As a psychologist with over a decade of experience practicing in New York, Miami, and CT I focus on helping adults and teens to thrive following difficult life experiences. Often times, our current or past difficulties get in the way of being our best selves. My clients come to understand what behaviors and relationships are hindering them, and develop the essential skills and self-awareness needed to lead lives with more joy. I’m known for my collaborative and emotion-focused approach to help my clients.

It can be so difficult to enjoy a “normal” life when your mind is preoccupied with diet, weight, or the size and shape of your body. It’s hard to concentrate at work or school when you can’t stop fixating on your muffin top, and how many calories or “points” you have left for the day. You feel anxious when it comes to being around other people because you fear they’re judging you. You have no idea how you got into this vicious cycle, or how to get out. If this sounds like you, I can help you find your way to making peace with food and your body!

If you are seeking out therapy, chances are that there is something in your life that is no longer working for you. Whether it’s your relationships, work-life balance, or just the general way that you’ve been feeling about yourself, there’s no need to stay stuck. My role is to help you better understand yourself, your history, and patterns of thoughts, feelings and behaviors that may be unconsciously playing out in your life. Because every person is unique, my goal as your therapist is for us to understand you as a whole person and learn what you are really searching for both from therapy and in your life.

I specialize in trauma, from mild traumas to PTSD and CPTSD, narcissistic abuse, and religious trauma. I emphasize the mind-body connection and rely on somatic therapies and evidence-based therapies like EMDR, in which I am fully certified with advanced training. Additionally, I specialize in relationship stress and anxiety for individuals and/or couples. For couples/marriage counseling I use attachment theory to guide my work. Beyond these specializations, I help individuals experiencing depression, anxiety, self-esteem issues, stress, and life transitions, aiming to provide holistic and compassionate care for healing and growth.

Why does it feel like you’re living for everyone but yourself? Your family relies on you for everything from dinner plans to school projects. You take on extra assignments at work even when your plate is overflowing. Friends ask you for favors, and you can’t say no. You wish there was a way to create time for yourself, but you hate the idea of letting anyone down. So you keep pushing through. And no matter how hard you work, there’s still a voice in your head telling you it’s not enough. Fun is nonexistent, and you can’t remember the last time you did anything for yourself. You can’t go on like this, but change feels hopeless.

The evolving challenges of raising children involve the addition of new technology and an ever-increasing pressure to succeed. Keeping on top of these dynamics can at best overwhelm and at worst alienate those in even the most healthy families. Teens pass through a stage of fluctuating hormonal levels, while negotiating burgeoning independence, and navigating the waters of social media along with peer pressure. Meanwhile parents are dealing with keeping a household afloat, managing the family and their careers, while often having aging parents and/or dealing with grief over their loss. When teens and parents need a little help or mental health challenges require more effort for daily living than they should, learning new coping skills with or without medication can make a difference. Discovering what influences behaviors and learning ways to express what needs to be said can empower parents and their children to find more happiness and fulfillment in life. Sorting through these challenges and developing coping techniques that help organize and balance communication is my goal with all families and individuals.

With a legitimate desire to experience your emotions, reveal your thoughts, and admit the consequences of your actions, you have all you need to achieve your therapeutic goals of change and healing.

OCD is a heavy burden. And it feels even heavier when nothing seems to help, including therapy. Maybe you feel that OCD is just something you have to tolerate for the rest of your life.
