You do not need to be fixed. Your feelings are valid. It will get better. You will not always feel this way. And if you don’t believe this, I am here to support you through your darkest, most difficult times. As a licensed psychologist, I can be the listening ear and objective, kind voice. To help you process trauma, depression, and anxiety. Explain and discover why you emotionally eat or spend money, restrict food or control things in your life.

Hello wonderful souls! Are you struggling with relationship issues, anxiety and overwhelm, or just feel stuck even though you don't understand why? I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with nearly a decade of experience helping people navigate dysfunctional relationship/family dynamics, transitions, anxiety/stress, and trauma. My practice focuses on creating a safe space to process challenges and empower you to learn and use skills to manage whatever life is throwing your way! My clients typically experience relief and empowerment within the therapeutic setting as they learn practical tools to increase self awareness, regulate emotions, decrease overwhelm, and manage everyday stressors. Clients are often surprised by how much change they see within a few sessions through the application of cognitive techniques and tools designed to give you back your power.

As a clinical psychologist, I assist clients to address issues that are difficult to confront alone. I encourage self-reflection, help clients gain a clearer understanding of their life experiences and bring awareness to patterns of relating that are interfering with living a satisfying life. My orientation is primarily psychodynamic; it promotes self-exploration and gaining insight, along with productive behavior change. I take an active and engaged role with my clients by asking questions and offering ideas. I approach therapy as a collaborative process with the intention of reducing suffering, increasing self-understanding, and cultivating deeper and more compassionate relationships. I specialize in addressing chronic trauma, depression, anxiety, life transitions, loss, and relationship difficulties.

White Plains, NY

Never thought you'd find yourself looking for a therapist, or had a disappointing therapy experience before? Much of the success of treatment depends on finding someone whom you can trust, who is as invested in seeing you make progress as you are. I have a solid track record working with children, adolescents, adults and families to create change in their lives...even when situations feel hopeless. I use an integrative approach that draws from relational, psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioral, and systems modalities. I am a trained drama therapist and play therapist, and use these skills when they help to support the treatment process. I offer individual, group, and family therapy. I am adjunct faculty at NYU and Lesley University, former supervisor at a residential treatment center, and the author of numerous articles and four books on trauma, child/adolescent treatment, and working with boys. Call me to set up a consultation or visit my website to find out more.

Hello! I help clients seeking to become “unstuck,” to meet new challenges, and to navigate relationships and emotions. I help individuals with anxiety, relationships, stress management, self-esteem, and decision making. I primarily use techniques based in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and I incorporate mindfulness practices if they appeal to the client. I am non-judgmental, warm, and active. I will strive to develop a nuanced understanding and appreciation of your values, needs, and struggles. We will clarify obstacles, evaluate coping strategies, identify personally meaningful goals, and develop skills necessary for a path forward. I have extensive experience with young adults, including those who are in undergraduate, graduate, and early career stages. I understand the unique challenges that this life stage presents and support clients as they navigate their identity, education, careers, and relationships. I also support young adults with time management, organizational skills, goal-setting, and planning. Please reach out for a consultation and to learn about working together.
