I treat individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, grief or a general sense of being stuck. I add to my over 25 years of experience various healing approaches including cognitive behavioral therapy, talk therapy, dream analysis, journaling and other modalities in our work to find re-newed meaning and purpose in life. As a team we explore methods for bringing symptom relief and understanding of the root causes of your problems. I also counsel couples who find their connection damaged. I provide a neutral space for exploring causes of the problems and offer tools for effective communication and healing in the relationship.

If you feel lost, confused or hopeless about your life or your relationships, you can turn things around. You can get clear about these problems, and find solutions. You can have a life that more authentically fits who you really are. You can manage your relationships so they begin to feel warm and fun again. When you're suffering and feeling awful, it may be hard to believe that there are things you can do to feel good again. It may also be hard to believe that you can find the power to shift and revive painful relationships.

Your thoughts are racing, stuck on replay. Your inner critic is winning. Life feels meaningless and exhausting. You want to escape reality. Feeling scared of vulnerability and hiding who you really are is wearing on you. Your relationships are draining. It feels like you're carrying around a body bag full of fears and insecurities. Feeling like a prisoner to your past is exhausting, too. Let’s face it: feeling confused, lost, and stuck has gotten old. Fortunately, you've come to the right place. Therapy can help. Life can be hard and feel overwhelming at times, but you don't have to live in pain.

With over two decades of dedicated practice in clinical social work, I bring a depth of understanding and compassion to my work with adults and couples. My areas of expertise include guiding individuals through the complexities of depression, anxiety, and relationship challenges. As a therapist trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), I journey with clients through the shadows of past traumas to the light of healing. Throughout this process, we gently unravel and reweave the tapestries of their lives, transforming pain into resilience.

I treat patients utilizing a relational analytic style. Family and personal issues are addressed. I specialize in physical symptoms as a pathway for heightened conscious awareness and psychological health.

I help people with relationships and work, depression, anxiety, sexual issues, coping with fame. Integrating interventions from all orientations, I taught a course on therapy techniques to PhD candidates at Adelphi where I also supervised psychologists in training in doing therapy. I also trained as a psychoanalyst at the White Institute where I supervise and served as Society President. See my book "Desire,Self, Mind & the Psychotherapies" partly on Google Books and my profile on Wikipedia for more information about professional organizations to which I belong and photo. You can find on SKYPE as well for video therapy.

I treat individuals and couples using both short and long term treatment techniques. There is a writers' saying: 'How can I know what I think until I hear what I say?' This applies to psychotherapy as well. Talking about your problems and concerns with a trained, empathic listener is often the best way to discover both your issues and their solutions. I use a great deal of humor and compassion in my work. Psychotherapy is particularly helpful in working with relationships, career issues and ambivalence in choices.

I have been a psychotherapist for almost 40 years. I love my work. I dedicate myself to my practice which means I am spiritually orientated. I learn as much from you as a human being as you do from me. The difference being... that you do not have to take care of me! I am a seasoned therapist. I specialize in the treatment of anxiety and depression. I work with couples who are struggling with intimacy. I am experienced in teaching mindfulness as a spiritual tool. I treat grief....the loss of a partner, a child or a beloved pet. I am comfortable with tough problems...but i believe laughter an humor play a crucial role in therapy.

First off, congratulations on taking a major step for yourself by seeking a therapist. It would be an honor to help you further develop your sense of self, explore the depth of what you've experienced and begin to find and celebrate the joy in your life. It is a pleasure to meet you, and i look forward to going through this process together. I have experience working with all age groups in multiple aspects of life. I worked as a therapist in multiple capacities, ranging from school settings, to a mobile crisis unit, to a substance abuse clinic. I specialize in grief and bereavement therapy.

I hold a Master of Science from Columbia University and Bachelor of Arts from the University of California, Berkeley. My experience includes intensive work with anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction, couples therapy and bereavement. I've worked on-staff as a psychotherapist at Stony Brook Hospital, The Dunes East Hampton and Quannacut Addiction Rehab Eastern Long Island, and in private practice for well over a decade. I offer in-person appointments, online sessions as well as concierge care. My column, "Thoughts from a Therapist" appears in the East Hampton Press, Southampton Press, Sag Harbor Express and online at 27east.

My therapeutic approach focuses on my belief that when it comes to an individual’s life, they are the expert. As a therapist, it is my job to be expert on theory and techniques, to assist client's in realizing their own capabilities of deciding where they want to go, and I encourage the strengths within themselves to pursue wherever that is and to identity what that will take to get there. First, however, I must address the level of resistance a client shows.My treatment heavily looks at aspects of internalization, pulls from psychoanalytic theories of neurosis, specifically signal anxiety, and focuses on realizing personal agency.
