Finding the right therapist can be very confusing and overwhelming! On your initial visit, I will spend a generous amount of time with you on your presenting concerns and your goals for therapy. Having 16 years of experience, I can assess the therapy method most likely to be effective for your specific situation. My specialty is Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) and I find most clients achieve significant progress with this method. However, if I feel CBT is not appropriate for you, I have a number of experienced colleagues in my practice with different methods I can recommend (behaviorhealthny.com).

I am a cognitive behavioral therapist with experience helping children and adults feel better emotionally, behave more functionally and experience long-lasting change. I specialize in anxiety and depression, and employ a present-oriented, structured therapy that involves problem solving, mindfulness and looking at things from a new, more helpful perspective. I also employ outcome measures so we can closely gauge our progress, without having to make vague estimates. I studied applied psychology at New York University, and went on to receive my Doctor of Psychology at St. John's University where I received intensive CBT training.

Step into the realty that YOU are the Ancient, Eternal, Infinite, One, and Unchanging LIGHT shining through the flesh-and-blood prism known as the self. In other words, YOU are the Driver, and what YOU see in the mirror is the Vehicle. Like every good mechanic, I listen to both Driver and Vehicle. Remember: You are NOT anxious, depressed, or fearful, your vehicle is.

If you’re lost, disconnected, pondering big questions, or trying to recover from these “unprecedented times,” you’re in good company. Together, we can create the change you seek. I offer a nonjudgmental, supportive space to face doubt and fear, say the unsayable, and do the uncomfortable (but fulfilling) work of growing emotionally and spiritually. We will collaborate to increase self awareness, clarify goals, redirect unhealthy patterns, and discover new possibilities and perspectives. I’m a former health journalist who listens with curiosity, asks key questions, and helps you find the authentic story you're meant to live.

In my years of practicing I have found that everyone can profit from counseling, psychotherapy, or psychoanalysis, depending on their need. I collaborate with my patients to help them better understand and remove the psychological and social barriers that inhbit them from being content and satisfied with their lives.
I treat many kinds of patients in many psychological and life situations. I have found that many problems have been life-long, and unfortunately only when they becone too painful and interfere with their lives do people look for help. Sometimes these problems are most acutely felt at times of transition.

My method aims at deep changes in the personality so that your troubling symptoms are relieved in a more permanent way. Often, you don't know why your life feels so unsatisfying,why relationships feel troubled or why you cannot seem to choose what will make you happy.Or there may be just a particular area of difficulty in a life that seems to be going rather well.

In my years of experience I have come to realize so much about living in the world robs us of our ability to acknowledge our own magic. Therapy should be a safe place for you to begin to reclaim that magic and learn how to discover your own power. By using a "bottom to top" approach to identify how long held, negative beliefs, have kept you reliving and repeating the past, you can finally live in the present. I provide a safe, non judgemental space for you to work through trauma and reclaim the power inherent in you.
