Find your balance in life and restore your connection to your purpose. Entering therapy can be both an exciting and challenging time in one’s life. Many people enter the therapeutic process to deal with traumatic experiences, to cope with loss, transitions, and relationship stress. Others just want to discover new ways of dealing with old problems. My practice is here to help guide you through that journey. My therapeutic interventions focus on your relationship with the self, your partner(spouse), family members, children, and your work/vocation.

I work with individuals, couples, and families to improve functioning and overall satisfaction through the practice of evidence-based models of therapy, such as Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Narrative Family Therapy (NT), and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), The Gott man Method, and Relational Life Therapy (RLT).
After more than 15 years of teaching at the college level, I turned my passion for helping emerging adults through academic advising into work as a certified life coach. Informed by years of study of Eastern philosophy, mindfulness, and positive psychology, I help clients find balance, improve happiness, and increase resilience. On a personal level, I have experienced the benefits of my own therapy during my adolescence. I am from a family of therapists and value the importance and practice of self-help and lifetime learning as a part of a fulfilling life.

If you are seeking to regain who you once were, uncover who you know you could be, become who you want to be, build on who you already are, or all the above, we can do that together. Life is something that just is; we are what happens in it. I work with you to reclaim what may seem out of your control, to step back into the driver's seat of your own life. We all struggle at times and it is not about how strong or weak we are, but how much support we have.

Feeling anxious all the time is such a crippling feeling and can feel like there is no escaping it. Just when one anxious thought starts to go away, another one shows up and takes its place. It can feel like an endless cycle of racing thoughts, worry, and fear about anything and everything. It’s hard to know when the anxiety will be over especially living in an anxiety-inducing world that is constantly changing which in turn leads to more anxiety. If this sounds like you, you're not alone!

As an ABPP board certified neuropsychologist in the Hudson Valley, those in need of my assessment-evaluation services are children and adults challenged by learning difficulties, attentional deficits, memory problems, and pragmatic-social communication issues with underlying causes in neurological and/or environmental circumstances. In addition these individuals also unfortunately, but understandably, experience emotional distress associated with these difficulties. These difficulties may have had their onset in early development, through illness, as a result of injury, or developing in later adulthood. Their conditions usually impact major life roles in school, work, and relationships.

Male Therapists
As a man, why might I want to see a male therapist?
There are many reasons a man might wish to work with a male therapist, including a degree of shared identity, which may help client and therapist connect to each other and allow for a more free-flowing discussion of issues that can be deeply personal. Some men may feel more comfortable talking to a male therapist about relationship concerns, the pressures they feel around the roles society and family place on men, career or job challenges, self-esteem, or anger problems. For some men who have not had a male role models in their lives, a good male therapist may be especially helpful.
How can I find out about a therapist’s experience treating men?
Individuals looking for treatment should feel comfortable directly asking a therapist about their history treating men overall and the issues that arise in therapy with men. A good therapist will be happy to discuss such matters as well as their educational background, approach to treatment, and how they think they can aid a prospective client. Prospective clients should also ask what the expectation is for treatment, and what the fee structure is, and whether and which insurance plans are accepted.
Can clients benefit from having a therapist of the same gender?
Therapy is not gender-specific, but some men as well as women feel more comfortable opening up about their experiences and history with a male therapist. An individual may feel that they have to explain less background information and be on the same page more quickly, particularly when discussing gender-specific challenges, in the case of male clients. Some women have prior negative experiences with women that predispose them to prefer working with a male in therapy. That said, a good clinician can transcend most if not all gender concerns. Ultimately, the most important factor in therapy is the connection and trust the client is able to build with the practitioner.
Would a male therapist have specific training in treating men?
Generally, no. There are no certifications for treating men specifically, but there are continuing education classes that therapists may take that focus on treating men as a group. There are many therapists who focus on men and male issues in their treatment and therefore have experience and expertise in this domain.
