My approach to therapy is straight forward, solution focused and empathetic. I understand that life can throw you curves and living with change and uncertainty can lead you down an unfamiliar path. 2021 has been a year of change, adjustment, stress and hardship. If you are tired of working on your issues alone, now may be the time to seek out help. In fact, you are making a courageous first step. You may not know what to do to make your life better, you just know that you want things to change and you want to be happier and healthier. I can help you sort out what steps you need to take to identify and address your issues.

I view therapy as an active, engaging and collaborative process. People say that I am not like other therapists. "He worked hard to see me, hear me, understand my issues and accept me for who I am. He did not sit back and say uh-huh every few minutes. Together we found solutions to long standing problems."

Trusting relationships do matter and from the beginning of the therapy process. I work hard to provide a safe and caring place to talk. I typically spend the first session getting to know who you are, where you want to be, and what is standing in your way of getting unstuck. Call me today and discover if I am the right resource for you.

You may have tried talking to family and friends. That's a good start, but sometimes they can not maintain distance. Finding a professional with whom you can develop a connection is key to the therapeutic relationship. I have been trained to listen thoughtfully, and help you deal with your unique situation. I can help you explore your options and develop the coping skills you need to manage your life productively. My objective is to establish a safe environment where your feelings can emerge and you feel understood.

I have advanced post graduate training in psychoanalysis, psychotherapy, couples therapy, shopping and eating disorders. My style is interactive, and collaborative.

Because we seek therapy for such deeply personal and hurtful problems, it is important to find someone you like and trust. It is also important to feel well understood and free to express strong feelings.I think with supportive and pragmatic feedback, you can get a handle on where your feelings are taking you.

Taking the first step toward therapy can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to face life’s challenges alone. Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, ADHD, depression, trauma, substance use, stress, or major life transitions, I provide a supportive space where you can feel heard, understood, and empowered to grow. I work with adults 18+ who are ready to better understand themselves, build healthier coping strategies, and create meaningful change in their lives. I believe therapy works best when you feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely connected with your therapist. My approach is warm, collaborative, and nonjudgmental.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Certified Bilingual School Psychologist with 17 years of psychotherapy experience and 20 years working as a school psychologist. This background gives me a deep understanding of how emotional patterns develop across childhood, adolescence, and adulthood, and how past experiences continue to shape a person’s current challenges.

Before becoming a therapist, I spent over 20 years in the corporate sector. That experience allows me to understand the pressures, expectations, and identity struggles faced by working professionals, especially those dealing with anxiety, burnout, and relationship stress.

I specialize in anxiety, depression, life transitions, and identity‐related concerns. I work effectively with millennials, Gen Z, Gen X, and baby boomers — anyone navigating change, uncertainty, or a sense of not fitting in. Born and raised in New York City, I bring a grounded, compassionate, and down‐to‐earth presence to therapy. I offer sessions in both English and Spanish and strive to create a warm, nonjudgmental space where clients feel safe to explore, heal, and grow.

I have been in practice for thirty-years. I have a virtual private practice and am on faculty at a local university. I specialize in relationship issues across the lifespan.
