I use a solution-focused, person centered, narrative and existential approach to therapy; but I am also eclectic and make sure that you receive treatment you need.
Do you feel like your ideal self? I know Adjusting to a new reality can be hard and exhausting; my main goal is for the client to feel like their ideal self. Once you feel like you're in a great space, it's all about learning how to keep it up. One of my favorite lines is "every little step is still a step towards your goal".

Garden City, NY 11530
From here, I work with a variety of techniques, including CBT, Narrative therapy, Positive Psychology and Motivational Interviewing.
My dedication to this field comes from my interest in working with people and being inspired by their ability to change and persevere when motivated and engaged to do so. I am particularly experienced in helping couples who are struggling with communication and/or family issues. I also treat adults and older adolescents with life stressors and challenges, including anxiety, depression, social discomfort, parenting, goal stagnation, and personality issues. My early work in addiction makes me qualified to help clients assess their relationship with substances and develop a plan with them, and their families, to address it.

Narrative Therapists
Is narrative therapy evidence-based?
Narrative therapy is not well-studied, and it may not be as effective in treating mental health conditions when compared with evidence-based treatments such as cognitive behavioral therapy. Some small studies do show that depressed and anxious individuals who were treated with narrative therapy reported improvement in anxiety and depression symptoms.
How long does narrative therapy last?
Narrative therapy is less structured when compared with psychoanalysis, for example. Narrative therapy is more open-ended and may not be limited to a set number of sessions. It is common for clients to be in therapy for a few months, and sometimes a year or longer. Patients see their therapist one to two times a week, though the exact schedule and timeline may vary depending on a person’s challenges and progress. Individuals can also practice the principles of narrative therapy after treatment has ended.
Does narrative therapy work?
Narrative therapy can help a person manage or reduce symptoms of conditions like depression or anxiety. This type of therapy encourages a person to reflect on the moments of their life when their particular problem was not at the forefront of their minds—perhaps life celebrations, achievements, and other successes. The individual is encouraged to rewrite their storyline as if their particular problem was not part of their life. This therapy may offer benefits that are hard to measure.
What are the possible limitations of narrative therapy?
Narrative therapy is person-centered or client-centered, and the health professional pays more attention to the subjective narratives that are constructed by the client, as opposed to other objective measures. The therapist privileges the individual’s perspective over all others. This open form may feel frustrating for individuals seeking a more structured approach; certainly, no one therapy type will work for every individual.
