I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker focused on working with adults of all ages who are experiencing depression, anxiety, trauma, grief and serious illness. I earned my Master’s in Social Work degree from Columbia University after careers as a lawyer and marketing manager. I have practiced psychotherapy for over five years and also have experience working with older adults in both institutional and community settings, including hospice. I am particularly interested in issues experienced during life transitions, such as career changes, estrangements from family, caring for aging parents, and death of friends and family.

Do you want to feel better, live more fully, and resolve issues that keep you from having what you want in life? Stress, lack of brain or mental fitness, performance anxiety and so on can make life difficult. Neurofeedback is very likely to help. It is often the missing piece for those who have done good work in therapy and other modalities or for those who are not comfortable with talk therapy. Positive results can happen very quickly. If you have questions about how neurofeedback might help you, call 212-877-6923 or email me through Psychology Today or through newyorkneurofeedback.com.

As a clinical psychologist with over 30 years experience, I foster an atmosphere of collaboration with the goal of helping one to begin to understand and change the blocks in life that create stress, difficulties in functioning at work and in relationships, and within one's self. We develop strategies together to change patterns and feelings that create a sense of being "stuck" into more flexible and creative ways of changing those patterns. Treatment can result in more clarity, more optimism, and hope in making vital changes to live more fully.

Whether you're at a crossroads, facing a difficult transition, or are feeling a pull for something in your life to be different, coaching can help you shift your perspective to see new possibilities. Who are you today relative to who you want to be? Some areas of your life likely align with your values and life vision but elsewhere, you feel an uncomfortable gap between where you are and where you’d like to be.

When people are in emotional pain, they usually try to "fix it" themselves. Making the decision to see a therapist often occurs when they have run out of options. I believe that seeking professional help is an action of hope. I can listen to people's pain because of my profound belief that therapy offers a second chance for a more satisfying life. Through the process of therapy, I can offer a more satisfying life to people who are experiencing relationship issues, depression, anxiety, unhappiness with their lives and couples who are having difficulty in their relationships.

Whether it's time-consuming jobs, relationship problems, social obligations, mortgages, or coping with a divorce, it is easy to become detached from your wants and needs.

I believe that our experiences shape who we are and profoundly influence how we feel and relate to the world around us. As a psychodynamic therapist, my goal is to offer you a compassionate space where you can explore these influences more deeply. My approach is rooted in the belief that being seen, validated, and understood is essential to personal growth and healing. I also work with couples in overcoming challenges in connection & intimacy by exploring how their attachment styles, past experiences, and communication habits contribute to recurring patterns and guiding them towards more meaningful and fulfilling relationships.

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.
