Every one of us is losing something precious to us. Lost opportunities, lost possibilities, feelings we can never get back again. That's part of what it means to be alive. (Murakami). Losses are part of the fabric of life - of loved ones, jobs, hopes and dreams, relationships, good health, a sense of safety. Loss comes in many forms, ambiguous and concrete. If you’ve lost your sense of self, I can help you return to yourself. I provide a holding space for you and help you integrate your losses into your life so you can move forward with strength and optimism, and eventually find meaning, growth and a renewed sense of purpose.

Hi! I am an NYC-based therapist providing warm, inviting, and effective therapy for adults and adolescents.

Taking steps toward change takes bravery, and I commend you for taking the first step.

My Approach to therapy is non-judgmental, collaborative and individualized, in that each person is unique and has their own strengths and challenges. My Expertise is being authentic and relatable in forming trusting relationships with individuals who are feeling overwhelmed, scared, anxious, depressed, grief, loss, sad, hurt, neglected, abused, deceived, dismissed as the result of life events. Small talk makes me nervous, so I actively work to make sure everything I do and say comes from a place of authenticity. I hope to be part of your journey and share this with you.

It's okay if you need healing and a way forward and have no idea of where to start. Maybe you’ve tried individual or couples therapy but it’s been more harmful than helpful because your therapist didn’t understand emotional abuse and toxic relationship dynamics. Applying tools intended for two healthy people doesn’t work when there’s a Narcissist and/or abuse present in the relationship. Working with someone who understands patterns of abuse can help you make the right decision for yourself. I am trained in Narcissistic Abuse and High Conflict Divorce Coaching. - I also work with Millennial Women on life transitions (website below)

My approach is warm, empathic, and creative, and I utilize a collaborative therapeutic process informed by Psychodynamic, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Gestalt, and Masterson's psychotherapy theories. There are many reasons to come to therapy, and usually a person begins because something is bothering them, and they may be feeling "stuck". In therapy, you can work towards feeling better, improving the areas you are struggling in, and addressing the life obstacles that you may be facing. I believe each person brings their unique strengths to the process as well as issues they would like to resolve.

Are you experiencing new emotional distress - like the discovery of a mood disorder, career transition or relationships stressors? Are you interested in learning about your response to these changes and developing tools to help you cope? My goal is to provide a collaborative atmosphere in which people can openly explore their feelings, better understand their personalities, and reach new resolutions. Using a combination of psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioral and strengths-based approaches, I can help you identify solutions that will help you lead a more meaningful and fulfilling life.

I treat a wide spectrum of conditions including mood and anxiety disorders (e.g., bipolar and depressive disorders, panic and phobias), ADHD, marital issues and PTSD. My niche is in personality disorders (e.g., borderline and narcissistic personality disorder). I have extensive experience treating trauma sequelas, dissociative disorders and helping individuals overcome grief. My practice also includes treatment of eating disorders in adults (e.g., bulimia) and parasuicidal behaviour. Although my practice is mainly guided by empirical modalities, I tend to approach each client in an eclectic manner to customize treatment as needed.

I'm a results-oriented, solution-focused psychologist who, over 25 years in practice, have honed my own active, directive therapeutic approach to deliver results in a time-efficient, step-wise manner. After an initial chronological overview, in which we track the origins and development of your presenting symptoms/challenges, we establish clear, achievable goals and map out steps for reaching these goals. Utilizing goal-focused, cognitive-behavioral techniques, I’ll guide and assist you in identifying and overcoming past hindrances to meeting your desired goals, and provide you with skills for maintaining your achieved goals.

Whether you are deciding begin therapy or looking to continue, I consider this decision to be a tremendous act of courage. To be in therapy is to admit to yourself and another person that you are tired of your current situation, and you want change.
