When emotional engagement and support are established, the therapist/client relationship can work to facilitate recovery from many conditions as diverse as depression, anxiety, grief and loss, chronic stress, and even psychosomatic disorders.
Psychotherapy works in a way that other relationships can’t to help you detach from your struggle and face reality in non-judgmental space to find relief from emotional distress, develop adaptive skills, and find practical solutions. I've had extensive training in multiple modalities and use an amalgam of methods rooted in different psychological theories.

I love working with couples and individuals who are interested in growth and transformation, who design on their own terms.
I recognize the need for both mental health solutions and life coaching. I tend to blend the two with positive psychology that brings goals into focus and clarity.

My goal is to provide a safe space for individuals dealing with anxiety, depression, life transitions and trauma, as well as for couples and families facing relationship difficulties, where with warmth and non-judgment we can work collaboratively under a relational, systemic perspective into improving the quality of those relationships that shape their lives
You are probably here because you find yourself feeling stuck, with no control over what you are going through, being unkind to yourself, unable to stop your mind from racing or going into the worst scenarios. Fighting this can be frustrating and exhausting. You don’t have to do it alone. Through our work together you will be able to have a better understanding of your own patterns of behavior, why they are there, how to catch yourself falling into them and how to break with them when you consider they are not being helpful anymore.

I'm a clinical/health psychologist, inter-faith minister and hypnotherapist with over 30 years of experience working with infants, toddlers, children, teenagers, couples, geriatrics, family, special needs, cultural issues, food, weight issues, viruses, autoimmune diseases & nutritional needs.
Beliefs drive behaviors and, as a result often people complain that they repeat unproductive behaviors that do not lead to healing. Breaking this cycle is easy and by altering our perceptions, we break the cycle of repeating behaviors which in turn could influence others in our life in more positive and productive ways.

Problems like depression, anxiety, impulsivity, uncontrollable anger, guilt, or low self-confidence can be as painful, if not more so, than physical illness; they can also create serious relationship and work difficulties.
For the last 15 years I have been clinical faculty of the Weill Cornell Medical College and the Albert Einstein College of Medicine where I teach medical doctors courses each year on counseling skills, personality types, and evidence based talk therapy research. I work to help free individuals from fixed, long-standing, unsatisfying patterns of living.

I see both individuals and couples who want to make meaningful changes.
Therapy should feel collaborative, as together we explore what is most important to you, and find tools to manage stress and difficult emotions. I have 25 years experience helping people overcome trauma, cope with loss, or meet the challenges of transition in any form (i.e., a divorce, a relationship ending, a career change, or a move to a new environment).

People often report repeating behaviors that feel natural to them but that result in the same painful outcomes: dating the same type of partner, getting into the same arguments, feeling the same anxiety or ambient-sadness.
I work with patients to understand and decalcify these patterns as well as the deep systems of meaning that sustain them. This dual concentration helps us to both cultivate a sense of self that aligns more intentionally with who you want to be and make sure that tomorrow feels better than today.

I use a psychodynamic approach which integrates spirituality and psychotherapy, helping people who struggle with depression, loneliness, sexual abuse, drug addiction. I help couples and families learn to communicate their needs and feelings effectively. I work with gay men and lesbians seeking to integrate their sexual identity, as well as those working to enhance their relationships. I work extensively with people suffering from chronic illnesses (e.g. AIDS) and those who care for them. I am a Member of AAMFT, ACPE, and EGPS and have certificates in Pastoral Psychotherapy, Marriage and Family Therapy and Group Psychotherapy.

My approach is informed by a belief in each individual's capacity to understand themselves and to use that self-knowledge to participate more fully in relationships, including the therapeutic relationship of patient and analyst.
I am available for psychoanalytic psychotherapy to address life struggles, manage anxiety, depression, dissatisfaction and indecision. It is a brave and optimistic step to begin therapy which has the power to heal old wounds, renew self confidence, and expand emotional experience. I have a special interest in helping individuals and families improve communication regarding adoption and donor assisted reproduction. It is never too late to talk with children. Adult resistance to these conversations can reflect difficult life experiences, especially regarding infertility, including experiences of shame and embarrasment.

I look forward to building a rich therapeutic relationship and assisting you through this journey.
When life presents us with challenges - illness, transitions, trauma - it can be difficult to process our suffering and overwhelming emotions. If you have been feeling discouraged, depressed, or anxious, you are not alone. My aim as a therapist is to create a space in which we navigate through these challenges together to facilitate healing and growth. I am attuned to the fact that all people are unique and invite clients of all races, nationalities, gender identities, sexual orientations, abilities and body sizes.

I view therapy as a collaborative process where we work together to navigate your life challenges—whether it’s managing anxiety, grief, depression, relationship issues, substance use, or major life transitions.
I offer culturally sensitive, affirming care to all, including the LGBTQ+ community, and bring specialized experience in maternal health. My personal experience with motherhood enriches my practice, allowing me to bring a deeper level of empathy and understanding.

Through the use of dynamic- and mindfulness-based approaches, I can help you move forward, beyond painful and self-defeating patterns of the past: to move on from the unsatisfying relationship or the job that is driving you crazy.
After a 25 year career in a major hospital I am very happy with a small sliding scale practice in my home office. I specialize in working with artists, creatives, college students, LBGTQ+ persons, and others who live non-traditional lives. I have a straight-forward, solution-focused, non-judgmental, and supportive approach, incorporating humor and irreverence when indicated. Therapy does not have to be a sullen place to focus on one’s negatives. Nor does it have to be long-term and costly. Join me in an engaged, interactive, lively journey toward your goals.
