Reading through these profiles can feel daunting. You need an able, expert guide worthy of your own commitment to improve your life. Good therapy gives causative insight, but GREAT therapy supports YOUR vision of creating a "life worth living" by actively supporting the change needed to realize goals. My work experience includes career and relationships, trauma and mood disorders related to pregnancy, childbirth, health issues, grief and loss (including child and fetal loss). I also work with the human animal bond and support the grief associated with loss of companion animals.
Using evidenced based approaches (psychodynamic, CBT, DBT and EMDR) I have helped hundreds of women throughout the tri-state area transform their lives through self-empowerment and acquisition of new skills and perspectives. From late adolescence through the senior years, my practice focuses on issues unique to women.
As an award winning therapist, author of respected publications, Adjunct Professor at the Silver School of Social Work at NYU, former president of Postpartum Support International and current public reviewer for the National Institute of Mental Health, I have the expertise to effectively guide you through life's most profound and delicate challenges.
