I am a clinical psychologist, licensed in New York and New Jersey with over 20 years of counselling experience. I specialise in working with couples and individuals struggling with communication as well as emotional and physical intimacy. Another area in which I am particularly interested is the complex relationship between emotions and food. In my work, I collaborate with a licensed nutritionist who is is well versed in cutting edge approaches to weight loss.
In psychotherapy, we work on recognizing patterns of behavior, thinking and emotions, discovering how these patterns led to undesirable outcomes in life. My main focus is on helping people accept the emotions and thoughts which cannot be controlled and connecting with what is truly important.
My therapy sessions and office are a safe space for everyone - LGBTQ friendly. I am bilingual ( English and Hebrew ) and can conduct therapy sessions in either language. I offer both in- person and telehealth sessions to residents of New York and New Jersey.

Groups
Men in challenging relationships
In this group, we will address in a safe, non-judgemental and highly supportive environment the diverse range of experiences of men in relationships that are either turbulent and high in conflict or else semi-dead where there is little to no intimacy. One of the major goals of this group is to break the barrier of silence and shame that prevents men from getting the support that they need as they struggle to navigate challenging relationships on their own. Respect for different needs, preferences and perspectives will be a guiding principle of the group. Group sessions last ninety minutes.
