Intervention Therapists in New York, NY
It's normal to feel overwhelmed when trying to manage the expectations we set for ourselves and that others set for us. Given the busy nature of our lives, there is little time to process what these expectations mean to us and why they can cause us distress. Therapy can give space for life to slow down, to limit distractions, and to keep the judgments of others out. By engaging in the therapeutic process, we gain an understanding of our values and how they inform our behavior and emotional well-being.

Covid-19 has brought the world of mental health fragility to a new level never seen before.

My style as a therapist is a balance between insight/reflection and action focused interventions. I have been using this approach to help individuals and couples for over 20 years.

Psychoanalytic therapy—and psychoanalytically informed psychotherapy—offer a unique, exploratory process: a protected space where anything can be said and everything can be heard. Thoughts and feelings that may have long remained unspoken, even to yourself, can begin to take shape. I work with people facing anxiety, depression, creative impasses, relationship struggles, and unresolved past trauma. Through deep listening and the slow work of discovery, fixed patterns can begin to shift. Inhibitions loosen, new experiences become possible, and a fuller sense of aliveness can emerge.

I am silent when need be, yet I am also very willing to respond to your questions and to dialogue with you in a very direct way when necessary.
