About
Warm, down-to-earth, capable psychotherapist uses an integrative approach: cognitive therapy, psychodynamic and psychoanalytic means, dreams, symbols, narrative , mindfulness and other approaches -- to identify core conflicts and bring you to a more fulfilling life.
I graduated Hunter School of Social Work; completed a fellowship at NYU Psychoanalytic Institute, a one year program in modern psychoanalysis,and have continued training in couples counseling, poetry therapy,dream interpretation.and Jungian therapy. I take a whole person approach
My practice includes but is not limited to marginalized people with early loss or rejection by a caretaker. I have worked successfully with older people, minorities, non-English-speaking individuals and couples.
My foreign language facility sets me apart and my ready insight into the heart of the matter. I am very resourceful and able to use a multiplicity of approaches in the service of my patients
