As an experienced psychotherapist, I believe that an empathic approach creates an environment, in which, trust and curiosity can flourished, facilitating the adjustment to an already difficult process. The relationship between psychotherapist and patient constitutes an important tool, in the understanding of patient's past and present behaviors.
In my practice I work with clients of all backgrounds and age groups; and I have a specialty in adolescence and young adulthood. I enjoy supporting clients as they navigate growing up and becoming adults in this complex world. My approach is grounded in Psychodynamic Theory and the belief that many of our problems are rooted in thinking patterns, behaviors, and emotional responses that we developed early in life. My work is eclectic and collaborative. I draw on many modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Trauma Informed Treatment, Family Systems Theory and Motivational Interviewing.
Most importantly, I see the therapeutic process as a collaborative endeavor between client and therapist. The client is the expert on themselves, and the therapist is a partner in their journey of self-exploration. We work together to change habits, behaviors, and thought patterns, that are causing distress, and getting in the way of the client’s goals.
I have a background in the creative arts, and enjoy supporting artists, writers, and actors, as they seek balance in their lives. Also, I have spent many years working in the New York City Schools with children, families, teachers, and administrators, to address individual students’ emotional and behavioral problems that interfere with school performance.
Hello and welcome! I work with individuals and couples experiencing relationship transitions. I work in-person on Tuesdays in Ridgewood and virtually Monday-Thursday, 10-6. I currently have mid-day in person and virtual availability.
I believe relationships-both with the self and with others- are worth working on. I have been a practicing social worker for over a decade and have focused on psychotherapy for the last five years. In addition to training in social work and psychotherapy, I have a Certificate in Couple Therapy from Akerman Institute and have completed over 60-hours of training in the Understanding Model of mediation. I have extensive training on modalities for treating anxiety, OCD, and depression.
