I work with adults, couples, adolescents and families, on a broad range of topics including relationship difficulties, stress management, depression, anxiety, childhood challenges, school related issues,anger management, marital and pre-martial issues, co-parenting, divorce, domestic violence, and bereavement.
Sometimes we become overwhelmed with life's many challenges and can't seem to get things right. Stress can overtake our lives and leave us feeling bog down, thus feeling stagnant or repeating the same negative patterns. Together I can help you achieve a personal sense of well being through counseling. My therapeutic approach is an interactive goal oriented approach using cognitive behavior therapy. Our thoughts, emotions and behaviors essentially create our lives! They can create within us tremendous sadness or overwhelming joy.
At every stage of life, we are faced with new and challenging transitions. Gain inspiration and support as you share your own specific changes with an intimate group of your peers. In this nonjudgmental supportive group, discover the wisdom, rewards and experience that aging holds for all of us who are 60+. Topics include aging, transition, love and loss, relationships with adult children, joy, and behavioral techniques. Group will meet virtually.

After working extensively in the field of HIV and AIDS and then as a Program Director for the FDNY, providing counseling and therapeutic services to firefighters post-9/11, I have developed a speciality in grief and trauma.
Finding a therapist can be a daunting process. I believe it is important to feel at ease in order to do the work therapy entails. I provide a comfortable, down-to-earth environment that will allow you to develop insight, find more choices in your life, and to build self confidence. I have advanced training in psychoanalysis and psychodynamic psychotherapy, however unlike classical analysis I do not act as a blank screen and have a contemporary approach. I provide feedback and believe in mutual collaboration between patient and therapist.

This community offers support for young adults dealing with the illness of someone close to them. Such circumstances may bring up complicated feelings such as experience of ambiguous loss, anticipated grief, and navigating multiple roles (including continuing to live your own). This group offers support and connection around what can often feel like a very isolated experience. Self-care is essential to mental health as well as maintaining the ability to take care of those who are close to you.
Other areas include depression, anxiety, trauma, transitions, grief, and relationship difficulties.
Everyday I am humbled by working with those who have the courage to look in the mirror and work on themselves. I view psychotherapy as an opportunity for growth no matter where you are in your life; whether seeking support in a time of crisis, suffering from a mental illness, working on relationships, or you are simply curious about who you are and how your mind works. My treatment approach is rooted in psychodynamic and relational frameworks although I tailor my technique to each client. I value change beyond symptom resolution but also to increase self awareness and individual growth.
Zoom Workshop: Coping With Loss & Grief During The Holidays Plan Ahead to Manage Difficult Times The workshop is free, The workshop will explore skills and strategies for planning ahead, "Do's & Don't's", how to ask for and receive support, creation of new rituals and memories, and the importance of self compassion especially for individuals grieving the death of a loved one during the Pandemic.

This 6-week group is specifically for women who lost their mother prior to age 30. When a woman loses her mother at a young age, it is like losing a life compass. Women typically have complicated relationships with their mothers, yet depend on them for guidance and support for many years. It's an unusual phenomenon since most women live well into mid-life years with their moms. This group will offer support and guidance to those who manage their way through life without a mother's presence. Fee: $60 per group- sliding scale available.

This psychotherapy group is for older adults who welcome the chance for personal growth in later life. The purpose of the group is to know yourself and others. It is for men and women who have lively minds and are inspired when they encounter people still curious about what life has to offer. Members use the group in various ways, but whatever their motivation, they are interested in self-exploration and interaction with others as a way to increase self-knowledge, improve their relationships with others and shape their lives in meaningful and rewarding ways.
