As a psychologist, I help people address their struggles and reach their potential. I pay careful attention to the establishment of a safe, trusting environment where people feel heard, seen, and supported. I have come to recognize the issues that come along with our attempts to cope with challenges that life presents. We often use strategies that might have been useful in the past and are less helpful now. These patterns, often operating outside our immediate awareness, present as portals for us to access the enormous field of potential for lasting change which we aim to access collaboratively.

Imagine walking around this planet with a deep understanding that you are OK - truly perfect just as you are. I don't mean that we don't all have faults and make mistakes, because we do. But that doesn't make us mistakes. Or maybe you're needing help to galvanize your courage to make a change, to dare to live your very best life? A warm and supportive relationship with the right therapist will help to re-engage and energize your own existing internal resources, the parts of you that are already confident, calm, creative, courageous and compassionate. We can do this work together.

I am very fortunate to combine my three loves: people, psychology and dogs. Over the years my dogs have accompanied me to my office and have been of great therapeutic value and pleasure in their interaction with patients of all ages. Therapy is an exciting adventure in which therapist and patient agree to explore the patient's life, dreams, problems, fears, hopes and aspirations. As therapist it is my responsibility to guide: sometimes lead, share and always to jointly explore who the individual is. While everyones' therapy is different, therapy is the opportunity to pull ones' life together and develop the courage to change.

I am a licensed therapist based in NYC, working with individuals and couples across the lifespan. Many people recognize positive aspects of themselves, but struggle to feel connected in relationships or at peace in their daily lives.

I am focused on ensuring that my clients see real progress: my style is interactive, non-judgmental, and positions clients as the experts on where they are now, and where they are going.

Feeling lost, confused, or misunderstood in a world that never stops changing? It’s not always easy to open up, especially when fear of judgment holds you back. But therapy can be a powerful first step toward reclaiming your autonomy. Often, we rely on familiar habits to get our needs met—habits that aren’t always healthy. Together, we can work to explore the different parts of your identity and begin to gently replace unhelpful coping strategies with ones that truly support your well-being.
