Finding the right therapist can be very confusing and overwhelming! On your initial visit, I will spend a generous amount of time with you on your presenting concerns and your goals for therapy. Having 16 years of experience, I can assess the therapy method most likely to be effective for your specific situation. My specialty is Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) and I find most clients achieve significant progress with this method. However, if I feel CBT is not appropriate for you, I have a number of experienced colleagues in my practice with different methods I can recommend (behaviorhealthny.com).

I strongly believe that therapy is a collaborative undertaking; its success largely depends on you feeling comfortable sharing with me even those feelings and concerns that are hard to talk about in general. I can offer you the warm, non-judgmental atmosphere that you will need to safely explore your experiences and I can also offer an active, engaged participation in the process of understanding what are the causes of your problems and what would lead to a considerable improvement in your situation.

You may be experiencing a period of mental unrest and uncertainty. When you have the space and willingness to reflect on past traumas and experiences to understand their impact on your current circumstances, you gain a new awareness that often leads to powerful insights. As a licensed clinical psychologist who understands the need for inner healing first, it is my goal to support you in identifying core sources of pain, confusion, fear, and stress in order to get to the root cause of the issue. By working with you to form a deeper sense of clarity, I am able to guide you in taking the next steps along your journey of healing.

In therapy, we will dedicate space and time to address what needs to be explored more fully in your life, so that meaningful connections can be made to begin the process of healing. Often times life changes or transitions may leave one wondering how to move forward or cope with difficult emotions that emerge from loss of a loved one, divorce, chronic illness or significant changes that alter the patterns of your life. Each session is a learning experience focused on you to better understand yourself and necessary changes.

Psychological symptoms -- whether sudden or long-lasting -- signal that change is needed, but their messages have to be decoded. My therapy style will provide a safe and professional space to work on difficulties resulting from losses, stress and anxiety, inability to commit and make decisions, dissatisfaction, self-criticism, and interpersonal conflict. I am trained in different modalities including psychoanalytic and cognitive-behavioral therapy, family and couple counseling, and parent-child dynamics. I am supportive but I will not shy away from challenging you to confront the obstacles that impede change.

You know yourself well enough to gauge that you need more support with immediate stressors, self-limiting patterns, or unresolved childhood issues, so you're here looking for a professional. Congratulations! You've already exhibited three elements of a successful therapeutic outcome: increased self-awareness, self-advocacy, and motivation to change. Here's me: I earned an MSW from NYU, trained in evidenced-based practices for trauma/EMDR. studied Poetry Therapy at The Creative Righting Center, completed a Maternal Mental Health Intensive at the Seleni Institute, and in 2020 registered as an Out-of-State Telehealth Provider in FL.

Is online therapy a good option?

To find a therapist who provides telehealth services to clients in your area, click “Online Therapy” on the directory homepage and search by your city or town or your zip code.
What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counselor?
Therapists, psychologists, and counselors are all licensed mental health professionals. In the United States, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counselor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counselors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.
What type of therapist is right for me?
Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist, psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counselor who can offer short-term, targeted support.
Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?
The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counselors. Many have been licensed by the country or state where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counseling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.
What type of therapy is right for me?
The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.
Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?
Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
