Acknowledging the need for support is an incredibly brave step — I’m so happy that you are here. I work with adults in individual and group psychotherapy, and specialize in treating adults with chronic medical conditions such as cancer, Lupus, Crohn’s disease, and Cystic Fibrosis. My additional areas of expertise include helping adults navigate the LGBTQ experience and women’s health concerns, as well as depression, anxiety and trauma. Although you may not yet be able to fully appreciate your strength and resilience, I am here to hold this vision for you as we work together to guide you towards a life of deep fulfillment.
I specialize in CBT and draw from related interventions to meet the needs of each individual patient. I hope to provide a safe space for you to explore areas of vulnerability. I will partner with you to think about these areas in a helpful way and to identify active behavioral changes you can make in the service of lasting, positive change.
In addition to private practice, I am a Clinical Assistant Professor of Psychology in the Department of Psychiatry at Weill Cornell Medicine. I provide teaching and supervision services to psychology and psychiatry trainees.
