Therapists in New York, NY

I am a Clinical Psychologist with over 25 years experience in treating people of all ages, from very young children to elderly adults. I have particular experience in treating people considered to be on the autistic spectrum, including Asperger's syndrome, and men and women dissatisfied with the gender to which their bodies were seemingly assigned. I also treat people of all ages with a wide range of conditions, including intense anxiety, depression, developmental disorders and all kinds of difficulties in coping with their work and lives.

I am a clinical psychologist with an extensive research background. Therefore, my therapeutic approach includes evidence-based techniques such as psychodynamic psychotherapy, CBT, and DBT. My hope is that mental health treatment becomes part of your routine, the same way we make plans to exercise or see a primary care specialist. Warmth and compassion I believe are keys to establishing a therapeutic sense of safety and trust. Then we can explore deeper issues such as shame, fear, sadness, and self-doubt. Together, we will make goals that lead to the changes you want in life.

In my practice I work with clients of all backgrounds and age groups; and I have a specialty in adolescence and young adulthood. I enjoy supporting clients as they navigate growing up and becoming adults in this complex world. My approach is grounded in Psychodynamic Theory and the belief that many of our problems are rooted in thinking patterns, behaviors, and emotional responses that we developed early in life. My work is eclectic and collaborative. I draw on many modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Trauma Informed Treatment, Family Systems Theory and Motivational Interviewing.

Starting psychotherapy can be an exciting and anxiety-provoking process as you take active steps to make changes in your life and relationships. I approach psychotherapy as a collaboration and work in an integrative way, tailoring interventions to individual needs. I believe that therapy's aim is not only to make improvements but also to manage disappointments. To this end, we can simultaneously engage in meaningful explorations while developing important coping skills, including mindfulness, emotion regulation, and distress tolerance. I offer individual, couples, and family psychotherapy to adults, children, and adolescents, and work with different family and relationship configurations.

I have been a therapist in practice at this location since 1998. I have post Masters training in psychoanalysis. In addition, I am a Substance Abuse Professional (SAP), have run an outpatient mental health facility and have a long history of clinical supervisory practice.

Let’s talk about what we do here and how we make healing happen. First and foremost, this is a collaboration between you and me. Why are you here and who are you? For many people, finding the answers to those two questions are already comforting enough that they might complete their therapy journey right there and then. But for others, knowing is not enough. You still need the tools to work through a depressive episode, or anxiety, or to deal with some relationship issues. That’s what we will do together – understanding the cause of your suffering, accepting its existence and finding ways to make it more bearable.

My aim as a clinical psychologist is to help my clients lead more fulfilling and meaningful lives. We work together to understand and work through obstacles that have been hampering them. I’ve seen many times how that work can not only relieve distress but make possible richer and more satisfying relationships, new ways of dealing with difficulties, and a new sense of self.
