Kudos to you! It takes such strength to acknowledge and respond to your needs and therapy is an incredibly effective way of gaining insight to promote self growth and achieve happiness. Our behaviors and day to day interactions with the world and the people in it, as well as how we feel about it, are based on a series of different parts; our thoughts, our experiences and our life events. My aim is to help you navigate difficult events, repair unhealthy interactions and get to the root of the issue; reframing unproductive thoughts and negative experiences so it is no longer hindering and you can become a better you.

Using the science-based technique (CBT) cognitive behavior therapy, I will help you explore thoughts about people, places, and things in your life. We can either learn to be happier in the lives we have, or gain the strength and motivation to change it into the life we want. Therapy is best when it is a conversation between two genuine people. I like the analogy of the therapist as a seasoned woodsman, who meets you, lost in your personal forest. As you walk and talk, the woodsman subtly uses known cues about how to get out of the woods.

I approach therapy as a form of collaboration that can spark change. Whether you are looking to discover the best version of yourself or overcome a challenging experience, we can tailor our time to best meet your needs. Painful thoughts, feelings, and behavior patterns can interfere with being able to experience contentment in life. These difficulties can prevent us from attaining our personal or professional goals and often start to damage our relationships with the ones we love. By understanding and becoming aware of your underlying beliefs and emotions, we can explore how to best move towards acceptance and change in your life.

Understanding yourself can sometimes be the most difficult thing to struggle with. It's as though we have a blindspot when it comes to self. It can be helpful to seek out a more objective view. I can offer support, validation, and insight in a relaxed, non-threatening atmosphere.

My passion and interest is in people, their stories, their struggles and their triumphs. This has led me to my mission to help people create the life they have always wanted. I passionately believe that the key of being a good therapist/counselor/coach/mentor is not to help people be something they’re not... but it’s to help people become more of who they really are!

I help people because I make it possible for them to bring their issues and concerns into the therapy session in order to resolve these problems in the treatment. Whatever we accomplish in this task carries over to the client's outside life and they become more successful. I am able to do this because of my many years of supervision with some of the top therapists in the New York area. I also train other therapists and I was cited as a supervisor of excellence by the California Psychological Association.
