Welcome to a place where healing is nurtured, growth is fostered, and lives are transformed. As a Jewish therapist with a heart dedicated to change, I am here to guide individuals on their unique journeys towards emotional well-being and resilience. Specializing in working with children and teenagers, I am deeply attuned to the challenges they face in today's world. My focus lies in addressing attachment issues, behavioral struggles, anxiety, depression, ADHD, and the lasting impacts of trauma.

Does it feel like there’s more potential to your life, but something always seems to hold you back? Perhaps you’re dealing with depression, anxiety, or past trauma. Many people struggle with making meaningful connections, navigating relationships, and searching for purpose. My role as a therapist is to help you remove the roadblocks that keep you from living your fullest life. I support people from all backgrounds, including women, survivors of abuse, college students, the Jewish community, couples, and more. No matter what you’ve been through in the past, you deserve a healthy, happy, and meaningful life moving forward.

I'm a Licensed Certified Social Worker with many years of clinical experience, currently licensed in CA, FL, NJ and NY. The focus of my work is with betrayed partners (of sex addicts). Most of my clients approach me trying to understand and process the trauma that they have suffered. For many patients, their recent trauma, is not their first. Patients often tell me that I’m so easy to talk to and that they feel comfortable and validated when working with me. In helping my clients understand their trauma, and the dynamics around it, I work gently and carefully, while ensuring comfort and safety as we talk about these difficult topics

In therapy the most profound changes occur in the context of a safe and confidential relationship between the patient and a skilled and compassionate therapist. You will feel less alone with difficult feelings and I will help you figure out how and why you are getting stuck in work and/or in your personal life. Together we will work on clarifying your goals, meeting your challenges and helping you to feel more fulfilled. In a good therapeutic relationship you will develop a greater sense of empowerment and free choice. Life is full of hardships. What matters is developing the tools to deal with them.
