I am a licensed clinical psychologist that provides teletherapy sessions to adults in New York. My general approach is humanistic, kind, and collaborative. I offer tools and techniques to help clients overcome challenges, draw on personal strengths and enhance their ability to better navigate their lives. Therapy sessions are tailored to meet individual needs with a focus not just on managing and reducing mental health issues but also on increasing well-being. Sessions incorporate aspects of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), positive psychology, and mindfulness.

As a native New Yorker, I deeply understand how the fast-paced world can leave us often feeling empty, depleted, irritable, and disconnected. I also understand the incredible courage and vulnerability it takes to seek therapy. Whether you’re looking to gain insight, strengthen your relationships, or identify ways to achieve your life goals and improve life satisfaction – I am here to help! My approach to therapy is strength-based, trauma informed, and rooted in cultural humility. I also employ a variety of mindfulness and insight-oriented interventions to provide a nonjudgmental brave space for openness and exploration.

Feeling stuck, unfulfilled, and overwhelmed can be very debilitating, isolating and feel permanent. These challenges can come up in relationships (love, family) and in your profession. You may have tried just about everything you can think of to address your concerns but still don't know how to move forward and resolve things. I can help you find relief. I have a calm, gentle presence that is perceived by many to be nurturing and inviting.

For many it is not easy to find the courage to begin therapy. Everyone has stress in their lives and could benefit from focusing on themselves. It is important to realize you have the power to change the way you react and how the stress influences your thoughts and feelings. Counseling can help you figure out how to best handle and understand your situation.

My work in hospitals, clinics, schools and private practice as well as work with college students, artists, children, and adults makes my ability to assist your needs my priority.

Hello, I am a licensed clinical social worker with over 30 years of experience. I work with adults, adolescents, children, families, and couples. I prefer to use an eclectic approach tailored to the unique needs of each client. I have been trained in a variety of modalities, so I can be flexible and use what works best for each individual. I pride myself on providing a warm and compassionate setting where my clients can feel comfortable and welcome. I respect each individual's strengths, beliefs, and support systems, drawing from these to help the client achieve their goals.

First off, congratulations on taking the step on this journey. I'm super excited that you have chosen to be on this journey and look forward to this adventure together, if you choose me as your therapist. :) A little bit about me: I am a social worker with background in substance abuse and mental health. I really enjoy meeting with clients and working towards their "aha moments". Therapy is a safe space to grow and "let down your hair" so to speak. I never want our time to be a power struggle/dynamic but rather a place where you can speak your mind and not feel judged. Trust me, I can be pretty quirky too.

As a therapist, my special interests are working with clients struggling with Post-Partum, Eating, Family/Relationship, Depression, and Anxiety-related issues. Clients I work with are mentally and emotionally open and seeking to gain perspective, detect and work on their own maladaptive patterns/habits, and receive support. I have found strong alliances with clients who are insight-oriented, and who are seeking to turn their existential questions to practical solutions as they are analyzing themselves and their world. I believe each individual is greater than the sum of their parts- a disposition guiding my practice.

I have to agree that finding the precise therapist can be quite challenging! Hopefully I can make your search less hectic if given the opportunity. I provide an unbiased, trusting environment necessary to explore vulnerabilities which foster healing. I have success working with clients of various ages from diverse backgrounds. I have received advanced training in Eating Disorders and Substance Abuse, and I am also well-versed in cognitive, behavioral, mindfulness, and psychodynamic approaches. I combine techniques from different therapeutic modalities to help my clients reach their goals to success and overall self-fulfillment.
