I have extensive experience working with people of all ages in the creative fields, young adults lost at a crossroad in their life.
I am a New York state and New Jersey state licensed clinical psychologist. I received my doctorate in psychology from Long Island University-Post. I completed an APA accredited internship from Mt. Sinai Services-Elmhurst Hospital Center. I received postdoctoral training from New York University Counseling and Wellness Services. I specialize in working with adults with concerns regarding career, relationships, life transitions, identity, anxiety, eating disorder/body image, and grief/loss.
I am an experienced Mental Health Counselor with an international background in clinical psychology and research. I am deeply committed to provide help during difficult phases of a person's life journey. I specialize in working with adults navigating life transitions, anxiety, depression, substance abuse, identity crisis, and bereavement. I am also experienced in working with couples and the specific challenges they encounter in their relationship.
I’m a Licensed Creative Arts Therapist and drama therapist who works with women and young adults navigating anxiety, eating disorder recovery, substance use, and life transitions.
I have experience in inpatient rehab and use a harm reduction, nonjudgmental approach. My work combines talk therapy with creative techniques when helpful—though there’s no pressure to be “artistic.”
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and psychoanalyst in the Flatiron District of New York who specializes in anxiety, depression, life transitions, complex trauma, women's issues, and LGBTQIA+ concerns. I enjoy working with adults of all ages who seek to understand and overcome self-defeating patterns, access inner resources and strengths, and connect to a deeper sense of self.
I've worked successfully with race-and class-diverse, LGBT and straight clients from teens to seniors. Many are new to NYC or in other life transitions. Clients come with anxiety, identity issues, relationship or work problems, trouble managing anger...My style is warm yet analytical, and interactive. I encourage laughter! I find that people want to understand themselves, break free from self-damaging patterns, and live more fully--and joyfully.
I am a psychiatrist and psychotherapist with a professional background focusing on mood disorders, anxiety, and challenges in relationships. I attach importance to the ways issues of culture, race, trauma, family dynamics, and migration influence how we carry ourselves in the world and approach our experiences.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Mount Vernon, NY
Searching for therapists in Mount Vernon starts with finding someone whose training fits what you want to work on. People often look for therapy for anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, work stress, or life transitions. As you compare Mount Vernon therapists, look for specialties and approaches that match your needs, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, trauma-informed care, or family therapy. A therapist’s bio can also show how they structure sessions and what you can expect from their style.
In a smaller city like Mount Vernon, the right local fit may depend on more than office location. Virtual therapy can expand your options while still letting you choose a therapist licensed in New York. You may also want to compare appointment availability, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation before the first session. Reading profiles before booking can help you evaluate communication style, experience, and whether the therapist’s approach fits the kind of support you want.
Therapy in Mount Vernon can be a significant investment without insurance, and using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you search for a Mount Vernon therapist who takes your insurance, view estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and choose between virtual and in-person care. You can browse therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
