Therapists in SoHo, New York, NY

While my first area of "expertise" is surely in substance use, abuse, and addictions, however, I also specialize in mind and body healing, and helping people to feel more empowered and in charge over their lives. With many therapeutic "tools" to draw from, I work with collaboratively with clients to determine what it is they are looking for from therapy, and which therapeutic path will likely be best for what they are looking for.

My approach to therapy draws from an eclectic mix of evidence-based practices to provide services that are both individualized and collaborative.

I have years of experience working with entrepreneurs, researchers, educators, & first responders.

There is great value in asking for help. It tells me you have the desire to live a more authentic life, to develop the skills to manage its ups and downs more effectively, and to deepen connection- within the self and with the world around you. If you find yourself feeling defeated, or caught in a cycle that is not serving you, I invite you to engage in this process with me. Together, we will work to untangle what has gotten in the way of living your best life so that you can begin to do so.

All humans struggle. It is the human condition. Though, to admit, talk about, work on or through complexities is typically met with resistance. I am open, authentic and experienced.

Looking for new ways to grow your life? My practice is inspired by holistic and integrative therapies, and my years as a musician as much as by my training at Columbia University and the American Cognitive Behavior Institute. But it's your needs, not my interests that will determine the shape of our work together. I use both empirical techniques and creative conversation to tailor therapy to best help the people I see. What matters is you getting the help you need.

In an age of ambivalence, avoidance and anesthesia, I recognize a need to slow down, be centered and get mindful of who we are to then decide what we are doing, where we are going and why. For many (men in particular!), this numbness extends beyond what we do and seeps into our emotional, mental and spiritual lives as we search for ways to be braver, bolder, and better. I employ a balanced mind-body-spirit approach to support those facing “substance” abuse struggles, anxiety/depression, life changes, career moves, relationship issues, grief and general life transitions.

I believe that every person is equipped with the ability to overcome challenges in their lives, however, sometimes, we get stuck. My goal is to help you grow and gain insight into yourself and your struggles while acquiring the tools you need to face these struggles, and new struggles, on your own.
