Are you grieving a loss ? Along the way, life delivers many blows to us: the death of someone we hold dear, the end of a relationship, an illness or loss of something precious to us. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, who over the last 25 years, has counseled people facing issues of loss , trauma and aging in New York City. As a therapist I am a caring witness and compassionate guide to your very individual process.

Life can certainly be a struggle at times. Aging, whether you are just beginning to feel it or you have been moving through it for some time, is hard. Feelings of loss , depression, anger, shame, guilt and/or anxiety can waylay us and make it difficult to cope. Problems with independence, relationships, family conflicts, health issues, professional work and grief from loss can all be overwhelming. Exploring these issues in a safe, supportive environment can be helpful. By understanding what is triggering these feelings and developing tools to assist in coping, things can be less difficult and enjoyable again.

If you are reading this, you are looking to make changes in your life. The three areas where I can help you make the changes you are looking for, even if you do not yet know the specifics yourself, are changing how you feel, changing specific behaviors, and changing patterns of thought. I like to work quickly and honestly, but I will tailor your therapy to your individual needs. What this means is that you will be given a safe and judgment free space in which to examine and execute the changes that will lead to a happier and more enjoyable life.

My motto is that progress is a process when implementing growth. Through exploration of thoughts and feelings, we will build a collaborative avenue for change. I utilize a patient-centered, strengths-based perspective, and trauma-informed lens. Through relationally-oriented psychodynamic psychotherapy and psychoanalysis, we will create a safe space filled with empathy, warmth, and challenge. We will partner together to better understand your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and how you will build the tools to navigate both positive and difficult situations.

I work with people suffering from various mental health conditions: depression, anxiety, panic attacks, mood disorders, or grieving a loss . In my 25 years as a therapist, I have worked with patients from diverse cultural, racial, and socio-economic backgrounds. In the recent years, my focus has been psychotherapy, support and psycho-education for people with acute or chronic medical conditions. The achievements of modern medicine do not replace attention to potentially devastating psychological effects of being sick, yet doctors often overlook or ignore them, leaving us to cope with fear, loneliness, and critical decisions to make.

Although some struggle is an inevitable part of life, there is the danger of accepting continual pain & struggle as "the way life is". This way of thinking can keep a person trapped, unable to even imagine what "better" would look like. Therapy offers a way out. For some, the traumas suffered in the past make it difficult to find happiness. Others may find themselves behaving in ways that leave them feeling worse, or once again in the same hurtful relationships. Some may be consumed with regrets about past mistakes, or filled with fear of the future, missing opportunities to live well in the present.

Dealing promptly with your psychological and social problems is essential for you and the people you love and care about. Together we can uncover solutions to help you live your happy, healthy life. Seeking help is a sign of strength, not weakness. Are you going through difficult times? You and I will work together to help you gain control over emotions, achieve safer and closer relationships, bring improvements in your behavior, reduce or eliminate unwanted and distressing thoughts, restore lost motivation, or just recover the joy of life.
