It can be challenging to process all sorts of mixed emotions, as they wear you down in your personal and professional life. You may even begin to have self-doubts, struggling to move forward with your goals. The process of navigating these challenges on your own can be confusing, drowning, and overwhelming. I will work with you to build a collective space where we explore your concerns together, understand your emotions, and help you reestablish meaningful connections with others. I see therapy as interactions where you will be empowered to confront reality and appreciate yourself as a whole.

Do you find yourself overwhelmed and stressed? Have work or personal relationships become unmanageable. Sometimes life calls for outside assitance, and psychotherapy can be very effective at alleviating distress. In my practice, I use an interactive and collaborative approach where an individual can explore, learn, and heal in an atmoshpere of trust and safety. I combine psychodynamic therapy that searches for the root causes of problems with coginitive-behavioral techniques when needed that offer more immediate structured coping skills.

Life’s challenges can leave you feeling stuck or uncertain about your next steps. Whether you're struggling with your identity, family conflict, or navigating a major life transition, I believe meaningful change can begin with a single conversation. Every person is unique, shaped by their experiences, emotions, and obstacles. My aim as a therapist is to honor that individuality by creating a safe, supportive space where you feel truly seen, heard, and understood. Together, we'll explore patterns influencing your thoughts and behaviors, uncovering insights that can help you break free from limiting cycles.

I am very direct and straight forward in my approach. As an interpersonal therapist my emphasis is on developing an honest and trusting relationship with clients, offering thoughts about the client's underlying issues. My objective is to create a therapeutic environment in which the client feels he /she can say whatever is on his/her mind. My belief is that a good relationship between therapist and patient is indispensable if progress is to be made. I always respect the client's agenda and never attempt to impose my own.

As a clinical psychologist, I meet my patients exactly where they are. We work together to bring about symptom relief from the issues that have led them to therapy; to change longstanding negative patterns which continue to get in the way. The goal is to create and sustain a happier, meaningful and more fulfilling life. I have worked in many NYC hospitals including Mt. Sinai and Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, as well as a fellowship at the William Alanson White Institute. Using an eclectic approach, I practice cognitive-behavioral, interpersonal and psychoanalytic techniques to tailor treatment to each individual's needs.

I work best with people who want to change their lives but feel stuck, confused and paralyzed by fear and anxiety. They feel dishonest with themselves and frustrated for giving up on their true desires. However, deep inside they know they can do better. This struggle is their most intimate enemy. They feel alienated and unhappy sometimes in their relationships, work, profession, and in their daily lives in general. I help them to feel more confident about themselves, motivated to take control over their lives and to make the changes they want to make.

For 25 years I have worked closely with individuals and families and have developed an eclectic set of skills that work effectively with people experiencing a life crisis, loss, and change. Most of us have asked ourselves the purpose/meaning of our lives. We have all had obstacles obscure the path we wish to walk on. Talking can bring clarity. Bringing awareness brings self knowledge that can help you transform into the person you aspire to be. You are welcome to join me in this search for self.
