Therapists in New York County, NY

My eclectic therapeutic approach draws from my background as a social worker as well as my training in relational psychoanalysis, psychodynamic psychotherapy, and family/marital therapy. While thinking about the person and their environment I focus on the present and revisit the past in order to better understand how it affects one’s current life. I take into account the individual sitting in front of me and how he or she can best benefit from therapy. The therapeutic relationship is of utmost importance in order for therapy to be effective. Clients should feel safe and comfortable opening up to their therapist.

Are you navigating life transitions related to queer identity, neurodivergence, or spirituality (meaning, purpose, and connection)? Are you seeking holistic neurodivergence or giftedness assessments to better understand your neurotype and how it relates to talents and mental health experiences? Exploring all of this in a safe space can reveal the powerful desires and possibilities within transformational chapters of life.

Welcome! My passion areas are helping couples break old patterns and communicate more effectively, and supporting individuals in healing childhood or sexual trauma, addictions, or unhelpful relationship patterns. If you feel stuck and need accountability, a loving challenge, and support from an experienced therapist, I am here to help. My style is direct, with honest feedback and accountability to move you forward. I am also psychodynamically trained to help you understand how the past informs the present and show you patterns in your life that may have been present with you for many years, but that aren't necessarily serving you.

I provide therapy to individuals, couples, and families, both virtually and in-person. Many of my clients come to therapy to address self-identity and purpose, family relationships (couples, parents, adult siblings), spiritual/religious questions, struggles with self-esteem, acute and chronic grief, sexuality/gender identity issues, and a desire to find a life that is meaningful and in alignment with their values. Articulating a coherent narrative for one's life is a task of deepest import, and therapy, I believe, is a uniquely relevant space to pursue that quest.

Seeking help is the first step in creating real change in your life. I believe that change is possible, and that therapy can lead to a greater sense of freedom and creativity, as you work through old patterns that keep you stuck.Together we will explore the underlying dynamics of your life choices and relationships - including those in your family of origin - with the goal of deep and lasting transformation. In my experience, therapy can foster healing of even longstanding personality and relationship issues, so you can move forward with a new sense of hope.

As a firm believer in a mind-body-spirit approach to psychological health, I incorporate a long history of multi-disciplinary spiritual practice and investigation with my graduate training in relationship / family therapy into a holistic perspective that utilizes transitions and crises as opportunities to deepen insight and life skills that better navigate and manage them. In terms of couples work, I help with communications, developing conflict resolution strategies, healing from infidelities, addiction/codependency, and other sexual issues by examining your familial/relational histories and teaching a variety of guideposts to help you be your best selves, together and individually.

“Everything can be taken from us but one thing, the last of the human freedoms – to choose one’s attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one’s own way” — Viktor Frankl. It is my firm belief that we free ourselves to think and act in new ways when we are willing to embrace the exploration of the self and develop insights into the motivations behind our behavior. We will work together to build a shared understanding of the obstacles that you are facing, whether that means improving your interpersonal relationships, exploring your identity/sexuality/spirituality, strengthening your self esteem, finding motivation and success in your career, navigating overwhelming and traumatic experiences, or identifying maladaptive patterns that may be acting as barriers to the life you want.
