Many seek psychotherapy when suffering proves more uncomfortable than starting a process of self-examination that may itself feel scary. Some feel anxious about finding a therapist to embark on a healing path. Others not in crisis may wish to deepen their self-knowledge and discover new priorities. Whether you're intimidated or excited, I believe my gentle and nonjudgmental manner, my years of experience, and my attunement to individuals’ pain and their drive to adapt will help put you at ease. I provide a space and guidance that support exploration to enhance self-knowledge, envision your dreams and live your fullest possible life.
My work draws on many traditions. I assist in exploring your past to make sense of your relational style and how you became the person you are. I use a parts model to engage your curiosity, make peace with your survival strategies and find ways of relating to bring you more joy. I promote using mindfulness and the healing resources of your body and breath.
I’ve been a psychotherapist in private practice in NYC for 30 years. My agency experience includes several rape trauma settings and college mental health (The New School) as a therapist and supervisor. Earlier, I worked as a writer and editor. Currently, I see individuals and couples in my West Village office and virtually. I also offer clinical supervision.
