When people are in emotional pain, they usually try to "fix it" themselves. Making the decision to see a therapist often occurs when they have run out of options. I believe that seeking professional help is an action of hope. I can listen to people's pain because of my profound belief that therapy offers a second chance for a more satisfying life. Through the process of therapy, I can offer a more satisfying life to people who are experiencing relationship issues, depression, anxiety, unhappiness with their lives and couples who are having difficulty in their relationships.

I take a person-centered, motivational approach in my practices. I enjoy working with individuals to navigate every kind of challenge, whether they are personal, with family, or with peers.

While I believe that pharmacology may be a necessary aid for many, I understands there may be concerns, and is also supportive of those who wish to seek healing through non-medicated means. I am willing to help you find the most appropriate and comfortable option.

Whether it be the pursuit of change and growth, or difficulty coping with chronic physical, psychological, or social issues, seeking psychotherapy can be the first step towards achieving resilience, purpose, and a better quality of life. I work with individuals, families and couples to identify areas of improvement, foster change, cope with symptoms, and maintain progress. For many, a history of trauma (emotional/ physical/ sexual/ financial abuse, abandonment, bullying, domestic violence, etc) or medical difficulties (chronic/terminal illness, pain) can complicate treatment needs. Cases of grief, mood and anxiety disorders can respond differently to psychotherapy when these elements are present.

Are you feeling anxious, overwhelmed and lacking motivation? Talking about what wears you down and organize your thoughts in a safe space will be helpful. I practice interpersonal psychotherapy focused on problem solving in the here and now, which also incorporates thought changing therapy. Life transitional issues are a natural source of stress, but also create opportunity to change. My therapeutic goal is to focus on how to change your thoughts about your circumstances to enable you to move forward fruitfully and with new and changed perspective. We cannot choose our history, but we can manage it better.

As a clinical therapist, my purpose is to center clients in the awareness that they MATTER in the world.

My office provides a safe environment for clients to speak openly; to identify and resolve personal challenges and conflicts in order to rediscover and reach their fullest potential - leading to a joyous, healthier life.

Do you find it hard to feel at ease in your body and mind? Do you feel stuck in patterns that are not working for you, but not sure why they’re happening or how to change them? You’re not alone in feeling this way. If you have endured trauma at any point in your life, you may now struggle to feel safe in everyday situations. You may notice that a sense of danger keeps you on edge at all times. You don’t need to have a near death experience or witness extreme violence to suffer from the impact of trauma. I can help you move towards a version of your life where emotional and physical discomfort no longer dictate your decisions.

I am a Psychotherapist, Life Coach, and Consultant. In a career that began twenty-five years ago in the Middle East, now established in NY, I have seen clients from every conceivable background who have sought nurturing guidance to face trauma, anxiety, grief and sadness. Often, whether working with persons suffering from loss or separation, abuse victims, veterans, refugees, or families of substance abusers, I have witnessed that moment of clarity in a client when they realize there is actually hope for a better, more satisfying life. This, I believe, is the essence of therapy and I strive to smooth the path towards and beyond it.
