Welcome to a place where healing is nurtured, growth is fostered, and lives are transformed.

Wouldn't it be great if your therapist didn't just listen to you, but helped YOU listen to yourself? You know, that Self that gets lost among all your responsibilities and commitments and social media and stress and all the things you tell yourself...all that stuff that makes you feel fragmented and overwhelmed. I excel at helping people discover themselves amidst the noise of life. Understanding yourself is the key to getting "unstuck" and moving towards healing, success, and growth.

Each person's life story is unique. I hope to help you explore the chapters of your life story that you would like to understand better and improve. These subtle changes can enhance your day to day life today. The first step is recognizing that you want to make changes and then having the courage to do so. I work collaboratively with you or your child to help you explore what can be done to make changes and relieve some of the stressors. As an expert working with the Latinex and the Orthodox Jewish population, I understand the intersection of cultural identity and mental health.

Hi, my name’s Nicholas (he/they), and I’m a Latinx, Middle Eastern, Jewish, and queer psychotherapist in NYC. My multicultural upbringing, experiences with immigration, and growing up in a low-income household have not only inspired me to help people who are marginalized because of how they identify, but also those who experience systematic violence. Through diverse lived and clinical experiences, I'm able to help you discover your inner thoughts surrounding identities, relationships, and social issues that affect how you show up in the world.

People often struggle with negative, self-defeating thoughts - often ones that they know are not completely true, yet nevertheless feel true. Many of my clients come to me because they want to make changes in their life - at work, school, or with family - but they feel trapped because of these negative thoughts. These thoughts can lead to excessive guilt, hopelessness, and indecision. As a therapist trained in cognitive behavioral therapy, I am committed to working together with you in helping you get unstuck.

Trauma is something that can affect any person at anytime. It often leaves a person feeling lost on how to understand their trauma and best deal with it. Trauma informed therapy can include some very heavy topics, but therapy is so much more than just a place to be sad, it’s a place to better understand oneself and grow as a person. I prioritize creating an environment of trust, laughter, self-discovery and learning; I am not a therapist who will sit in a chair and nod my head for an hour. I strive to make my clients feel comfortable and at ease. If that means sitting on the floor for an hour while we speak, then the floor it is!
