Humanistic Therapists in Upper East Side, New York, NY

Every person who has arrived at the decision to seek therapy has had a unique path that has led to this point. Many struggle with the overwhelming demand of coping in a world with mounting pressures. Some may have noticed that their friends and family are commenting more often on their drinking habits. Others may be dealing with relationship problems that are stemming from unresolved issues from early in life. I believe that every person is trying the best they can in their unique circumstances, and everyone the potential to heal when given the right support. Therapy can be a tool that fuels self-reflection and fosters change.

I have a holistic view in healing and deeply value the client-therapist relationship. Creativity is the true essence of psychotherapy. I value clients partnership in their healing and invite them to explore their inner insight and creativity along with my therapeutic guidance.

When you feel stuck or experience anxiety, insecurity, sadness, a loss of meaning, or complex feelings that are not easy to explain and to understand - it helps to talk about it and to process emotions in a safe, respectful, and supportive co-created environment. You know intrinsically that there’s a way out of painful experiences, but you don’t know which path to take, or sometimes life is going well, but you feel that it has much more to offer. Whatever the obstacle to your desired life: transition, loss, trauma, stress, identity crisis, or difficult relationship, there is always a way forward.

My style is collaborative and compassionate; My clients tell me that I am comfortable to be with, and easy to talk to.

My work is eclectic and grounded in theory - including, Humanistic (“Whole Child’, "Whole Self"), and Psycho-dynamic (with attention to the interpersonal relationship of client and therapist as a model for meaning-making and self-reflection.).
