I am a licensed clinical psychologist with expertise in pediatrics as well as young adults and families. I specialize in the assessment, diagnosis, and treatment of a wide range of issues such as anxiety, depression, substance use, school related behavioral concerns, relational stress and developmental hurdles of transitioning to young adulthood. I have extensive training in evidence based treatments such as multidimensional family therapy through the University of Miami/Miller School of Medicine as well as cognitive behavioral therapy through my postdoctoral fellowship at NY Presbyterian Hospital/Columbia University Medical Center
Currently, I am a psychologist at Montefiore Medical Center & Asst Professor of Pediatrics at Albert Einstein College of Medicine where I treat ADHD, anxiety, depression, school refusal, trauma, grief and parent management. I believe that a strong, positive connection and relationship with my patients is the foundation for true evolution, growth, and change.
Through my compassionate, sensitive, and warm demeanor, I aim to collaborate with you and your child to provide the most comprehensive and effective treatment. I encourage you to give me a call for a free 15 minute consultation which I aim to answer and address any and all of your questions, thoughts, and concerns you may have. Thank you!
