My approach is engaged, eclectic and integrative.
I've maintained a psychotherapy private practice in Lower Manhattan for more than eighteen years, and about ten years ago moved to an office in a loft in TriBeCa. As a former corporate lawyer, I've developed a sub-specialty in working with attorneys and finance professionals around career issues, but I'm also gay and have worked with LGBT people and all sorts of other people around just about anything. I welcome one and all.

I'm eclectic, borrowing from many modalities.
Like all therapists, I'm not for everyone. I don't fit the stereotypical image, walk to the beat of a different drum, maybe like yourself. I try to offer a balance of strength and compassion. I don't want to be solely soft and safe, nor exclusively forceful and aggressive. The art is in finding that balance and offering you that unique mix. You'll probably be divulging some pieces of yourself that are raw and weighty and maybe even a bit scary. This can be difficult, I know, I was a client before I was ever a therapist.

My clinical approach is eclectic, ranging from psychodynamic and psychoanalytically oriented, to cognitive, relational, inter-personal and insight focused, fitting your therapeutic needs, adaptable to what works best for you.
Therapy is about healing and self growth. It is about making decisions and achieving life goals. It is about bettering relationships and building meaningful ties. It's about working through, and living without the pain of loss, depression and anxiety. In an atmosphere of safety, trust and non-judgement, I will help you navigate those difficulties which foster anxiety, depression and confusion, recognizing the often, central role of trauma in such challenges. I will assist in the process of gaining insight, while making decisions which breed personal and professional success. I will help in cultivating and improving relationships.

I treat a wide spectrum of conditions including mood and anxiety disorders (e.g., bipolar and depressive disorders, panic and phobias), ADHD, marital issues and PTSD. My niche is in personality disorders (e.g., borderline and narcissistic personality disorder). I have extensive experience treating trauma sequelas, dissociative disorders and helping individuals overcome grief. My practice also includes treatment of eating disorders in adults (e.g., bulimia) and parasuicidal behaviour. Although my practice is mainly guided by empirical modalities, I tend to approach each client in an eclectic manner to customize treatment as needed.

My approach is eclectic.
My approach is comprehensive and integrates the tools offered by my clinical training in psychology, Jungian dream analysis as well as my knowledge of spiritual disciplines.
Experience has taught me that each of us possess an inner intelligence that supports our efforts toward living a meaningful and productive life. As a therapist, I consider it my role to evoke and nurture this positive resource.
I have found that my emphasis on supporting what is right in us produces better results than a narrow focus on what is wrong.
I have learned to listen to the whole person.

By better understanding who you are and where you want to go, you can live a happier more fulfilling life. My approach is supportive and empathic but, above all, practical. While I believe an understanding of the past is essential, positive change occurs in the present. I work with individuals and couples who are interested in seeking a better understanding of themselves and each other and the skills involved to know oneself and communicate more effectively.

Putting thoughts and emotions into words can have surprising and powerful results. There is a freedom in saying out loud what we have withheld or only said or ourselves. We begin to see our world from new perspectives, develop new ways of being in the world, and begin to make new choices. The purpose of a therapist is to be the person in your life undergoing this process with you, as a companion and guide. This is how I understand my work.

I work with each client to identify sources of distress and dissatisfaction in their lives, and to overcome obstacles to living a healthy and happy life. I begin therapy by gaining a clear understanding of your strengths as well as areas for growth, and building a strong working alliance. Together we identify therapy goals and formulate a plan to achieve them. I combine cognitive-behavioral, mindfulness, DBT and humanistic approaches to tailor a unique therapy plan for each individual. My approach involves listening carefully and asking questions to help guide you to greater understanding about yourself and to make the changes that you seek.

I have 25 years experience working productively with people of diverse backgrounds, ages, and sexual orientations. Our job together is to identify dysfunctional patterns that contribute to—even perpetuate—your difficulties. The main focus of therapy is to remove inner and outer obstacles that prevent you from reaching your goals and having better relationships. Please note, after years of counseling and assessment in offices, I‘ve recently moved into a different space: video. Active listening in a safe, private setting is foundational to this work. I’ve learned that the catalytic elements of good therapy can thrive via video too.

If you feel stuck in the same unproductive problems and feelings around work, relationships, or any other issue that's important to you, I may be able to help you get to a better place. Many of my patients have considerable insight into their situation, but most find it difficult to change unproductive patterns, or "will" themselves into feeling better. You can break out of the circles of behavior that leave you feeling frustrated or overwhelmed. As a therapist, it is my job to help you gain awareness of unconscious roadblocks and help you tap into your natural ability to heal.

Psychotherapy can be used to assist people who are feeling stuck or unfulfilled as well as help those struggling with stressful life transitions; experiences often accompanied by depression and anxiety. Through my straightforward and active approach, I help my clients enhance their self-awareness and develop important skill sets to navigate difficult circumstances.

I highly value the connection I have with my clients and I make every effort to foster a therapeutic environment that feels natural and authentic.

Are you someone in a creative industry struggling with anxiety and self doubt? Maybe you have a strong need to be accepted by others and never quite feel good enough. It is hard to feel “good enough” in a job that requires you to be the best in order to land a role or get ahead in your career. If you feel like you’re struggling with perfectionism, imposter syndrome, creative blocks, and anxiety in your life, do not feel alone. It’s already hard enough to live in this fast paced competitive environment. Why suffer through it?

We all seek happiness and want to rid ourselves of suffering so that we can enjoy our lives. Yet this seemingly simple goal is often the hardest one to reach. I strive to help people identify those things in the present and in their past that keep them from reaching their goals, and to creatively change patterns of feeling and thinking that get in the way. I have a special interest in working with non-conformist people in creative professions.
