Are you struggling with debilitating anxiety because of chronic family and relationship stress, and perfectionism? Are you trying to work through grief and loss of someone, or even an opportunity you waited so long for? You have come to the right place. I can give you a space in which you can process your emotions and find clarity again. Your experiences shape how you treat yourself and how you have relationships.

It is through challenges that we can come to know ourselves better and gain insight into making the most of the lives we have. Therapy is a unique space to explore obstacles, become clear about what you want in life and how to get there.

I had received my undergraduate degree in Psychology and minor in Education in 2004 from Touro College, and obtained my Clinical Social Worker degree from Wurzweiler School of Social Work at Yeshiva University in 2006. I had worked with adults and the elderly. I specializes in depression, anxiety disorder, adjustment disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder, grief and bereavement, self-love and care. I also worked at a Community Health Home for people with various mental health issues.

Whether you are feeling stuck in relationship patterns, overwhelmed by big life transitions or losses, having difficulties prioritizing yourself, or stressed from daily life- therapy is a great way to find clarity and grow. I offer a supportive and safe space where you can explore healing and create lasting positive change. By exploring your relationship dynamics, behavior patterns, and your inner dialogue we can gain insight into how they are obstacles to your personal goals. Our collaborative work will help guide you on a path to mental and emotional wellness through self-compassion and gaining tools to cope.

The stress of trying to manage it all when it feels like you're drowning is exhausting! I specialize in working with women feeling overwhelmed by relationship issues, parenting challenges, a devastating loss, or traumatic event. My clients often struggle with feeling depleted; they're tired, their thoughts keep racing, the anxiety's overwhelming, and they can feel really stuck and alone with their pain. It's a lot! And when life stressors occur it's ok to not feel ok, it's human. Some who are used to doing things on their own may question why healing would be any different and so continue to suffer. You don't need to go it alone.

Whether you are a single adult, a partner, or a parent, we all struggle with stressors such as feelings of anxiety and depression, low self-esteem, financial pressures, and difficult relationships. Therapy can be a useful way to explore where you feel stuck, and discover alternate ways to manage and cope so that you can live the life you envision for yourself. I use a collaborative, holistic, and relational approach to create a safe and brave environment where individuals, couples, and families can explore themselves and their relationships. l use interventions from various therapies, such as CBT and mindfulness.

We all go through periods of intense stress, worry, or sadness. If you're finding it difficult to cope, therapy can help you grow through these experiences, toward fulfillment. In my work, I've found that people are most open to exploration and change when they have a partner they trust in that process. When a client brings me their story, we work together to understand it, through trust, humor, creativity, and perseverance.

Life experiences can bring pain and conflict resulting in depression, anxiety and coping with substances. I frequently hear the expression of loneliness, emptiness and feeling unfulfilled in people's lives and the sadness, disappointment and anger over relationships with themselves, partners, family and friends that fail to satisfy those needs. Experience has taught me that feeling heard and understood generates a sense of hope and stimulates movement toward insight through exploration and examination of one's inner life. Psychodynamic psychotherapy offers the framework and space for this work, leading to corrective emotional experiences and a more satisfying life and relationships.

These challenging times can strain our abilities to cope. You may find you are more fatigued or more irritable; many are feeling the stress in important relationships. It has been an especially difficult time for children and teens, and their parents. All of this makes it a good time to get some consultation and support. I believe that healing starts with self compassion. I can help you to cultivate a compassionate curiosity that honors your strengths and explores the areas where you would like to change and grow.

Take a deep breath, you made it here. Good for you for taking the first step to ask for help. I know that it can feel daunting and scary. I am here as a gentle guide to help you understand yourself better and listen to your unique needs. Perhaps you are feeling anxious, overwhelmed by life's stressors or you are going through a big life transition. Maybe you feel unable to set healthy boundaries with family or friends or want to learn better ways to cope with tough emotions or stress. I am here to help you feel more balanced and grounded and use your emotions as helpful information rather than feel at odds with them.

I’ve been a practicing licensed psychologist for more than 40 years, helping people become the best versions of themselves. I believe talking to a non judgmental professional who understands your problems can help you gain perspectives on issues that may seem overwhelming and hopeless. I think the key to success is developing a strong relationship with the therapist so that we become a team. Together I help you help yourself; lead a happier, wiser and more fulfilling life. And i participate actively during our session so that therapy becomes a warm and safe environment to grow in all the ways you desire. .

I believe that we never lose our creative spark, and that with the right tools, it can be accessed and implemented as a healing force. With creative expression, we can imagine real life scenarios through multiple lenses, and look into the past and the future through different perspectives. No matter your age, art-making can be used to make sense of our emotional landscape, foster self-compassion and organize our thoughts, which can get jumbled in the hustle and bustle of life. I utilize an integrative approach that marries both Art Therapy and traditional psychotherapy. No experience using art materials is needed!

Hey there! I am happy to see you've made it. Making the choice in addressing your mental health is the first step to showing up for yourself. I'm sure there have been times where you haven't been able to show up for yourself. Maybe you've been finding yourself feeling too stressed, too worried, too tired, "too" much of many things to feel connected to yourself, to your relationships, or to your work. Whatever you are feeling "too much of", I am prepared to meet you where you're at, accompanied by kindness and warmth.
