Therapists in New York, NY

I offer long and short term therapy. There are many reasons why people seek therapy or psychoanalysis. Some people have a specific issue that they want to focus on, while others feel unhappy, lost, depleted, and generally dissatisfied in their life without exactly knowing why. Desire for personal growth, curiosity, or a self-care, are also good reasons to seek therapy. I invite you to reach out to me. I might be able to help you.

Over the past thirty years, I have worked with individuals, couples, and families who are internationals coming from diverse cultural and professional backgrounds.

I am dedicated to helping you transform unhealthy habitual patterns by opening opportunities for you to find more strength, compassion, and aliveness in your life and in your relationships.
