After obtaining a Ph.D. in School Psychology, I completed a Post-Doctoral Internship in Clinical Psychology, working with adults. I subsequently entered private practice and worked with a very diverse client population. Issues I have treated include: depression, anxiety, PTSD/pain from accident and injury, ADHD, and relationship issues. After practicing for 15 years, I entered the business world and recently returned to clinical practice supplemented with years of business and life experience.

Do anxious thoughts dominate your mind? Does your default thinking gravitate towards the worst case scenario? Feel like you're always looking for the next bad thing to happen? Does it seem like you're trapped in the cycle of "what ifs?" If you are becoming increasingly overwhelmed with the stress and pressure of life, I'm here to tell you it's possible to move forward in life with hope and confidence. It's easy to feel out of control in such a fast paced world. You're trying to balance it all and it feels like too much. Carrying the load of being everything for everyone gets heavy. Are you ready to feel some relief?

I specialize in providing individually tailored, evidence-based psychotherapy with a focus on increasing self-understanding - the way one makes sense of their own history, thoughts, feelings, and behaviors - and the examination of how and why individuals often engage in distressing or ineffective behaviors. I assist patients in improving their awareness of these patterns, and in the process make changes to allow for a richer and more meaningful life. I am currently licensed as a psychologist in the states of New York and New Jersey.

Life can be very difficult. There are times that you may question your ability to make decisions in your life especially when life is overwhelming you. Society is busy around us and we feel that no one can give you the time to share your inner conflicts to help determine the path you want to take in your life. You may feel all alone in a world filled with people. There are ways to rebuild your life, change self defeating behaviors and gain new skills and tools to enhance your life and your relationships. Therapy is about change.

In my 25 years of practice, I have evolved a number of specializations:couples therapy; women's issues;dealing with anxiety and depression--including post-partum depression; and facing the challenges of pregnancy loss and infertility. I have had extensive post-graduate training in couples therapy and have developed a lively and effective way of helping couples in distress get "unstuck" and move into a more satisfying and respectful relationship with one another.

Life is very much like driving a car. We can't only focus on the destination, and we can't stare into the rearview mirror. Either of these actions would cause an accident, and most certainly distract us from our main goal - keeping our eyes on the road! In my practice, I take on the GPS role. The driver and the GPS are a team. This is where therapy is so helpful. The relationship between the client and the therapist is powerful one, involving trust and collaboration, whereby the client feels safe and supported. I use a trauma- informed approach and have over 20 years of experience in various therapeutic settings.

People seek therapy because they are in pain or conflict. As an empathic therapist I am very mindful of how careful listening is a critical aspect of therapy. Patients begin to experience relief when they feel they are working with someone they trust and who cares about their struggles. My work as a Psychologist for 25+ years has given me the experience and skills needed to identify the concerns and issues that keep many people stuck in patterns of behavior that hinder their higher functioning. Alleviating troublesome symptoms, and working toward a more positive self-image are key steps toward emotional well-being.

In my 30 years as a psychotherapist, my primary focus has always been on the therapeutic relationship. Our work together will help you to find inner strengths and resources. In a comfortable and supportive atmosphere, you will recognize new ways of thinking and being that will help you to achieve your life goals. There is a uniqueness to each individual's personality and life experiences that connects us to the unique sense of who we are and how we can learn to cope and grow during stressful times.

I have recently added Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) as services now available in my office. I am not a traditional talk therapist, rather I do experiential psychotherapy. I trained 6 years beyond my doctorate in somatic psychotherapy, so that I include the body's experience throughout the session. In addition, I'm a Kripalu-certified yoga teacher. Through movement, breath, and mindfulness, I help you know and experience your feeling- states in your body. This allows you to expand your awareness so that you have choices (rather than being run by the programming of mind!)

For many, counseling offers the possibility of making a lasting and positive change in your life. Physical, emotional and environmental wellness all factor into one's mental health. Many issues can contribute to challenges with mental health including situational stressors such as loss, relationship conflicts, employment struggles and life transitions. In addition to these stressors, some people struggle with issues from childhood or unhealthy patterns that sabotage their relationships. A good therapist should believe in their clients potential for change, growth, and healing. I offer a supportive and non-judgmental environment that works in partnership with my clients.

You, or perhaps someone close to you, may have been struggling with a problem for some time and now have made the decision to seek professional assistance. This step comes neither easily nor comfortably. Feelings of apprehension, reluctance, and ambivalence are normal. Contrary to any self-talk that seeking help is a "sign of weakness", it is just the opposite. Engaging in therapeutic change is a bold and courageous act. I welcome hearing from you and will gladly discuss any matter of concern confidentially.
