I'm a therapist, a licensed psychologist, accepting new patients in my new Huntington, Long Island, New York office. this is my 33rd year in practice, and I love the work as much as ever. Psychotherapy can serve many purposes. It is perhaps the only venue where we can speak about pretty much anything... not just deep dark problems, "issues", unpleasant events, mental disorders or illnesses, but potentials, dreams, a life in which you have more choices available to you, and more ways of pursuing them alone and in relationship with others. Psychotherapy done well is a powerful sort of education, the kind we don't receive in scho

Waitlist for new clients
Working with a therapist can be viewed in many ways, but I often like to compare it to shoe shopping; you may get lucky on the first pick, or you might have to try on a few pairs before making the purchase. However, when you find the right fit, it may take you to places you’ve never been before. Choosing a therapist you can trust and feel at ease with can make all the difference by leading to a path of empowerment and growth. We cannot escape or undo the pain of past experiences, but we can explore unaddressed emotions, improve our ability to cope, and manage conflicts that prevent us from finding a peaceful balance.

You might seek therapy because you've been feeling overwhelmed, down, or just not how you're used to feeling. You may find it hard to enjoy life, and you may experience the day to day as going-through-the-motions. You might have gone through a trauma, a loss, or other stress that leaves you feeling stuck in distress. You may have tried therapy before, or this could be your first time (and you might be super ambivalent about it!)

Are you struggling with your emotions and feeling stuck? Do you tend to get overwhelmed by your thoughts and are unsure about how to move forward? We all go through life experiences that can impact our present day. These challenges tend to shape the way that we view the world and ourselves. When you choose to begin this journey, we can take a deeper look at unhealthy relationships, negative self-judgments, and unresolved experiences. I often see those experiencing anxiety, challenging family dynamics, depression, perfectionism, and complex trauma.

You just want to fulfill your goals in life and be happy, but you feel stuck. Maybe it is due to a loss, a bad relationship, poor self-image, or an illness. Nevertheless, you have strayed off course and have run out of answers on how to fix it. You're sick of the same old story and realized that you have lost yourself in the shuffle. You just need some help to get back to your true self. I can assist you in therapy with peeling away the layers of yourself that no longer serve you.
