Therapists in New York, NY

I am invested in each of my client’s goals and tailor therapy to your specific needs. It’s difficult to seek help, and I recognize how much strength it takes when you reach out. I see that in itself as the first step to feeling better. I am an LCSW-R, the highest level of licensure, and I provide a relaxed space for you to feel comfortable & unjudged, so that you can share thoughts & feelings that are hard to say aloud. Through our therapy, my clients are able to explore new parts of themselves, make decisions, build self-esteem, reach goals, & draw boundaries that they never thought were possible. Pls call/email for a free consult.

Oftentimes, people just need someone to listen to them, to help them work through an issue, and sort out their feelings. That's where I come in as a licensed psychotherapist as well as a medical social worker. I'm skilled at hearing what people are saying and helping them to figure out strategies for improving their situation. I work with a variety of clients ---men, women and children from all sexualities, gender identities, and races to help them with all sorts of issues. My clientele ranges in ages; however, a majority of my clients are in their early 30's.

The therapeutic process allows individuals to share their story in a safe, healing environment. I believe that everyone has a unique story that deserves to be heard. My priority is to make therapy a safe place for my clients to express their genuine thoughts and feelings, without fear of judgement.

**TELEHEALTH SESSIONS ONLY** As they say, the only thing permanent in this world is change. Change, like people, comes in different shapes and sizes. It could be as simple as changing clothes, to more complex ones like a break up, death, or coming out. My goal is to help you manage and deal with changes in your life. By providing you with a safe and comfortable environment and my use of various therapeutic techniques, my hope is that you will feel supported, heard, understood, and obtain the necessary coping skills to help you through this journey called life.

**Licensed in NY and NJ** There comes a time in life where you realize that something is not working. For individuals, this thought has been in the back of your mind but you choose to ignore it. For couples, you may feel like you’ve tried everything and are unsure on what to do for the relationship. Therapy can be a space for this kind of introspection, and I am here to help guide you on this path. As human beings, we are constantly playing tug-of-war with our wants and needs, mixed in with family pressure, social stressors, and life's everyday demands. Take a moment and think about what it is that you want.

My patients want to improve their quality of life, work on relationships, career, adjust to life transitions: high school to college, college to work; moving; career shifts; intimacy and commitment; parenthood; relationship choice and dissolution. I work with patients experiencing low self esteem; loss, trauma and grief; maternal adjustment; infertility; eating disorders; mood fluctuations; feelings of aloneness; and a variety of other symptoms that can be self-defeating. My work is different with each patient and always a collaboration with the goal of a better understanding, allowing a more satisfying life.

I do not believe in the "ideal" client. Often, I have found that clients who present for therapy may identify experiences of depression or anxiety that are secondary to trauma exposure in their childhood or recent history. Moreover, clients often have challenges in their relationships with others which stem from their relationship with self, and from early childhood experiences in their family of origin. These challenges can manifest in many areas.

Welcome. This time of global change and uncertainty makes it more crucial than ever that we have supportive connection and compassion, and we choose to love ourselves. It's my honor to work with people who want to be their authentic selves in the world (rather than who their history tells them they should be), and recognize their right to find meaning, satisfaction, and joy in living. With our relationship as a support, I'll invite you to expand your awareness, uncover childhood messages that may be limiting your life choices, explore your identity and existing roles, and guide yourself toward the self-love that is life-sustaining.

Do you feel stuck in the same patterns of thoughts and behaviors over & over again, & feel lost on where to go next? Is the idea of change making you feel anxious to the point that you would rather not think about it? Let me help you break through these repetitive patterns & try something different. I want to work together to change how you think so that you can leave therapy feeling like your best self. I'll teach you strategies that you will practice out of session to help with those repetitive thoughts & behaviors. Starting therapy with me is kind of like seeing a personal trainer - I'll hold you to the plan we create together.

I am clinical psychologist providing therapy and assessment services in Scarsdale and Greenwich. I treat various conditions, such as depression, anxiety, behavioral problems, social anxiety, and school/work issues. I also focus on life transitions, whether that be a recent move, transition from college, changes in family dynamics, or changes in significant relationships. Furthermore, I have extensive experience in conducting psychological assessments. Therapeutically, I focus on developing teens and adults, where as I provide assessments for all ages.

Have you ever felt like your life is unraveling, the rug is being pulled from beneath you and you are coming undone? What felt safe, now feels dangerous, what was clear is now confusing. Are you struggling in relationship? Finding it difficult to grow up and own your independence? You may be feeling overwhelming anxiety, sadness, shame, fear and/or anger.

My work focuses on clients’ experiences related to intergenerational trauma, racial/cultural identity, gender/sexual identity, emerging adulthood, life transitions, depression, anxiety, grief, and relationships. I specializes in working with adults of color who are facing difficulties with work, education, family dynamics, relationships, self-esteem, and personal identity. I use a trauma-informed approach that is rooted in commitments to anti-oppression and anti-racism, primarily through a psychodynamic lens, integrating approaches based on clients’ needs to create a more holistic healing experience.

Unlike the fantasies marketed to us through various platforms, life often gets hard. Most live through difficult events that may impede on our ability to empower and cultivate our authentic selves. To facilitate exploration and growth, my first priority is offering a safe space. We will build a collaborative therapeutic relationship that thrives on compassion, support, and humor. With it, we will explore and identify roadblocks that may be keeping you from reaching your greatest potential. A variety of mediums can be used, such as talking or drawing, depending on what feels right to you.
