Having a confidential place to explore what is causing imbalance or stress in one's life is the starting place. Exploring one's emotional and psychological process will open the path to freeing inner turmoil, indecision and personal struggle, while also finding solutions for better communication within relationships and navigating one's life path and career. Psychotherapy enables you to break free of repetitive patterns that prevent happiness. Finding one's identity and purpose in life is an ongoing question even after one is 50 years old. It is okay to question, review and reinvent without having to stop the ship.

I have been working with women in private practice for 32 years. In a loving and safe environment we will challenge together such issues as: Adolescent/Parent problems; Depression; Loneliness; Marital and Divorce crossroads; Family Relationships; Abuse in all its forms; Sex, Drugs and Alcohol concerns, and "Who am I and where am I going?". There are many other topics that women come up against in their struggle to find themselves, these are just a few. When women find solidity within themselves their lives become clear.

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, as well as in private practice for well over a decade. My mental health column, "Thoughts from a Therapist" appears in the East Hampton Press, Southampton Press, Sag Harbor Express and online at 27east.com.

Footprints was started by a therapist who realized that often times the services provided to low socio-economic communities is lacking quality care. We noticed these communities where confronted with long wait times, disrespectful admins, and subpar treatment. The one and only purpose was to exploit the community for profit without providing the level of care deserved. Feel Better Therapy began from the inspiration to provide quality mental health care to the poorest of communities and treating the clients of this community the same way a rich patient would be treated in a clinic treating affluent clients.

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.

Living life to the fullest, releasing old behaviors that have become patterns so deeply ingrained that we no longer recognize how to make these necessary changes. Allow me to help you shift gears, create new patterns of thought and action so you can make those quantum leaps to pursue your greatest and truest potential.

For over 35 years I've been serving the community of the East End of Long Island as a therapist, lecturer and consultant in schools and private practice. I utilize varying modalities such as EMDR, mindfulness, stress reduction techniques and traditional talk therapy.

When you are physically ill you turn to your doctor, hoping they can help you feel better. Problems like depression, anxiety, impulsivity, uncontrollable anger, guilt, or low self-confidence can be as painful, if not more so, than physical illness; they can also create serious relationship and work difficulties. I have over 25 years of experience and I have helped many adults, adolescents, and couples who had received limited or no benefit from previous therapists, other doctors, or medications. I work well with people who are skeptical of, or intimidated by, talk therapy.

As a seasoned therapist with over a decade of experience, I specialize in working with adolescents, young adults, and families, creating a safe and empowering environment that fosters healing and growth. My areas of expertise include treating addiction, trauma, PTSD, physical and sexual abuse, family violence, depression, anxiety, and helping individuals navigate life transitions and grief and loss.

If you are struggling to adjust to a "new norm" following the COVID-19 global crisis, you are not alone. Maybe experiences during the pandemic have triggered feelings of vulnerability and anxiety you’ve never experienced before, or maybe they have amplified feelings of loneliness and sadness you’ve been living with for some time. Isolation, hybrid working, role transitions, and loss have disrupted our sense of control and stability. Whatever you are going through is understandable and valid. My goal is to help you reclaim balance and order in your life, tapping into your inner strength to function and feel better.

We all experience bumps in the road during life, such as traumas, divorce, family issues, or loss of loved ones. Receiving support and understanding from an outside perspective can give you clarity of how these events shape us and our relationships. I firmly believe that having a collaborative partnership with an empathetic counselor is crucial in this process - one who truly sees and values you. Together, we can map out a better picture of how your life events affected paths made along the way and use these insights to improve your relationships and develop your goals into realities.

I believe in the ability of all people to make changes in their lives for the better. Within the therapeutic relationship, I believe that we are partners - learning together and walking together down the road to wellness. I am not the expert on you and I don't strive to be. I believe that a positive working relationship between therapist and client is essential to the process of change, and that starts with unconditional positive regard. I look forward to working with you - talking with you and to you, rather than at you.

I strive to create a safe, comfortable, and supportive environment for individuals who are confronting issues related to adjustment, anxiety, depression, grief, stress, relationships, and trauma. I specialize in helping individuals who find themselves caught in repetitive patterns of less-than-effective coping and bewildering self-defeat, and those with LGBTQ+ concerns. I will guide and support you every step of the way as, together, we generate insight into the basic structure of your personality, identify and push past defenses, and achieve lasting and deeply rooted change.
