I am a Columbia University trained psychotherapist and have been practicing therapy for the past 16 years. My style of practice is interactive and relational. This means we will work together and build a relationship from which we can work through what you need help with. I tend to be transparent and will share my thoughts with you. This will be an active therapy experience where we will use our smarts and strengths collaboratively to bring about change. My post graduate training in couple and family therapy gives me a deep understanding of how to help individuals, couples and families struggling with relationship issues.
I believe that we are all best understood when space is made for all that impacts us- including our gender, class, race, sexual orientation, families of origin and how all these parts of us intersects with social context, history and the world around us. I specialize in couple and family therapy and also have extensive experience providing individual therapy
If you would like to see if we would be a good match to work together, the next step would be to set up a 10-15 minute call. Please feel free to call me or you reach out via email to schedule a time for us to talk by phone.

I love counseling – both giving and receiving. For over 40 years, I have helped adoptive families utilizing my law and counseling degrees.
The counseling aspect spans a wide range of populations, including tweens, seniors, singles, couples, and multiple family members.
I met my wife at graduate school while working on my Master’s in Social Work, and we have since adopted three children.
I’m a Clinical Social Worker with more than 32 years of experience helping children, adolescents, adults, and families work through anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, family conflict, school stress, and major life transitions. I also specialize in crisis intervention, parenting support, digital wellness, and social media-related concerns. My goal is to offer a safe, supportive space where healing and growth can begin.
I am a New York State licensed clinical social worker who specializes in cognitive behavioral therapy with extensive training in psychotherapy. I work with teens, adults, families and couples, treating issues including anxiety, depression, loss and addiction. In addition to a social work degree from New York University, I also trained at the Institute for Contemporary Psychotherapy in its Family and Couples Treatment therapy program.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). I received my undergraduate degree in Psychology at Adelphi University’s Derner Institute for Advanced Psychological Studies and my Master of Social Work degree at Adelphi University’s School of Social Work.
I specialize in treating trauma and stress related disorders (i.e., acute stress disorder, PTSD, adjustment disorders), anxiety, and depressive disorders.
