Teletherapy for Lincoln Square - New York, NY

Are you experiencing low mood, no joy and lack of motivation, anxious thoughts, or uncontrollable worries? Are your emotions feeling distressing or overwhelming? Is your transition into motherhood not what you expected? Are you seeking support through a divorce or a separation? Do you need help navigating a significant loss, or perhaps you are seeking healing from a trauma? Or maybe you are just feeling “not quite right” and would like help figuring out what is going on and how to move into a better place? If your answer was yes to any of the above, therapy can help you.

Life is messy. It’s easy to feel scared, anxious, overwhelmed, out of balance and alone. I am passion about listening, providing support & helping, in a comfortable and secure environment. Therapy should be safe and judgement free. Whether making a decision, small change, or large life decision, I know it’s not easy.

My work with you will be targeted at the areas you most want to focus on. Those areas may be opening creative roadblocks; changing life directions; strengthening coping skills; help with grieving; or other life changes and traumas. You stand at the vanguard of what changes you wish to see. The partnership we form together will always be supportive. I do not take insurance, but have a sliding scale and a complimentary 20 minute intake to discuss our possibilities for working together.

Creative practices can often be a safer and more direct way of expressing, experiencing and understanding the most challenging emotions. I'm a creative arts therapist who has been working in clinical settings in the NYC area for over five years. I integrate my experience as a performer in Jazz, improvised and World music as well as my zen practice of over ten years into a unique and effective approach to therapy. Using both verbal psychotherapy and creative art mediums in a safe and supportive environment I work to guide the therapeutic process towards achieving a client's unique goals.

Feelings have a way of getting to us despite our best efforts. Cultural prescriptions for navigating our emotional experiences can easily lead to confusion and frustration. The recent crisis has further shaken the foundations of our security and stirred up previously hidden inner conflicts for many. If you are struggling with feelings of sadness, anxiety, fear, loss, insecurity or relationship difficulties psychotherapy is likely an excellent option for you.

I have been a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist for a very long time. I have much experience working with people of all ages, backgrounds, sexual orientation, and relationship issues. I do this work because it is very satisfying. And it is “work” for my clients as well. I know that my clients need courage and self awareness to recognize when they need to reach out for help. I consider the goal of therapy is to empower my clients to find solutions to solve the problems in their life—to get unstuck from unhealthy patterns in their life—unresolved and repetitive conflicts.

With 48 years experience as a therapist in New York, I continue to help people cope with a variety of issues from stress and anxiety to grief and depression, from relationships and intimacy to family dynamics, from trauma and abuse to self-esteem, resentments and forgiveness, from guilt and shame for who we are and what we have done to how we are treated, from parenting issues to feelings of isolation and loneliness, from post-traumatic stress reactions to issues of aging and compassion fatigue. These and other issues have increased for many since Covid.

Personal Growth: I can help you to develop tools and strategies to manage life transitions, decisions to be made, family and relationship challenges. Working together, we can find ways to address your stressors and help you to cope better. If you have faced trauma, I can help you process and move toward personal growth. I am an experienced therapist who will help you navigate career, family and 'regular life' and the 'day to day' as you move from one period of life to the next. I will assist you in thinking about how to maximize the positives in your life; and work with the difficulties facing you.

I believe that it takes courage to ask for help, and I am here to accompany you on this path. Everything you need is already within you, and together we will develop tools to assist you in harnessing your inner strength in an effort to live your most fulfilling and authentic life. I believe that by working together, we can identify and enhance your strengths while exploring strategies that allow you to address the root causes of your identified challenges and build meaningful social connections.

Grief, loss, illness and caregiving can change the ways we feel about ourselves, our lives and our future. The impacts can be immense, and intersect with everything else we've been through in our lives. Many people find that working with a specialized therapist offers an additional level of support when it's difficult to cope. Whether you or someone close to you were recently diagnosed or living with an illness for years, caring for someone else, work in healthcare or whether you lost someone or something important to you, please reach out.

You come home from a long day at work, expecting to be greeted by him. The best part of your day for the past 12 years has been your dog’s excitement on your return to the house. But he’s not there. You wake up each morning, still surprised that he’s not at the foot of your bed. Your best friend is gone, and you don’t know how to live without him. People offer advice like, “Just get a new pet.” or “He was only a dog.” But that just shows how little they understand what you’re going through. If only there were someone to help you navigate this loss. A place where you won’t be judged for feeling this way about “only a dog.”

My practice is for those who are looking for a safe and affirming space to search for solutions to life’s challenges. To me, there can never be a one-size-fits-all approach to humans, and therapy should be uniquely tailored to individual history, needs, and goals. Together, we will take a closer look at the interplay of forces and experiences that shaped your sense of self. We will look for the root causes of your challenges, untangle lasting negative patterns and zero in on your unique strengths. Together, we can tackle the feelings of worthlessness, disconnection, loneliness, guilt, and grief.
