do; but it can also be one of the hardest because of past experience of not being heard, believed, or supported. Extreme stressors and traumatic events-including new or ongoing health conditions-affect every aspect of our lives & can make relationships-with family& friends very challenging. The impact of these events can make us feel isolated, misunderstood,& unsupported(even by the well-intentioned).They can also lead us to make choices we are not proud of and limit our enjoyment of life in general. I specialize in anxiety/depression/life transitions/pelvic floor dysfunction.

When you can't find the words to express your thoughts and emotions, let your creativity help you. Art Therapy is a non verbal and safe means to express your feelings and fears.

I will help you to navigate your emotions and fears. Together we can overcome obstacles through verbal and non verbal techniques.

Are you feeling anxious, sad or overwhelmed? Do you need support in overcoming a significant obstacle in your personal or professional life or in making a major life decision? By providing a safe, caring and understanding therapeutic relationship, I will assist you in this journey. We will openly explore your difficulties, discuss techniques for coping with feelings, reach new resolutions, achieve solutions, establish and reach goals and improve your life and relationships with others. We'll work on developing positive coping skills for unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, so that you can live a joyful, healthy and peaceful life.

It is particularly important for one to feel connected with and deeply understood by the psychologist that they choose. My approach to therapy is welcoming, empathetic, collaborative, and draws upon years of experience gained working in outpatient settings and schools. I have extensive experience and training using cognitive-behavioral techniques in working with children, adolescents, adults, and families. I have specialized training in crisis-intervention, individual therapy, family therapy, play-therapy, and in conducting assessments.

My theoretical orientation is integrative, which means I use a combination of humanistic, solution-focused, person-centered, cognitive behavioral, mindfulness based /contemplative approaches, stress management, and insight oriented techniques-depending on the needs of the client. I understand how critical the relationship between client and therapist is to the success of the therapeutic experience. As such, my hope always is to provide a warm, empathetic, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment-one in which my clients will feel safe and encouraged to build trust and work towards self-empowerment. To that end, I employ a collaborative, strengths-oriented approach.

I specialize in working with creative highly sensitive people who deal with depression and anxiety. Together we will process your experiences, change unhelpful narratives, and develop harmony and balance within yourself. I work as witness in helping you develop a more nuanced inner dialogue to move from a place of confusion and disconnection towards self compassion and healing. I am LGBTQIA+ affirming, Sex Positive, Spiritually affirming, and work from a trauma-informed, anti-oppressive, multiculturally sensitive, & intersectional approach towards embodied healing and life empowerment.

I work with individuals and couples to provide a supportive, non-judgmental and compassionate therapeutic environment. My goal is to create a trusting relationship which will enable you to acquire insight into patterns of behavior that may be destructive, while strengthening behaviors which are productive in your life. I view the therapeutic relationship as a joint journey into self-exploration, which can give you the opportunity for insight and empower you with the necessary tools to evolve, bring about change and achieve goals.

I am a doctor of clinical social work, board certified in oncology care, whose goal it is to provide a compassionate space for therapy. In my many years of experience in cancer care in a healthcare setting, my work has afforded me the opportunity to support individuals, families, and loved ones through life threatening and life-limiting illness, trauma, grief, loss, existential distress, and the search for meaning in the face of adversity. In life, there is suffering for us all in different ways and we can perhaps find meaning in the pain, purpose in the loss, and comfort through the journey.

One of the most courageous things we can do is to begin to understand our own story. What often precedes healing, however, is profound confusion and discomfort which deters us from delving deeper within. The process of growth is often accompanied by fear of the unknown and thus, can appear a daunting task. But you are not alone. My goal is to walk alongside you as you come to know yourself and navigate the path to a happier, healthier life. More importantly, what are your goals? What makes you feel safe? Therapy strengthens our insight by compassionately confronting us with the questions we have never dared to ask ourselves before.

I offer individual psychotherapy for adults in Queens, NY and online. In my collaborative work with clients I help people gain more insight in themselves and their relationships, examine the role of the past into the present and bring attention and curiosity to different parts of themselves in order to help them feel empowered to create the changes they want to make. I also use Eye movement desensitisation and reprocessing (EMDR), a powerful technique for reprocessing trauma if needed.
