Vulnerability allows for a transformative experience. Nothing you bring to the session is "too much" or “too little”, I will always celebrate your honesty with genuine empathy and curiosity. I believe that we must feel our feelings deeply to inspire insight, growth, and change. Our collaborative efforts involve delving into your thought patterns, emotions, and behaviors to better understand your internal world. Together, we will work to help you identify distressing beliefs and cycles, build upon your strengths, and navigate how you'd like to change the patterns that no longer serve you.

I am a bilingual speaking clinical psychologist providing short-term and long-term psychotherapy. I specialize in treating general mental health concerns including anxiety, depression, and mood disorders. My approach is integrative drawing from psychodynamic theory, interpersonal skills, CBT and DBT. There is no one size fits all model and each session varies based on my client's needs. My goal is to provide a safe and non-judgmental space where my clients can freely express their struggles and explore their vulnerability. Collaboratively, we will understand the underlying issues and formulate a solution.

JUNE 2022: Currently accepting individuals for psychodynamically informed, attachment-oriented, weekly therapy or couples for weekly EFT-based couples therapy (Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy). EFT-based couples therapy seeks to help couples identify the interactional patterns that keep couples disconnected. In understanding these patterns, we work to help partners learn and understand their habitual protective behaviors, their partner's protective behaviors, and to practice NEW ways of responding to one's self and one's partner.

The collective grief of the pandemic has left us facing anxiety and unstability we may have already been managing before, but it's now magnified by the loss of so much of what we remember having. Emerging feelings can include grief, depression, relationship issues, parenting stress, and even anger. This can leave us feeling isolated and alone as we struggle to navigate through the monotony and difficulties of our new every day.

Often when we are struggling with a concern or difficulty in living, we can't help but feel as if we are stuck in a pattern that feels too daunting to make our way out of, even if we have a sense of what it takes to live differently. These patterns frequently maintain themselves in large part because of a lack of resources -- whether it is time, strained relationships, or unmet needs. Attempting to regain these resources can be difficult if done alone.

As we age, whether we are in our twenties or our seventies, we continuously seek internal emotional stability and relational continuity within our complex and rapidly changing world. A committed therapeutic relationship can help you achieve this stability and reach your treatment goals. I can help you free yourself from the familiar unhappiness that comes with externally placed expectations and to construct a new narrative that reveals a more powerful and authentic "self," and brings about more positive results in your life.

Seeking help opens the door of hope. As a psychologist and helping professional, I strive to make clients feel deeply listened to and seen by a caring person. A thorough understanding of where the other person is coming from and the fulfillment that comes when we reach that point of deep connection are priceless. My focus is on the client’s strengths and reframing problems to help inspire growth as I believe that positive lifestyle changes promote healing, optimal functioning, and wellness.

It could be something you consider serious/concerning, but don't free safe discussing. It could even be something concrete like difficulties with your relationships. Or your job is not providing the satisfaction you believe it should. It could be...well it could be a number of other things that prevent you from living the quality of life you want to enjoy.

I am a Marriage and Family Psychotherapist in private practice in Brooklyn for over thirty years and formerly Director of Family Services at a large, multi-modal, private counseling center in Manhattan. Although continuing to work with individuals, for the last twenty years my continued training and professional focus has been on couples, children, and families as it became increasingly clear that engaging the family group was so much more effective and efficient. This comes not merely from having the additional information, but from being able to mobilize the inherent strength of the family and its' intrinsic, natural movement towards growth.
