I treat a variety of mental health issues through Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing ( EMDR), mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT), and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) approaches.
Trust and full transparency, are the two biggest core elements of therapy. I aim to achieve this by being warm and nonjudgmental, using humor when appropriate, and truly listening to understand you. I offer a compassionate and straightforward approach helping you confront your thought processes and actions in order to help you accomplish the changes you would like to make in your life. I specialize in anxiety, depression, and body image issues, with the addition of mood disorders, educational difficulties, low self-esteem, ADHD, trauma PTSD, communication skills, stress management, and eating disorders.

I have also received training in EMDR and adult psychoanalysis and am in private practice in White Plains.
If you are feeling bad about yourself and aspects of your life, therapy can help improve your self-esteem, mood, and the quality of your life. I work with adults and adolescents who are struggling with a wide range of issues. Some are confused and unhappy about their relationships or troubled by their performance at work or school. Others come into therapy because of a crisis in their lives, such as illness, divorce, or the loss of a loved one. I also see people who are having trouble adjusting to a life transition, like going away to college or becoming a parent. Still others are bothered by events from the past. Whatever the issue, feeling overwhelmed, anxious, depressed and/or angry are common.

I am a Level 5 Prolonged Grief Therapist and trainer, Certified in EMDR and in Death, Dying and Bereavement.
Although grief is a natural response to loss, for many people learning to adapt to life without their loved one is challenging. When the loss is sudden, traumatic, or the loss of a child, the challenges can be even greater. It can be helpful to work with a therapist who understands grief and can help navigate the emotions and thoughts that accompany the loss.

My practice is dedicated to offering individuals the supports necessary to navigate through pain from our past to a place of resiliency.

I'm also certified in EMDR Therapy, an evidenced based treatment for trauma and anxiety.
Do you constantly think "something bad is going to happen" or struggle with constant thoughts of "what if"? Do you feel like you're always on edge and you can't relax, no matter what? Everyone experiences a healthy amount of worry from time to time, but constant anxiety can be debilitating. If left untreated, anxiety can impact your physical health, threaten your job, and make it difficult to have deep, meaningful relationships. This is especially true for parents, who's anxiety makes it difficult to calmly and effectively be there for their children.

EMDR Therapists
Who is EMDR for?
EMDR was initially developed as a treatment for individuals with Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), for whom memories of a deeply distressing experience can be inadvertently triggered by random everyday events. The procedure has since been applied in the treatment of many other conditions. For example, it is used by some therapists to treat anxiety disorders including panic and phobias, depression, dissociative disorders, eating disorders, obsessive-compulsive disorders, and some personality disorders. It is suitable for adolescents and adults.
Why do people need EMDR?
People need EMDR as a way to manage distressing memories that in some way hamper the ability to function in the present. The procedure is believed to target the way memories are stored in the brain. Evidence indicates that past disturbing experiences cause ongoing distress because they were not adequately processed, and when such memories are triggered in the present, they are accompanied by all the emotions, thoughts, and physical sensations as the initial experience.
What problems does EMDR treat?
First and foremost, EMDR is intended as a treatment for PTSD, to defuse distressing memories that intrude on and impair everyday functioning. It is also often used to help those who are subject to panic attacks, phobias, and other forms of anxiety. In addition, EMDR has been used to treat individuals with depression, eating disorders, and personality disorders.
What happens in EMDR therapy?
First the therapist takes an individual’s history, and then the therapist and client decide which distressing experience(s) will be the target(s) of the exercise, delivered via a side-to-side visual stimulus requiring lateral eye movements. The client will be asked to activate thoughts, feelings, and any body sensations related to the troubling experience. The eye movements are said to reduce the emotional charge of the memory, so that the experience can then be safely discussed with the therapist and digested, minimizing its ability to trigger anxiety.
