Psychotherapy is a confidential interpersonal relationship formed between a mental health professional and a patient. In this setting issues are addressed related to a person's level of functioning internally (way of thinking) and externally (how they react to the environment). In treatment, patients are able to talk with someone privately who is unbiased and that provides an objective point of view to their pending circumstance and assists them with problem resolution. Psychotherapy supports people with getting in touch with and their inner most feelings and learning how to communicate it more effectively, so that they improve relationships with others in their life (family/work/friends/school). This form of treatment can be performed one on one, with groups, couples and/or families. Individual psychotherapy is provided to adolescents and adults. Additionally, couples counseling and family therapy is also available. The primary mode of treatment is through behavioral and cognitive therapy models. Psychiatric referrals are available upon request.

Welcome! I am a licensed clinical social worker who has worked in a variety of settings with children, adolescents and adults with an array of needs. This has provided me the opportunity to hone my craft gaining experience with individuals from all walks of life. Regardless of setting, each individual is unique. I strive to create a safe space for my clients to feel free to be themselves. Asking for help can sometimes feel overwhelming. My approach is warm and non-judgmental. My down-to-earth nature is often what clients are drawn to. I would love the opportunity to assist you on your journey of growth and healing.

My goal is to be with you every step of the way as you explore your concerns alongside me. To explore the depths of your thoughts and feelings and understand them. We would work together on the goals that you have! Therapy motivates you to reach your highest potential and improves the quality of your life.

Do you feel you are riding an emotional rollercoaster? Alternatively, do you feel like you are living in auto-pilot, going through the motions in life without finding much satisfaction? Or maybe you are experiencing anxiety, depression, difficulty coping with past traumas, relationship or work difficulties, or are just feeling stuck. Although we may find ourselves surrounded by supportive family and friends, we may still feel alone and isolated in our distress. Pain in life may be unavoidable, but you don’t need to go through it alone.

"You're braver than you believe, and stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think." (A.A. Milne). Helping a client become or feel more empowered is a key approach I take in my practice. I focus on helping my clients reflect on personal issues in order to better understand them and make the positive changes they desire to make.

Are you tired of feeling frustrated or ineffective in achieving your goals? Are your relationships causing you more pain than pleasure? You do not have to live this way. Consulting with a therapist about upsetting or confusing issues can be very helpful. Please contact me; I would like to help you. Working as a psychotherapist using multiple approaches with individuals, families, and couples, I treat depression, anxiety, addictions, parenting, marital, bereavement, divorce and career issues. With support and compassion, clients are helped to examine their beliefs, feelings and personal relationships and create desired goals.

Are you feeling anxious, sad or overwhelmed? Do you need support in overcoming a significant obstacle in your personal or professional life or in making a major life decision? By providing a safe, caring and understanding therapeutic relationship, I will assist you in this journey. We will openly explore your difficulties, discuss techniques for coping with feelings, reach new resolutions, achieve solutions, establish and reach goals and improve your life and relationships with others. We'll work on developing positive coping skills for unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, so that you can live a joyful, healthy and peaceful life.

Let's be honest, things have been stressful lately! And even though you know everyone is going through it, it doesn't bring you much comfort and you may even feel like you are alone with this. You may have already had a lot going on before things changed and now you have that and this compounded together. The weight of it all can get pretty heavy at times and you are trying to be the best you can with everyone around you. You put on your best straight-face and a smile but worry that you're one moment away from losing it. Imagine how great it will feel to let all that go and feel more in control and confident!

Smiling is hard when there’s only pain inside. High anxiety, racing thoughts and loneliness overshadow every hint of joy in your life. As your energy plummets, small tasks become huge. Just talking seems like a chore. Irritability and exhaustion are a constant battle. Loved ones complain that you are removed and shutdown. You want to let them in, but it’s hard to trust anyone. It’s become impossible to turn off that negative voice in your head that keeps saying you aren’t good enough. No one understands. Everything triggers you. The past is tied up with the present, your thoughts are dark, and you’re afraid of losing everything

The journey from adolescence to young adulthood can be stressful and overwhelming for both individuals and their families. Between social pressures, academic expectations, and familial relationships, some people can get trapped in a cycle of negative emotions. I work with teenagers, young adults and their families who are struggling through this exciting time full of changes. I have helped individuals and families build strength and resilience in a number of settings, including schools, mental health clinics and as a pediatric social worker in NYC hospital systems.

At every stage, life has its challenges. Allowing the voice of worry to be in the driver’s seat is not working for you. There is a way to navigate life better, and feel empowered no matter what is on your plate. I know, easier said than done. It’s just a matter of creating a new path. I can help you find it!
