Born and raised in Manhattan, I help patients overcome stress to achieve satisfaction and peace in their everyday lives. As a state-licensed and board-certified therapist with two Master's Degrees (Psychology & Clinical Social Work), I have the education and experience necessary to treat folks suffering from anxiety, depression, social isolation, interpersonal conflict, addiction, relationship issues, avoidance issues, grief, and more. I've honed my assessment and intervention skills through years of working in hospitals, having studied under some of the most prominent psychologists and psychiatrists in New York City.
My style is relational and empathic, but at times challenging. It is important to me that my patients achieve the best therapeutic results. I employ different modalities of treatment rooted in psychodynamic and cognitive behavioral foundations—I help you understand what goals will most satisfy you, why those goals will satisfy you, and how to achieve them.
I have centered my practice around a balance between stoicism and idealism. We only have so much control over what happens in life. I can help you build resilience and anti-fragility in reaction to difficult stimuli. If my services feel like the right fit for you, then please call, text, or email for a free consultation. I look forward to hearing from you.

I work with young adults and teenagers who struggle with finding direction in life or suffer from anxiety/depression. During the initial sessions of treatment, we will explore the issues you're facing now and develop a collaborative plan to address and correct them. Most of my patients see a gradual reduction in symptoms within their first month of treatment, and sustained improvement thereafter.
