I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in New York State. In my work I find it useful to draw on a variety of clinical perspectives as each client brings to the process a unique set of needs, strengths, and goals. I love helping clients get unstuck from the patterns they live and relive over and over, whether it be in their jobs, families, relationships, or even inside their own heads.

I enjoy working with clients in the restaurant industry, with its unique strains and stresses, with creatives and performers, and with people who fall outside the gender binary, hetero norms, and relationship structures. In my personal and professional life, I gravitate toward queer people and those living unconventional lifestyles. I have considerable therapeutic experience with gay men and the challenges they face systematically, individually, and within relationships. I am versed in sex therapy, with a focus on kink and paraphilias, and sex work. I also work with relationships of all kinds.

Many of my clients struggle in relationships with themselves, family, partners, events from their past, or with certain habits. I often find that at the core of these struggles is the basic need to be understood and accepted. My approach to therapy is collaborative and you-centered; I strive to create a space that invites exploration and curiosity, rather than criticism and shame. With therapy, you'll begin to see yourself and others with less negative, isolating emotions, and in a more balanced and compassionate light.

My work as a psychologist is rooted in a profound belief that by recognizing and honoring our complex, messy life stories with honesty and gentleness, we lay the foundation to heal the obstacles preventing us from building fulfilling, meaningful lives. Throughout life, we all create narratives about ourselves to help us survive. These narratives are shaped by myriad factors (individual life experiences, relationships, intergenerational legacies, and experiences of oppression/privilege, belonging/rejection, among others). Over time, our narratives and coping mechanisms fall short. We wonder, what went wrong?Why? What's wrong with me?

My ideal client is someone who comes to therapy in a time of need. They might be experiencing anxiety due to life changes and transitions or they might be experiencing symptoms of anxiety for the first time and be concerned as to where the anxiety came from. The client might be processing loss or grief from a loved one or past friendships and or relationships. My ideal client will have needs such as needing to identify coping skills to get through life stressors, assistance with reaching goals. As a therapist I would be able to provide the client with a objective perspective to bounce their ideas and situations off of.

I help patients deal with blocks that prevent them having the best possible life and healthy, loving relationships. I use an empathetic, psychodynamic approach but also employ cognitive techniques - i.e. exercises during the session and homework. I want to help people notice and change their self-destructive patterns. I also help artists uncover the roots of their struggles with motivation and self-doubt.

Psychotherapy is an investment in a life lived consciously and self-reflectively. With respect for the complexity of psychological problems and their uniquely subjective meaning and function for each person, the "work" of psychotherapy fosters a curiosity about ourselves, our histories, our relational patterns, our ways of thinking and behaving, and of managing stress and loss. Questions like - why do I do the things I do? Choose to be involved with this type of person? React to stress or loss this way? Why am I stuck? Sad? Empty feeling? - help us develop insight and the capacity for informed change.

Finding a therapist can be a daunting process. I believe it is important to feel at ease in order to do the work therapy entails. I provide a comfortable, down-to-earth environment that will allow you to develop insight, find more choices in your life, and to build self confidence. I have advanced training in psychoanalysis and psychodynamic psychotherapy, however unlike classical analysis I do not act as a blank screen and have a contemporary approach. I provide feedback and believe in mutual collaboration between patient and therapist.
