I am a Columbia University trained psychotherapist licensed and practicing in New Jersey and New York. I have worked in a variety of settings with clients in every age group from diverse cultural and religious backgrounds facing a wide variety of challenges. I've had the privilege of serving as a child advocate and crisis hotline operator for an emergency shelter serving survivors of domestic violence, intimate partner violence, and sexual assault. I have experience working in a hospital setting with children and families struggling to cope with chronic illness. I have worked with children, adolescents, adults, and couples in the private practice setting for the past 6 years. I have a special sensitivity for adolescents and adults who have struggled with a dysfunctional family, codependency, abuse, neglect, self-harm, suicidal ideation, substance abuse/self-medicating, disordered eating, their spiritual/religious beliefs, their sexuality, loss, and grief.

Therapist

Most people don't come to therapy because one thing went wrong, they come because something has been quietly accumulating. Maybe it's a worry that won't turn off, a loss that hasn't had anywhere to go, a version of themselves they don't quite recognize, or a relationship running on the same argument for the third year in a row. If any of that sounds familiar, you're in a very ordinary kind of pain, and it's workable.

I'm Anna, Licensed Clinical Social Worker, and an Alcohol and Drug Counselor. I work with people ages 6 and up — kids, teens, adults, couples, and whole families — on anxiety, trauma, grief, life transitions, and relationships.
