In private practice for over 25 years, I have provided services to children, adolescents, adults and couples who are struggling with inner turmoil and the challenges of everyday life. I believe it is only by truly listenning to the bullied child, the nervous young man, the recently divorced woman, or the parents of an anorexic teen that a therapist can understand and provide the support and treatment that truly helps.

Hello, welcome to my page on psychology today. I'm a seasoned Clinical Psychologist working at Stony Brook University Hospital in their Outpatient Department. My work is eclectic and integrated between a dynamic perspective and integrative CBT. I work with people who want to learn to feel ok with their experiences, regulate their emotions, and create a more satisfying life. It is my clinical intention to help resolve the problems that prevent them from achieving these goals. I believe in empowering people to help themselves through self-understanding. Only when we know what is wrong do we have the potential to change it.

I believe that we are primarily social beings and that our relationships, past and present, continuously impact our growth as individuals. Humans are highly resilient, and we tend to persevere through negative experiences. However, certain relationships can have long-lasting negative consequences on how we see ourselves and engage with the people in our lives. When this happens, people often find themselves in a dysfunctional and frustrating pattern of maladaptive thinking and behavior that results in persistent interpersonal struggles.

As a clinical social worker and psychotherapist with a wide range of expertise, I can help guide you toward self-awareness in a supportive environment . I have had tremendous success dealing with individuals suffering from anxiety and depression along with families, couples and individuals looking for change in their lives.

I am a caring and compassionate psychotherapist who specializes in providing therapy to children, adolescents and adults. My expertise includes treating anxiety, depression and issues involving self-esteem, stress management, parenting, separation, divorce, relationship and women's issues including prenatal and postpartum depression.

My philosophy is to approach each person as unique with personal strengths. In a supportive atmosphere I will help you explore ingrained and disruptive patterns, to enhance personal growth, improve self esteem, mood and personal relationships. I see therapy as a partnership that allows for a respectful give and take relationship. The ultimate goal is for you to reach your highest level of happiness and satisfaction in your life.

You are right...life can be messy and at times, hard and overwhelming. It doesn't have to be this difficult, draining and challenging. The experience of stress, anxiety, depression, grief, life transitions and trauma all impact our ability to be fully present in our lives. As we move forward in an uncertain world, now is the time to empower self care, healing, inner peace, and confidence. Searching for support is an important step towards living an authentic and positive life experience. You, your feelings, and your goals are a priority. Together we can work toward rising above the mess and helping you achieve your best self.

As a dual-trained cognitive neuroscientist and clinical psychologist, I take a holistic approach to treatment focusing on maximizing mental health and well-being for each individual, rather than focusing on “illness”. I specialize in lifespan treatment of anxiety, mood, and impulsive and compulsive disorders with cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness, and humanistic approaches. By combining evidence-based psychotherapy with a deep understanding of neuroscience I give patients a unique, comprehensive perspective.

Smiling is hard when there’s only pain inside. High anxiety, racing thoughts and loneliness overshadow every hint of joy in your life. As your energy plummets, small tasks become huge. Just talking seems like a chore. Irritability and exhaustion are a constant battle. Loved ones complain that you are removed and shutdown. You want to let them in, but it’s hard to trust anyone. It’s become impossible to turn off that negative voice in your head that keeps saying you aren’t good enough. No one understands. Everything triggers you. The past is tied up with the present, your thoughts are dark, and you’re afraid of losing everything
