Therapists in Hell's Kitchen, New York, NY
First, I invite you to learn more about me and my work by visiting my website. If you think we may be a match, we can arrange a complimentary 15-minute consultation. I offer this because I believe entering psychotherapy can be one of the most important, life-altering decisions you ever make. Your decision to go into therapy probably was not easy, and the choice of a therapist deserves even greater consideration. You must, in addition to evaluating a therapist’s training and experience, find the right person. Success depends on a good “match” requiring empathy, trust, safety, and respect, sometimes spiced with humor and playfulness.

Maybe you struggle with relationships. You may feel that your life lacks direction or that something is missing, but you're not sure what it is. Maybe your mood or worry has gotten in the way of reaching out. I offer a collaborative environment where we explore the past and present with our focus firmly on the future. This can help better understand and revise patterns in your life that cause distress. I have worked with people who struggled with substance abuse/misuse, depression, anxiety, perinatal mood and anxiety disorders, major life transitions, creative blocks,identity issues, and parenting difficulties.

Let's be real, the idea of starting or resuming therapy can be terrifying. For first timers, the thought of sharing personal information with a virtual stranger can be anxiety provoking and for those who have gone to therapy in the past, but had a bad experience, there is probably reluctance to try it again. I understand, because once upon a time, I was just a regular guy looking for some help and sought out therapy, My first experience was less than amazing, but eventually I gave it another shot. My experience was so positive that I quit my job as an investment banker and went back to school to become a therapist.

Quite simply, I understand the radical value of therapy. Just as you might strengthen and maintain your physical body through time devoted to exercise, consistent focus on your attitudinal muscles can strengthen your connection to yourself and others.

I recognize how the healing tools cultivated in therapy can sustainably impact your resiliency.

I’m a licensed psychologist in NY, NJ, DC and 41 other US States. My journey here is deeply personal. Growing up, I often felt out of place, struggling to understand my emotions and navigate the challenges of adolescence and young adulthood. I know how isolating it can feel to believe something is wrong with you. That experience fuels my commitment to helping others find clarity, connection, and self-compassion as they face their own challenges.

There is no single way to live a fulfilling life. All of us need a safe place to talk about what we're experiencing. Expressing your thoughts and feelings to another person is an essential part of transformation. This is especially true when done in a therapeutic environment where you can explore new ideas and make your own decisions about your life without fear of intrusion from the other. My clinical intention is to help clients see and experience themselves in a new way.

With my 25 years of experience in private practice, I can usually help people start to feel better quickly. Since 2005 I've taught multiple courses at Weill Cornell and Albert Einstein medical colleges. I work particularly well with people who are skeptical of, or intimidated by, the possibility of starting talk therapy. I have helped many people who had received limited or no benefit from previous therapists, other doctors, or medications. It has been my life's work to facilitate people's growth and evolution in ways that have brought them optimism, clarity, new life skills, resilience, gratitude, more joy, and peace of mind.

As your therapist, I will provide empathy, compassion and guidance to help you and/or your family work through your challenges.

Therapy can mean a lot of things to a lot of people. I view therapy as an intentional and protected space to engage with oneself, cultivate understanding, and move toward growth. I value work that allows for reflection, curiosity, and learning how to tolerate the ambiguity around the challenges and joys we face during our lifetimes. My goal is to provide structure in moments that feel more chaotic, uncertain, or disconnected, as well as how to lean into moments of peace and joy. My approach incorporates training from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Psychodynamic Therapy.

For almost 40 years, I have been helping clients deal with, and resolve a wide range of problems including anxiety, depression, relationship, and interpersonal difficulties.

Treatment is based on an assessment of which approach would be best suited for a particular person and problem at that time.
Additionally, I have expertise in working with health and wellness issues. Over the years I have assisted clients and their loved ones dealing with medical problems, life threatening illnesses, chronic ones, and bereavement issues.
