I am a psychologist providing therapy and assessment services for children through adults. I have extensive clinical experience and am an expert Cognitive Behavioral Therapist.

I strive to regularly advance my knowledge and provide leading scientific treatments. I specialize in the treatment of anxiety, depression, panic, OCD, trauma, stress, insomnia, ADHD, defiance, and work/school issues. Many of my clients lead busy lives; therefore, I offer evening appointments.

I have been in practice for over 40 years and I feel that my best client is the person who recognizes that they could use someone like myself to help them alter their thoughts and behaviors that are impeding their progress. I have worked well with issues related to mood such as anxiety and depression, but also with stress related disorders. If you believe that life would be better if you only knew how to change your thinking,feeling and behavior, then I am your therapist.

Welcome. I'm a licensed clinical social worker with over 30 years of experience.

Whether you're facing life transitions, loss, or challenges in your family or work life, therapy can help you achieve your capacity for growth, change, and self-awareness. We will identify any patterns that may have you feeling "stuck," to help you move forward effectively. I have worked for 24 years at NY Presbyterian Hospital, and have training in CBT, DBT, as well as supportive and psychodynamic treatment.

Never thought you'd find yourself looking for a therapist, or had a disappointing therapy experience before? Much of the success of treatment depends on finding someone whom you can trust, who is as invested in seeing you make progress as you are. I have a solid track record working with children, adolescents, adults and families to create change in their lives...even when situations feel hopeless.

Psychotherapy is an endeavor that many people seek to improve the overall quality of their lives. Whether one is experiencing conflict within relationships, difficulties coping with stress, a specific life problem, or acute symptoms, the insights, skills and increased awareness that come from psychotherapy can be invaluable. I work with patients to help create and maintain satisfying relationships, decrease emotional distress, develop healthy and effective coping strategies, cultivate self esteem and healthy self image, and increase satisfaction with life.

I provide a relaxed and non-judgmental environment in which to focus on understanding the issues you are having and to map out an effective path to change. My approach is based on specialized training in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and related evidence-based treatments for depression, anxiety and other psychological issues experienced by adults and adolescents. I also have expertise as a clinical health psychologist and have worked in outpatient and hospital settings with families, patients and healthcare teams to improve coping with and management of chronic illnesses like diabetes, heart disease, cancer, and HIV/AIDS.

I view psychotherapy as a framework for clarifying and working through problems that cause people to feel stuck, helpless or insecure about their lives. Ultimately, I consider the goal of psychotherapy as empowering others to reach aspired levels of purpose, productivity and fulfillment. I work to help others gain a fuller understanding of themselves and the reasons behind recurring habits, upsetting moods and anxieties, relational conflicts and obstacles that seem unsolvable. My clients explore alternative perspectives to their problems, make more informed choices around them, and gain a greater sense of control over their surroundings and the stressors they encounter.

Over the course of the 30+ years I've been involved in the practice of clinical psychology, the breadth and scope of practice has grown enormously. From pediatrics to geriatrics, from individuals to couples and families, the science has expanded and so has my practice. Behavior Modification, behavior therapy, CBT, ACT, and now, CBIT, all play a continuing role in different aspects of clinical practice. The capacity to select and as often is the case, adapt an appropriate modality, requires understanding that only time and experience can provide.

I see our lives as a tapestry made up of threads representing various challenges, opportunities, failures, triumphs, and experiences that can sometimes seem random or chaotic. It is in these moments of personal turmoil that we often have the greatest potential for emotional growth through self-reflection and self-awareness. Together, through a trusting and non-judgmental relationship, we will explore your strengths and challenges to help you overcome the turmoil and eventually helping you reach your full potential and a more satisfying life. Expect an informal and safe environment to explore, grow, learn, and succeed!
