Hello and welcome to my practice. Asking for help is not easy, so I am so glad you are here! Therapists are not a one size fits all and finding the right fit for you, your family, and/or your child is so important for therapy to be successful. My approach with clients is always collaborative, genuine and warm, and I use both empathy and humor. I am client-centered, strengths based, and solutions focused. I utilize multiple therapeutic modalities to correspond with the needs of each individual client, meeting them where they are at.

I believe that in order to be healthy, we need to be able to work, to love, and to play. If you are overwhelmed with anxiety or feelings of being lost, unsure of what you want, feeling less than whole, finding yourself procrastinating when you don't know why, or having repeated difficulty in relationships, I am hopeful you have come to the right place. By looking closely at what may be holding you back, we will be able to understand it with fresh eyes. This can lead you to your goals of relief from suffering, a greater sense of choice, and more freedom to express the self you most want to be.

We live in a world of uncertainty, fear, world crisis. Often, we are not aware of how we absorb, what unravels, and experience a sense of powerlessness. It is a crucial time for having community, a time, where one can feel known, and create a climate of all the ssubstantive, honest and not friendships knowledge connection and support are their for the healingwith “ A Friend on a Journey “ , it is not only and a grounding of problem solving

Negative or traumatic experiences from the past get encoded in our bodies. When these neurons get triggered, our positive present mindset gets blasted by echoes of past fear. Old, stuck anxiety shape-shifts into not-great coping habits. Old, stuck depression whispers that it's dumb to future plan, unsafe to dream. Since this embodied stress speaks "sensation" , the language of the body, verbal therapy alone can't help our bodies know that the past is really, truly in the past. So we project our fear into the future. Pass it down to our kids. Spread it out into the world. I work with people who would like to be done with all that.

A seasoned Licensed Clinical Psychotherapist, I obtained my Master's in Clinical Social Work from the prestigious Fordham University's Advanced Standing Program, specializing in therapy for couples, individuals, and young people. I further honed my expertise with a postgraduate degree from the Albert Ellis Institute.

Are you feeling stuck? Are you wondering about your life’s purpose? Are you dealing with an acute or chronic illness like cancer, or the challenges of aging and living well? I have lived experience with cancer and also decades of work in the fields of health and HIV/AIDS. I am committed to providing a safe space for consideration of whatever issues you bring to our time together, an accepting space for us to explore what is on your mind and in your heart.

I am a licensed social worker (NY, MA & NJ) whose psychotherapeutic approach stems from sex therapy, trauma-informed care, and emotionally focused therapy. Using a relationship-centered model, I focus my psychotherapy work on the therapist-client bond in a collaborative and integrative environment. ​As a clinician, I have much experience working with couples and poly relationships, LGBTQIA+ folks and relationships, refugees and asylum seekers, and sexual assault survivors. I have worked with clients wrestling with depression, anxiety, shame, gender and sexual identity concerns, sexual functioning, sexual desire, and self-esteem.

I work with emerging adults (ages 18-29) and professionals seeking to explore depression, anxiety, gender and sexuality, single-event, systemic and interpersonal trauma, self-esteem, creativity, and career and academic planning. We might be a good match if you often find yourself focused on the distressing feelings, body sensations, and thoughts that form in response to trauma and life’s challenges. Maybe you want to incorporate a mind/body approach to mental health, explore your attachment style, or learn new coping tools.

People thinks you have it together all of the time. Really, you are overwhelmed spending all your energy making it look so. No one would know you are highly stressed, both at work and at home. You take care of everyone else's needs before your own, and while its exhausting, you feel too guilty to put yourself first. You have always succeeded in school and in work because that was what was expected of you. However, you know you are not living your truth. You know it's because you never took the time to figure out what truly fulfills you. As you try to sleep your heart pounds while you criticize yourself for not being good enough.

My practice is with couples and adult individuals. Some of the clients I work with have sexual concerns and/or relational problems. I have worked with all kinds of couples who have been together two weeks to fifty years including same sex and heterosexual couples. I am an active therapist and tailor interventions to your style. Each person is unique,and I don't believe that one size fits all. I also believe in the power of humor. And in the power of appreciation of ourselves, respect and acceptance of each other with all our human imperfections.. NOTE DURING THE VIRUS CRISIS, i CAN MEET WITH YOU BY VIDEO THROUGH ZOOM

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.

I am deeply committed to helping individuals, couples, and families navigate life's most painful journeys and realizations. I believe each person's story is unique, and I tailor my approach to create a safe, supportive space where you can uncover your strengths, explore your goals, desires, dreams, and fantasies, resolve conflicts, and foster growth. Together, we'll explore the intricate dynamics of your true self, whom you most want to be, complex relationships, and develop strategies to cultivate deeper connections, emotional resilience, and pride.

Feelings of hopelessness, shame and inadequacy may be rising up regardless of your daily positive affirmations. When you are feeling stuck, it may be time to try a different approach—targeting your thoughts, body and emotions. Together, you will learn to self-regulate, relieve your symptoms, and increase your confidence and self-worth in order to embody your authentic self. We’ll work together to heal your past so you can ground yourself in the present and reach future goals.

There are a number of credentials I could share about myself and ways you might decide if I'm the right therapist for you, but honestly, between you and me, what matters is that I love this work. I use theories rooted in an anti-racist, queer liberation, harm reduction, and body-neutral framework. I feel most drawn to this work through an attachment-focused analytical frame. We have all been harmed in relationships, and I believe our healing must also exist in relationships. I know we cannot look at one's personal frame without understanding the systemic and cultural impact that intersectionality has had on one's own experience.

Do you find yourself struggling with sadness or constant worry? Are you having difficulty in your relationships? No matter what you're going through, this will be a safe space for you. I'm here to help. I am a licensed mental health counselor of 4 years and have mostly worked in nonprofit. I believe mental health care should be attainable for all, which is why I accept health insurances and offer reduced rates if needed. Much of my work has been with the Jewish population.

I believe the therapeutic relationship can be both healing and empowering. I use a person centered, strengths-based approach to help each person best reach their goals. Together we create a warm, safe, and genuine space that each person can use to gain self-awareness and feel supported. We work to eliminate distress and facilitate personal growth to help the client reach their individual goals. Throughout this process, I place great importance on understanding the impact of a person’s identity, culture, and environment to best support them. I also believe collaboration, creativity, and humor are essential to the process!
