Understanding your emotions and being able to express them with a trained professional can help you overcome the challenges in your life. It is common to avoid thoughts and feelings that are distressing, and for this reason many people hesitate calling a therapist until long after they initially contemplate it. I focus on the reasons behind these avoidances in order to make life more manageable, and I do so in a safe, comfortable, and nonjudgmental space. Discussing and understanding your past experiences and relationships are important parts of gaining insight and making necessary changes.
I work with children and adults from diverse backgrounds, ages, education levels, sexual orientations, and gender identities. I have 11 years of experience working with those struggling with anxiety, depression, eating disorders, relationship difficulties, and various forms of trauma. I attend to each individual client’s unique goals.
I am a licensed clinical psychologist with experience treating individuals in both short- and long-term therapy. I am a psychoanalyst with training in cognitive behavioral therapy. I worked as a psychologist at New York Presbyterian Hospital/Columbia University Medical Center for over 3 years, where I provided individual and group psychotherapy.
