Psychotherapy lays the emotional groundwork that leads to a more happy and satisfying life. Many people think of psychotherapy, especially some kinds of traditional psychotherapy, as one-sided: the person in therapy talks and the therapist listens. But effective psychotherapy – therapy that heals – works because of the unique relationship that develops between the therapist and the person in therapy. I provide an environment that, because it is safe and non-judgmental, allows the person in...

Hi all! I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist based in Brooklyn, NY.

During my doctoral training, I completed placements at Brooklyn College Counseling Program, in addition to several hospital inpatient and outpatient programs. In my private practice work, I have continued work with the young adult population that I love, working wit...

Sharing a life with someone is hard. Having an expectation that this life will somehow match what we see in movies or read in books can make anyone feel like a failure. In my practice, I do my best to help couples find ways to connect, build trust, and learn how to turn toward each other regardless of past experiences and hurts. My focus in individual therapy uses Attachment Theory as a springboard to better understand the underlying messages that shape how people see themselves as individual...

Throughout my career treating those with substance abuse and mental health issues, I have learned that one of therapy's most healing aspects is the relationship and trust we build with one another.

I utilize a combination of theoretical approaches including motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral therapy, and relational therapy. Together we can tap...
