Feeling Overwhelmed and Stuck? You’re Not Alone. Stress, anxiety, and indecision can feel like a constant weight, keeping you from living the life you deserve. Left unchecked, these feelings can take over, leaving you exhausted, disconnected, and unable to move forward impacting your career and relationships. As a trusted clinical psychologist, I offer practical, evidence-based techniques to help you break free from the cycle of stress and anxiety. We’ll create a personalized plan to build calm, clarity, and confidence in your life. With mindfulness and insight, you can reach your full potential.
In our work together, you will learn to utilize mindfulness to create a buffer between an activating event and its response. You will see how you may view current events through a lens from the past, causing amplified reactions.
You have started the journey towards getting help, which is great! My background includes clinical training at Harvard Medical School, Yeshiva University and New York University. Take the next step. Contact me today to learn how we can work together.

I have extensive experience in MBCT and treating anxiety disorders. I have also written a book on perfectionism for mental health professionals. This trait is defined by excessively high standards, which can lead to anxiety. Understanding the perfectionist roots of anxiety can foster change.

Dynamically informed CBT combines active change with deeper understanding. This sophisticated integration is particularly valuable for complex patterns that have not fully responded to traditional CBT alone. In practice, this means we work on multiple levels simultaneously.
