We will never know our true life and emotional potential until we grasp these psychological tools, which can and will transform us into the best possible version of ourselves.
Dealing with anxiety or depression can be very distressing. In those moments or times, our priority becomes finding relief. However, the bigger picture is that we must focus on learning the tools that shift our mood and create an emotionally more fulfilling lifestyle. Think about the times when you felt completely confident and happy. It is very unlikely you felt any emotional discomfort. An elevated and confident emotional state will banish emotional distress. It is the antidote. Why? Anxiety and depression, which result from fear and doubt, have no place when confidence and optimism take hold.

I live in New York City and I understand the challenges of balancing professional and family life in a fast-paced urban environment.
Did you move to NY to succeed but you are not where you thought you would be? Do you often question your career choices and can’t seem to find the best “next step”? Do you catch yourself criticizing your life on a daily basis? Whether you are an immigrant or simply relocating from another state, Gotham inevitably captures you. I know that it sounds cliché but the energy of the city is present in every sector. And you will soon realize, if you have not already, that when you work and/or reside in an environment surrounded by thousands of talented people your desire to succeed becomes even greater.

Build your life framework towards your soul's purpose.
Adolescents and young people are creating a bridge for their adult future. I am passionate about guiding this process of transformation for the world’s future. I work with parents, families, children, youth, and adolescents to learn to fully live in the world and to claim a place for each individual for the whole. Gary teaches teens to meet their absolute place in the world. Together I help each adolescent move beyond stuck-ness, anxiety or uncertainty. You may be a parent struggling with your teen’s screen or gaming addiction with no solution. Left alone, it could take years - if ever – for him move to a zest for life.

As I often say to my coaching clients, "The only time that allows for real action is the present moment.
Finding work that you are passionate about may seem like a fantasy, especially in this economic environment. Yet my approach to career development is a time-proven process that advances your life forward, even during challenging times. Whether you are looking for work, thinking of changing jobs, or feeling you are in the wrong industry entirely, you deserve a more fulfilling and satisfying career path.

My approach is psychodynamic and holistic, with a coaching perspective and an emphasis on personal growth.
Are you having trouble in your relationships, at work, or when you're alone, because of panic attacks, obsessions or compulsions? Has depression eroded your confidence and sapped the pleasure from life? Therapy can help. Are you looking for a new partner, or perhaps grieving a loss? Do you struggle at work or in school? Do you or someone you are caring for suffer from a medical illness? These are all very stressful situations, and a good time to talk with a trained professional. Therapy can help you increase space in your life for self-care and compassion, self-awareness and reflection, and provide support in making changes.

With that in mind, I look forward to working with you to reinvigorate your enthusiasm for life.
It takes courage to tell your story, be vulnerable, and practice introspection. But as the old saying goes, “a problem shared is a problem halved.” Whether you’re experiencing challenges in your relationships, family, career, health, or questioning your life path, we’ll work together to find a solution. I’m a Counselor and Life Coach who supports people during life transitions—including marriage, divorce, career changes, motherhood, and grief and loss. Whatever you’re going through, I’ll be a compassionate listener who reframes the situation and so you can see it in a different, more positive, light.
