Do you wish you could more easily relate to others and experience the closeness you crave? Do you want to go deeper in therapy in order to release old wounds to find freedom? We all experience trauma of some kind during our lives. Traumatic experiences leave scars on our bodies and our minds that can't speak through words. I will listen to and understand your unspeakable pain as a non-judgmental and supportive witness.

I believe in the inherent well being of all of my patients and clients.

My clients will be able to access deep healing on multiple levels as well as vital life coaching through this portal

Therapy works, and people can change. In my practice people stop acting like marionettes dangling on invisible ropes and feeling "out of control" or stuck in repetitive, unproductive destructive motions. Together, we rewrite your story and free you to choose new, productive, more authentic and organic behaviors. You will figure out what you really want and how to get it. You will also learn that you can't get a quick fix. It took you many years to "create" yourself the way you are, and you need to acknowledge and respect this creatively devised mechanism.

Please email me to schedule a consultation for daytime hours. I specialize in the treatment of trauma, anxiety, depression, and recovery from abusive situations. I provide a safe and supportive space to deepen self-awareness and foster self-compassion. If you are experiencing difficulty with traumatic memories, life transitions, emotional turmoil, relational conflict, or issues pertaining to gender/sexuality, I can help you towards growth and healing. We will explore your personal narrative within the context of time and place, family and culture, actions and reactions, to cultivate your emotional well-being.

I'm a psychotherapist and psychoanalyst specializing in anxiety, depression, and relationship issues. Before I became a therapist, I worked as a freelance writer, editor, and writing coach. The most fulfilling part of that work for me was helping writers overcome personal obstacles in order to accomplish their goals. Now, as a relational analyst, I have the privilege of helping many different kinds of people find themselves at some of the hardest times in their lives.

No matter what life stage you’re in, together, we will work through symptoms of anxiety and depression, explore and strengthen interpersonal relationships and attachment, and work on self-esteem. Many of my clients also seek therapy during difficult transitions or when it feels like something is just not working in life. My goal is to help clients gain insight and become more in touch with their thoughts and feelings while learning new ways to cope even with the uncomfortable ones. I create a safe space where you can gain deeper insight into barriers getting in the way of living a more satisfying life.

Our goal is to promote brain health through integrative approach that is tailored and personalized to your need and the specifics of your brain, physiology, history, and life circumstances. Many of our clients come to us because they understand that their issues is not a character flaw but the culmination of genetic and environmental variables that have led to the brain being hardwired a certain way. They also understand that the brain is very plastic and that it can be retrained! We work with Adults & Children with ADHD, Anxiety, Depression, OCD, Brain Injury, Stress, Developmental issues, or simply Peak Performance.

Feeling disconnected from oneself can become all too easy in an increasingly fast-paced and interconnected world. I aim to create a warm and non-judgmental space where you can pause from the hustle and bustle and reconnect with yourself and what is most important to you. Processing your thoughts, feelings, and experiences, both past and present, can lead to greater self-understanding and help you recover what it means to live your most authentic and joyful life. We all can heal and grow, and together we will work to overcome barriers and develop tools to help you to live the life you want.

I specialize in providing Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for adults who are experiencing anxiety, phobias, panic attacks, or depression.

I view therapy as a collaborative process, mainly focused on the here-and-now, where we work together to enable you to overcome the barriers between you and your goals.

I am licensed in NY, NJ, FL, NV and OR. I work with individual adults, who struggle with the fallout of traumatic experiences. I helps clients develop a present sense of safety and process through difficult memories from their trauma. My focus is on making real progress; work with me is gentle yet deep. Gentle; through my nonjudgmental and complete acceptance of the authentic human experience. Deep; where I get straight to the core of what brings clients to therapy. My practice is trauma-focused, rooted in a deep understanding of the effects of trauma and specializing in addressing and fighting the internalized shame of clients.

You’re exhausted from feeling anxious and overwhelmed with life. You want to feel deeply connected to yourself, others, and maybe God, but just feel distant and stuck. You desire to feel confident, safe, and loved, instead of feeling guilty and never good enough. You are ready for relief and to embrace life as a whole hearted, confident adult. I'm glad you're here. Therapy with me is a place where you can feel safe, understood, and known. Together we’ll uncover patterns keeping you stuck and how they connect to your past experiences, working to build healthier rhythms of functioning.

Life can feel joyful and meaningful, but also quite challenging. We all experience difficulties and if you are feeling stuck, overwhelmed, distressed, or physically and emotionally unwell, your mind and body are trying to tell you that something is wrong. It can be intimidating and frightening to approach change, but you do not need to navigate it alone. I will create a warm, safe space, free of judgment, in which to empathically help you manage stressful life events/transitions, relationship issues, and painful losses. I also focus on addressing issues of anxiety, depression and trauma, toward enhancing joy and life satisfaction.

You're in the right place if you've experienced trauma earlier in your life AND you're now going through a big change. After trying regular talk therapy and doing it yourself, you still feel stuck in the same old patterns. Your body has reactions that you can't seem to control. You can't stop thinking about the past. Regular talk therapy and/or doing it on your own (DIY) may have made you feel more hopeless, helpless, stuck and lonely. It’s not your fault, though. The traditional methods are not designed to help you fully heal.

Are you experiencing low mood, no joy and lack of motivation, anxious thoughts, or uncontrollable worries? Are your emotions feeling distressing or overwhelming? Is your transition into motherhood not what you expected? Are you seeking support through a divorce or a separation? Do you need help navigating a significant loss, or perhaps you are seeking healing from a trauma? Or maybe you are just feeling “not quite right” and would like help figuring out what is going on and how to move into a better place? If your answer was yes to any of the above, therapy can help you.

Do you have a difficult time expressing yourself and the fullness of your being with words alone? Sometimes words are not enough, especially when emotions and narratives get locked in the body. Are you ready to feel more grounded, balanced, whole, present, and unrestricted? Are there stories to unearth within that you would like a deeper understanding of? As a dance therapist, I work with those who are seeking another way to express themselves.Whether it is through movement exploration or talking, I provide a space to work through life's challenges, offering you the opportunity to enhance your self-esteem, self-worth, and intuition.

For all the reasons people come to seek help, learning to inhabit one's body more fully, with mindful awareness of the sensations and messages they are attempting to show us, greatly enhances the effectiveness in achieving one's goals. We work to live as fully and genuinely in the present as possible, while effectively communicating our thoughts, feelings and sensations based on knowledge of oneself and other. Our cellular memory brings to light the issues we are challenged with and greatly enhances our ability to sense and make choices about the long-held habit patterns that hurt ourselves and others.
