I have had significant success helping clients deal with issues such as relationships, loss, aging, trauma, body image, career development, stress management, depression, anxiety, illness, personal growth and what I call "behavioral decluttering", ( illiminating old and unwanted behaviors). My style as a therapist is to help clients identify those areas of their lives which are most troubling and then develop specific goals to ensure that therapy produces important life changing results. The ultimate goal is for clients to eventually serve as their own therapists, applying what they learned in therapy to lead more fulfilling lives.

My counseling approach is eclectic and trauma-informed. A key focus of my practice is building a trusting relationship, creating a space where you feel comfortable to explore yourself and your emotions fully. I integrate Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and techniques from Internal Family Systems (IFS). Through IFS, we will explore the various parts of yourself that make you whole.

Therapy is a collaboration toward your healing and self-exploration. Finding the right person who is attuned and able to respond to your needs is essential. My approach is, above all else, to be with you with thoughtful attention and curiosity. The ways we listen to you together will uncover your natural ability to nourish healthy aspects of the self, and transform wounded or stuck parts. These fragmentations often result in anxiety, depression, creative blocks, issues with self esteem or relationships. I also see couples with difficulties in conflict, communicating, and understanding the other.

You are living the dream. You have a great career, a lovely home, and a solid support network. People all agree that you’re doing great. But you don’t see it. Everyone is proud of you and values what you do; everyone except you, that is. And you’re unsure why there’s such a discrepancy between your self-image and the image of you that everyone else has. You begin to wonder if it stems from an earlier time in your life when you were forced to hide who you really were. You've gotten so used to pretending to be someone else that you feel like a fraud. You’ve lost touch with your authentic self and don’t know how to get it back.

I help clients gain insight into their thoughts and behaviors to help process the past while also finding coping strategies to improve their day-to-day lives. To do this, I integrate different therapeutic modalities, including psychodynamic, person-centered, and cognitive behavioral therapy. I work with clients to identify and unravel negative thinking patterns that may be interfering with their lives and instead replace them with more positive beliefs. I primarily work with adults, helping them adapt and adjust to common life stressors such as work challenges, life transitions, and relationship issues.

It takes courage to ask for help when you are no longer able to manage problems or cope with distress on your own. In this moment you are taking an important step toward resolving these issues. Finding a therapist who is a good fit for you is crucial. I approach treatment primarily using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). However, because humans are beautifully complex and uniquely individual, I understand the importance of tailoring treatment to meet your specific needs, often incorporating techniques from other evidence-based treatments.

Therapy is a space where the past and present can be looked at through new eyes, recontextualized and reunderstood. Far from an academic exercise, a safe therapeutic space that allows for this work can open new possibilities for self-directed living in the world and relating to others. I work with patients to illuminate, clarify, and construct a space where old ways of relating and entrenched patterns of suffering can be understood and moved beyond. While this experience can be challenging, it can also profoundly rewarding.

Life has a intricate way of throwing curveballs to keep us on our toes. It can also be painful and overwhelming at times. Most people, at one point or another, find themselves needing extra support. We often have a desire to avoid difficult emotions and continue with old patterns. I'm here to say, the only way to get a different outcome is to have different input. Therapy is a great place to start the process of accepting growth.

My goal as a clinician is to help you feel free. In treatment, I will invite you to bring your whole self into the room, as you are. Together, we will work to identify the ways in which you feel stuck and shift unhealthy patterns that keep you from moving forward. Whether it be for an acute issue or chronic stress, for symptom management or general exploration, I will help you both accept your authentic self and also courageously change that which no longer serves you. Through this process, I believe you will begin to better know who you are, identify what you want, and live a richer, more meaningful life.

Taking the first step toward transformation is often the hardest part, and you just did it! In life we often arrive at circumstances beyond our understanding. These experiences can be the result of attachment style, unresolved trauma, grief/loss or dissatisfaction with life’s journey. At times these experiences distort our perception, or causing sadness or anxiety. These events may diminish our ability to enjoy life the way we would like to. In practice I have supported adults/children cope with depression, anxiety and trauma.

FAQs - About Therapy and Counseling

How can I find a therapist in New York?

Search for nearby therapists or counselors by inputting your city, town, or suburb; or zip code; or a provider’s name into the search bar.

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’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counselor?

Therapists, psychologists, and counselors are all licensed mental health professionals. In the US, 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.

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 or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counselor who can offer short-term, targeted support.

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.

How much does therapy cost?

The cost of therapy depends on a number of variables, including location and the therapist’s experience and training. On average, a therapy session in the United States could cost between $100 and $200 or more. If you have insurance, the expense of mental health care is typically lower, but it varies based on your insurance plan details and whether you choose an in-network or out-of-network mental healthcare provider.

What are more affordable or low cost therapy solutions?

Many therapists offer sliding scale payments, usually on a limited number of slots, which consists in an agreement between the therapist and a client to pay a reduced rate. Therapists who provide such arrangements often consider the client's income or ability to pay, but the extent of the discount is ultimately at the therapist's discretion. Furthermore, while group therapy may have different goals and benefits compared to individual therapy, it can be a more affordable solution to address certain types of issues.

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.

Is online therapy a good option?

Therapy conducted online can be just as effective as in-person therapy, as long as there is a strong alliance between the client and the therapist. 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.

Are therapy sessions confidential?

Confidentiality is a crucial part of the therapeutic relationship. Therapists in the United States are bound by the regulations set out by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA), which aims to protect sensitive health information. With very few exceptions, a therapist will only discuss their client with others when the client has given their written permission. The instances in which a therapist would be required to disclose personal information are: if a client poses a danger to themselves or others, if the therapist suspects the abuse of a child or an elderly or otherwise dependent adult, or if they are legally forced to by court order. These exceptions to the confidentiality agreement are usually discussed with a client before their first session.
