I am a clinical psychologist licensed in New York and New Jersey. I specialize in Child and Adolescent Psychology and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and in working with individuals experiencing anxiety, stress, and related difficulties. I believe strongly that there should be no mysteries in therapy. Goals are best served if they are clearly established. Children, adolescents and their families deserve to be part of creating those goals and should know when they are being achieved. Therapy should be practical and based on the available relevant research evidence.

When people trust they will not be judged, it provides a freedom to approach the thoughts and feelings that are likely limiting their relationships, work/school perfor mance, and general happiness with life.
Searching for a therapist is difficult. Sifting through websites and directories can be overwhelming. I want to help you decide if I might be the person to help you. I believe people benefit the most from therapy when they trust they will not be judged and when they have confidence in their therapist. I make every effort to accomplish these two things through my demeanor and use of evidence-based psychotherapy.

I incorporate elements of cognitive-behavioral, hu manistic, client-centered, and psychodynamic therapies depending upon the client and the nature of the presenting problem.
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.

Many of my clients come to me after experiencing constant judgement and shame from their world. This becomes internalized and they often feel stuck from negative self-talk, anxiety or low self-esteem. My clients are not looking for ways to improve a symptom, but are looking to get in touch with their strengths and utilize parts of themselves that were lost. My clients are looking for a calm, nurturing environment where they can explore these issues in a playful manner.

My practice is based on positive hu man functioning, or what makes people thrive, overcome obstacles, and take charge of their good lives.
I believe that therapy is an opportunity for people to get the most out of life. It is a reflection of one’s courage to face familial changes, life stressors and significant emotional experiences. An overarching goal of my practice is to utilize one’s talents, strengths, creativity, wisdom and optimism to help individuals regain control of their complicated lives. As such, I utilize Cognitive Behavioral and Psychodynamic approaches. I find that Psychodynamic Therapy can be particularly beneficial for those who have lost meaning in their lives or have difficulty forming or maintaining relationships.

It’s hard being hu man. In our short window of time on earth we will have moments of great joy and beauty, but also experiences of sadness, stress, and pain. We are confronted with a difficult problem - how do we deal effectively with a reality that spans all different feelings and experiences? Often we deal with them in ineffective ways that leave us feeling worse off than when we started. There is hope, however. Together we can work together to recognize the patterns you're stuck in, learn skills to manage difficult thoughts and feelings more effectively, and work towards a rich and meaningful life.

Feeling connected to and understood provides the foundation for any healthy relationship, including the therapeutic relationship. It is my goal to provide a supportive, trusting and non-judgmental environment in order to foster greater self-awareness, insight and personal growth and fulfillment. One parent of a 13-year old client said: "During one of the darkest and most difficult times in our lives, in you came ready to listen, guide, support, and be a beacon of light in an otherwise dark time. My son immediately felt safe with you and trusted you. That is a true gift and says so much about you both personally and professionally."
