Are you experiencing anxiety you just can't shake? Have you been spending months trying to reach a conclusion about something you fear will ruin your life? Are you repeating actions or thoughts to try to achieve a sense of certainty? If so, you may be struggling with Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD). I am an OCD expert who wants to help you learn how to neutralize the power of your thoughts. Your life doesn’t have to be this challenging anymore: OCD is extremely treatable in the right hands.

Are you troubled by relationships, intimacy, or sex; has something changed that has left you unhappy, frustrated, or confused? Do you want to feel more comfortable with yourself or your partner. I create an environment for you to express yourself and help you implement practical approaches to address your concerns. I have 10+ years experience as a clinical psychologist and certified sex therapist in NYC. My practice specializes in treating men and women of all sexual orientations with their sexual health and relationship concerns, including all sexual dysfunctions, difficulties with sexual expression, and mismatched levels of desire.

As a lifespan neuropsychologist I work with patients ages 5 years up through 85+ who have developmental, neurologic, and psychiatric conditions affecting their cognitive functioning (i.e., attention, learning/memory, etc.), behavior, and/or mood. My practice provides neuropsychological, psychological, and psychoeducational evaluations. In general, exams include a clinical interview, testing, and a record review. Neuropsychological exams can be brief (3 to 4 hours) or more comprehensive (6 to 10 hours) depending on the reason for referral/consultation. Please contact me for additional information.

I am a clinical psychologist with expertise providing individual and family psychotherapy from an attachment based lens. I love what I do and am passionate about supporting children, families, and adults as they traverse life's challenges. I believe everyone is unique and deserves highly attuned support when life's struggles present themselves. I consider therapy a positive outlet to discuss, explore, and foster new aspects of our lives. I utilize a powerful combination of evidence-based and attachment-focused interventions and work in a collaborative way helping empower individuals and families reach their goals.

I practice Holistic Psychology and am passionate about making evidence-based therapeutic practices accessible. Therapy with me is collaborative, flexible, and strengths-based. My approach is grounded in scientifically-backed methods with specialized training in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT). I see clients of all ages ranging from young childhood through adulthood, including families and couples.

I help people love themselves more, quiet their minds, and embrace the lives they truly want and deserve to be living. Therapy with me will be challenging, fun, freeing, and honest without judgment. I believe that we all have the ability to live full, rich, rewarding lives. We hold ourselves back through negative thinking, anxiety, and self doubt. I have extensive experience with many different groups of people and issues and tailor my approach to your needs and personality. I specialize in depression, anxiety, relationship issues, substance abuse, trauma, and body image issues, among others

I am dedicated to facilitating deep and impactful change. I not only treat symptoms but encourage my clients to aim for more connected and fulfilled lives. I believe that a safe, supportive and truly affirming environment is the beginning. From this place, clients are able to take necessary risks, enhance connections to self and others, lift or establish boundaries, desensitize and reprocess distress, among other meaningful shifts. This is achieved through methods such as imaginal and in-vivo exposure, visualization, mindful breathing and noticing and modifying experiences in real-time.

Trying to manage life is a never-ending journey. With what life throws at us like heartache, loss, and overwhelming moments that become trying. With us not knowing which directions to take and feeling all feelings at once we can end in areas of anxiety, depression and negative behavior patterns. In times we face adversity, we tend to already have a solution but have a hard time with the steps and changes needed to get there.

My therapeutic style balances working collaboratively with clients while allowing them the space and support to work through whatever they bring to the session. I use an empathetic approach to connect with clients to build a trusting relationship and foster an environment of safety, warmth, and understanding. I use an eclectic lens of psychotherapy and draw on techniques from multiple theories including CBT, psychodynamic, person-centered, and positive psychology. I also understand that every individual is unique and therefore I rely on each client’s strengths and attributes to cater to their needs during sessions.

Through my meaningful work with clients, I apply an emphasis on identifying what has been holding you back from achieving goals, or causing unhealthy patterns in your every day life. I will always focus on holding a safe space for you, and identifying your individual needs while building the confidence that is necessary to improve your coping skills, lifestyle, and overall well-being. In my work, I often pull techniques from therapeutic approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, and emotion-focused therapy, while maintaining a warm and gentle approach.

I use compassion, care, and humor to create a non-judgmental space and engage clients in a practical, collaborative, and problem-solving process. I believe developing trusting relationships with clients promotes client well-being and healing. Using a relational, CBT, trauma-informed, solution-focused, and strengths-based approach, I work with clients to facilitate self-efficacy and goal attainment. My specialties focus on helping individuals struggling with anxiety, stressors, self-esteem, interpersonal challenges with friends, partners, and family, as well as unhealthy romantic relationships, sexual assault, and trauma.

Having trouble finding, maintaining a relationship? Do you struggle with emotional eating and body image/self-esteem? See me quoted in New York Post, "Is This The Most Dangerous Diet Ever?" by Doree Lewak. Are you pulling your hair out? Trouble sleeping? Feeling stuck, hopeless? I'll help you get what you want sooner, using a variety of techniques to overcome your problems. It may be scary to reach out for help, but it's so much better than continuing down the same unsatisfying path. I listen actively and respond immediately to your concerns with warmth, understanding, and practical suggestions.

I am a private psychotherapist that utilizes a holistic, person centered, strength-based approach to help you heal from inside-out, at your own pace, and own comfort level. I will help you resolve inner conflicts that affect your life and help you achieve life balance. I draw from various treatment approaches such as attachment based, CBT, Object Relations, and Psychodynamic psychotherapy. With over 16 years of clinical experience, my main goal is to offer you a consistent and predictable therapeutic space to help you achieve a more balanced life.

Therapy is a wonderful opportunity to gain a deeper sense of understanding and fulfillment in your life. By exploring your thoughts, feelings and behaviors you will begin to develop more self-awareness and self-acceptance. We often find ourselves feeling stuck, unmotivated, anxious or depressed. Therapy provides an opportunity to gain insight, heal from past wounds and work towards your goals in a supportive and collaborative environment. Using a variety of treatment techniques including mindfulness, psychodynamic and evidence based practices, I work collaboratively with you to explore ways to achieve a happier and healthier life.

I have worked with clients from diverse backgrounds with various concerns including depression, trauma, anxiety, discrimination, ADHD, body image concerns, and life adjustments.

Are you tired of getting trapped in worry loops, panic attacks, trauma memories, or relationship patterns that aren’t working for you? Do you want to make a change in your life, but aren’t sure where to start? If so, I'd love to talk more about how I can help. I’m a NYC-based psychologist and the founder of the group practice Elevate CBT. I help clients with a range of problems, including anxiety, panic attacks, OCD, difficulty managing emotions, eating/body image concerns, and difficulty navigating the NYC dating scene. Young adults (18+) and college students make up a large part of my practice.

I am a clinical psychologist with training in DBT, CBT, ACT, and mindfulness/compassion based approaches. I see my role as a therapist as someone who helps you to identify personal development goals and work with you, through a combination of evidence based treatment and emotion support and processing, to help you reach those goals.

Tired of people-pleasing? Feeling burned out, lost and don't know why? Feeling overwhelmed by the challenges of life? You're not alone. Whether you're recovering from PTSD, relationship trauma, dealing with the aftermath of narcissistic abuse, or struggling with co-dependency, anxiety, or depression, I'm here to support you every step of the way.
