In Person Therapists in Chappaqua, NY

Twenty years of experience working with families of kids who have trouble fitting in. Most have difficulty regulating their mood and behavior and are wired differently than other kids. The focus of my work is to understand why certain behaviors repeatedly occur and to help families and schools develop better ways of dealing with those problems. Many of these children/adults carry diagnoses of ASP/HFA, ADHD, and/or MOOD REGULATION DISORDER. Most have sensory regulation, attention and communication problems. Please call me to see if I am a good match for your family.

Isn't it frustrating to be confronted with life issues that can cause hardship and emotional pain. That despite your best efforts a more desirable outcome seems illusive. Sometimes, we all need a helping hand to identify and initiate more effective life strategies. I can help you promote desirable changes with either long standing personal issues or more acute ones that have been brought on by circumstances or unfortunate life events. No matter what the situation, the opportunity for positive change is always present.

I am an empathic Psychologist who uses humor to speak about difficult topics. My goal is to help my clients reach their goals whether that be increased insight, behavior change, or managing thoughts. I use a non-judgmental and supportive stance to help my clients feel more comfortable when speaking about issues that may make them feel vulnerable. At times, I can be irreverent and direct, which helps when we find ourselves avoiding what needs to be addressed. In addition to working with clients in my private practice, I work for Northwell Health providing psychotherapy to Residents, Fellows, and other Medical/Professional Staff.
