Are you feeling upset, overwhelmed or lacking confidence due to transitions in your life? Adapting to a change, even if it is wanted and expected, can be challenging. Life changes can involve losses such as the end of a relationship, a death or job reversal; but positive changes, like leaving for college, entering the work force, becoming a new parent and relocating can also be stressful and scary. People often fear and avoid change causing them to feel stuck and leading to missed opportunities.

No one would be able to tell that something is wrong just by looking at you. In fact, on the outside, it might look like you are doing great, even thriving. Or maybe it feels as if the things that are bothering you are not that big of a deal in comparison to others. Sometimes, we struggle to put the most painful thoughts, feelings and experiences into words, and so begins the process of psychotherapy. The language of mental health has become commonplace, but how a person experiences mental distress is unique. I can help put language to experience and connect with your authentic self in a meaningful way.

At some point, the tools that we use to get through life can begin to fall short. Your reasons for considering therapy may be clearly or barely understood. You’d like to experience more agency and acceptance, make better sense of your life, and relate more honestly to the people that matter to you. If you’ve come looking for help with your partner, there is both a critical need and a deeply-seeded desire for things to improve between you, and the time has come for to invest in that outcome. You are struggling to function in your current phase of life, whether anew or for a long time now.

DURING THE PANDEMIC-ALL SESSIONS ARE CONDUCTED VIA ZOOM. What motivates me? 90% of divorcing couples do not receive EVEN ONE HOUR of marital therapy, 2/3 of divorces do not involve high-conflict marriages, children of divorce are twice as likely to divorce and 2/3 of divorces occur within the first 10 years of marriage. I have been married for 43 years, father of 4, counseling couples in NYC since 1980 with an 80% success rate in saving couples on the brink. Most couples wait 2 years before seeking any help. For goodness sake, DON'T WAIT! My mantra: I'll be the last person in the room to give up on your marriage

You may feel lonely even when not alone, dissatisfied even as your life is in many ways successful. If you relate to loved ones without the experience of lasting intimacy, you may think that your deepest dreams were not realized, as if a cloud from yesterday is coloring everything differently from the way your life is meant to be. But now is not then, and life does not have to be a theater for reminiscing, loss or disillusionment. It is possible that underneath your suffering lies the sparkle of your true essence.

In the first session, we’ll establish clear goals for what you’d like to focus on and begin creating the road map for doing so. The trajectory of the deeper work reflects the needs of each individual; I feel that my job is to listen to you and provide what you need in the moment, whether it’s a kind ear, more direct guidance, or both. I am always looking to stay current on contemporary perspectives and approaches in clinical practice, particularly in regard to changing views on trauma, women’s experiences, and the mental health of marginalized communities.

I am a clinical psychologist in private practice in Brooklyn, New York. As a therapist I provide a safe and neutral space in which to explore, alongside my patients, the concerns which bring them into therapy. In addition to alleviating symptoms such as those related to depression and anxiety, I find that the therapeutic process almost invariably leads to greater self-understanding, increased agency in navigating life choices, and a favorable shift in the balance of positive and negative emotions.
