I've specialized in helping folks through tough times for over two decades. Through a warm, down-to-earth, collaborative approach I'll partner with you to achieve your goals and find inner peace. By using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with a focus on mindfulness and your unique strengths, I can help you understand and modify your thoughts, feelings and behaviors. My areas of expertise include managing anxiety, reducing stress around relationships, family, work and life transitions, improving self esteem, setting boundaries, living with infertility and childlessness, adults with ADHD and living with neurodiverse children and partners.

Life has a way of proving just how much is out of our control, but that doesn’t have to stop us from pursuing and achieving our goals. While navigating roadblocks, therapy can help you process feelings of uncertainty, loneliness and anxiety. I understand how difficult the journey to mental wellness can be and am honored to walk beside you. Ultimately, I believe in your ability to discern the right path and solutions. I believe it is my role to assist in uncovering those answers and support healing while offering a space to be vulnerable. I specialize in the treatment of anxiety, depression, infertility, and life transitions.

All families experience transitions, and even positive change can cause stress. I employ an eclectic approach with a strong emphasis on attachment, structural, and solution-focused family therapies. I work with young children and their caregivers to form secure attachments early on. This leads to more effective communication and problem solving patterns and a higher level of resilience down the road. My work tends to be short term and builds on the existing strengths of your family. My work with couples is attachment informed as we look at past and current relationships to elucidate our most fulfilling ways of connecting.

I am a seasoned psychotherapist with an office in charming Cobble Hill, Brooklyn. I have been in practice for over 20 years. I have a PsyD in psychoanalysis and am a licensed clinical social worker with the necessary credentials for reimbursement by insurance. My therapeutic style is warm and interactive. I have many patients working in artistic fields who need a creative therapist. Additionally, I do couples work using emotionally focused therapy. I have experience working with a wide range of issues including: depression, anxiety and panic attacks, infertility, divorce, parenting teens and LGBTQ issues.

You don't have to go through difficult times alone. By seeking help, you have already taken the first step toward making positive life changes. The next step is finding the right person to guide, motivate and support you. I am a counselor with a healthy dose of optimism and realism. I love to work with my clients on problem solving, new skill building, and developing a greater understanding of themselves and the world around us. If you are looking for something "different" from your counselor, I may be a good fit.

I work with folks who want help understanding themselves, finding compassion and acceptance for themselves and figuring out more fulfilling ways to live. My clients often have trauma in their backgrounds and a big part of my work is giving them the tools and information they need to operate trauma-affected brains with less strife, more delight. I also work with folks around identity, sexuality and gender, helping them reject shame and grasp hold of the life they want to live authentically.

I work with various issues including infertility, pregnancy and postpartum, anxiety, depression, eating disorders, stress management, grief and loss, and marriage/relationship.

Welcome! I enjoy working with individuals and couples, and walking alongside them in their healing. I believe therapy is a collaborative experience between the family and therapist, that each client has the resiliency and resources they need already within, and that it is our job to uncover them. My work with clients considers biological, psychological, social, and spiritual factors. I specialize in working with clients who are experiencing relational distress, sex concerns, infertility/pregnancy issues, transracial/transnational family dynamics, processing trauma, religion and spirituality, body-image concerns, or low self esteem.

Making the decision to seek therapy takes courage and finding the right therapist can seem overwhelming. Yes, it's important to find someone with the appropriate credentials and experience, but it's also just as important that you feel comfortable with your therapist. If the match is right, you should feel heard, understood, and respected. I understand the importance of the relationship between a therapist and client, thus I seek to create a safe, trusting, and welcoming environment. I approach therapy from a place of acceptance and non-judgment because I truly want to learn about you, your concerns, and your goals.

I specialize in perinatal mental health which means I work with individuals who are trying to conceive, pregnant, experiencing infertility, miscarriage or infant loss, and those new to parenthood. In our work we'll get honest about the highs and lows of the perinatal period. You will get to say out loud, the things so many women are thinking and feeling but so few speak of. My favorite conversations are the ones that start with, "I don't know if this makes me a bad person but..." I'm going to help you feel So Normal about the experiences you currently feel guilt, shame, and uncertainty around. And we'll find your path forward.

I enjoy working with individual adult clients who want to participate more fully in their lives and who are looking for a supportive, empathetic therapist to address their concerns. Clients describe me as warm, compassionate, and relatable with a willingness to incorporate humor as part of the healing process. While I am kind and supportive, I also challenge stuck-points to create movement and directly address client distress and mental health symptoms.

My focus as a therapist is cultivating an environment of acceptance and warmth so that my clients may feel empowered to engage in self-exploration and develop additional ways of coping. I facilitate self-exploration aimed towards increasing client's sense of joy, creativity, self-forgiveness, perspective, confidence, warmth, compassion, and desire to heal. I have experience providing therapy for clients experiencing postpartum depression and anxiety, infertility, and mental health issues in pregnancy. I also have experience with generalized anxiety, depression, stressful life transitions, grief, trauma, and relationship issues.
