Therapists in New York, NY

I work with you to discover what a meaningful life looks like and make changes that lead to deeper fulfillment. Deep, attentive listening creates a safe space for you to explore your unfiltered thoughts and feelings without judgment. Together, we will create greater awareness and understanding of negative patterns that keep you stuck and experiment with different ways of responding to life’s many challenges and complexities. I am passionate about working with people struggling with low self-esteem and high self-criticism, stressful life transitions, and difficulty in relationships.

My goal is to listen and help you tackle difficult issues, inform and support you so you can feel empowered, every day. Empathy, constructive listening and feedback are combined with theory to provide established clinical support. Concerns such as anxiety or depression, relationship barriers and sexual concerns, career and money difficulties are all welcome. I want to help you find success and feel good about yourself and all that you invest in.

Deciding to begin psychotherapy is one of the kindest and most important choices you can make for yourself. It can be a turning point in your life, but it can also feel scary to talk to someone you don't know well.

Earning graduate degrees from Columbia and Yale Universities, I am a clinical psychologist, licensed in both the states of New York and Massachusetts, who is trained in psychoanalytic,dialectical behavioral (DBT) and humanistic treatment modalities. With offices in the West Village of Manhattan, I work with adults, children and adolescents with a variety of difficulties, including problems related to anxiety; mood, such as depression and poor self-esteem; interpersonal conflicts; career transitions; issues of professional identity; feelings of ineffectiveness and failures of performance in work and school; marital conflicts; and, difficulties with intimacy in romantic relationships.

I aspire to create a space that is welcoming, safe, non-judgmental, empathic and introspective.

In therapy, issues to be resolved will be addressed with the idea that self-awareness leads to choice, responsibility and change.
