As you’re choosing a therapist from hundreds of providers, here is what you can expect from me. I offer in-person sessions (& telehealth) for clients who prefer face-to-face connection. I do not use Artificial Intelligence for notetaking due to concerns about data security. I do not require you to put a credit card on file to start treatment with me, which aligns with a new law in New York designed to protect health consumers. I take many insurance plans to support mental health parity - because we deserve to use our benefits to pay for therapy - and I offer pro bono services for those with complex financial barriers to care.

"I have commanded foreign words to explicate the native in me, all the while obfuscating what was, but was not, could not be, spoken. And what of words? I have spoken in multitudes and platitudes. I have harbored thoughts and feelings with no hope of setting them off to sail in these words. All words but my own. There are, and always will be, two ways to tell my stories. I shall strive to choose dis-cordingly. There once was word where my innards stood. First there was word. After word there was silence. ..."

Undergoing deep-seated change is challenging and often uncomfortable, but a willingness to engage in this process can bring about a revitalization in our relationship to ourselves, others, and the wider world. My outlook on treatment supports the development of greater self-expression and creativity. I emphasize the role of the unconscious mind and the importance of self-reflection.

I am most helpful to those that want to learn practical skills to help reduce mental health symptoms such as depression, anxiety, and stress, or who find themselves "stuck" and wanting to find more meaning in their lives. While having a safe space to discuss day to day problems and vent is extremely important, many people need a bit more guidance in learning new ways to relate to their thoughts and feelings in order to reach their goals. I aim to provide this guidance in a flexible and collaborative manner, monitoring progress and incorporating feedback throughout treatment.

Are you struggling with depression, anxiety, or going through difficult life transitions? Or maybe you notice things others don’t—like hearing sounds no one else seems to hear, or holding strong beliefs that friends or family keep telling you aren’t real. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or just not like yourself lately, therapy can be a space to slow down, reflect, and figure things out at your own pace. Sometimes life throws more at us than we were prepared for—losses, changes, or just the weight of day-to-day stress—and it’s okay to ask for support when that happens.

Psychosis Therapists
What’s the most effective treatment for psychosis?
The most effective treatment for psychosis is coordinated specialty care. In this model, a team of professionals works with a patient to address all aspects of the underlying disorder. This approach incorporates individual or group therapy, employment and education support, family support and education, medication management (which often involves low doses of antipsychotics), and case management to facilitate problem-solving as needed.
When should people seek treatment for psychosis?
People should seek immediate treatment at the earliest indication of psychosis. Symptoms include delusions, hallucinations, disorganized or blocked speech, and agitated body movements. Early signs that a person may be developing a disorder that will lead to psychosis include suspiciousness of others, memory problems and distractibility, an inability to think clearly, rapid or nonsensical speech, withdrawal from friends or family, aggression toward others, and sensitivity to bright lights or noises.
What if psychosis is left untreated?
Without treatment, psychosis can have significant repercussions, including injuries, job loss, homelessness, financial or legal trouble, ruptured relationships, and suffering for the person and their family. While early treatment for psychosis often yields the best results, there is no point past which it becomes useless to seek treatment. At any point, treatment can make a difference.
How do I get someone else to seek treatment for psychosis?
It’s extremely difficult to watch a loved one suffer from hallucinations, delusions, and other elements of psychosis—sometimes exacerbated by their fears of treatment. Have a conversation with them in a quiet space and maintain a calm, supportive tone. Share your concerns about behaviors you’ve observed, suggest treatment, and explain the potential benefits. Listen carefully to their responses. The person may not be ready after one conversation, but with time, they may come around.
