I'm a Licensed Clinical Psychologist in private practice, where I work with children, adults, and families to navigate life’s most meaningful (and challenging) moments. Whether you're facing a transition, parenting stress, emotional overwhelm, or relationship struggles, I provide a warm, collaborative space to understand what’s happening beneath the surface and begin the process of change. I offer both in-person sessions in Westchester and virtual therapy across New York State.
It's very difficult to be in stressful situations that can cause lots of anxiety and self-doubt. Perhaps you're looking for something more than advice from family and friends. If you're looking for a warm and inviting counseling atmosphere, I am eager to work with you to develop effective coping skills and a greater self-awareness to reach your full potential. Together, you and I can work to set goals that are appropriate and attainable for you, at your pace. For therapy to be effective for you, I work hard to build genuine and long lasting trust.
I have experience working with clients who have suffered from anxiety, depression, and marital issues. Additionally, I believe that cultural factors are critical to the way we navigate through life. I work hard to address cultural matters, to understand how these may impact our perception of the world.
Call me for a free consultation where we can discuss your needs and goals. For your convenience, I offer online counseling. También, ofrezco servicios en español. Llamame para discutir tus metas.
I’m a formerly harsh self-critic and PhD psychologist with 30+ years of experience. I blend Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindful Self-Compassion. If you struggle with depression, anxiety, low self-esteem or relationship problems, I’m here to help.
Through therapy, you'll learn to stop judging yourself so harshly, let go of guilt, shame and blame, and treat yourself with the same kindness you show others. I help you believe in yourself and take action, even when you’re feeling anxious.

If you are experiencing barriers that are keeping you from having a fulfilling life, I urge you to seek psychotherapy. I am experienced in crisis counseling, individual therapy, substance abuse and group work. I have training in PTSD, Internal Family Systems (IFS) and Mindful Self Compassion.

It can be hard to recognize when you need to turn to someone else for help. Sometimes having a trusted person outside your family & friends can offer clarity and help during difficult situations. I work with my clients to identify what is making them feel "stuck" or overwhelmed and put them back on the path of feeling empowered, grounded and hopeful. By exploring your thoughts & feelings, we will be able to move you forward and help you to find the support you need and find happiness in the moment.

I have worked with adults, adolescents and children treating issues of adjustment, self-doubt, mood swings, trauma and anxiety attacks. When you approach the therapeutic process with curiosity, you can grow, heal, and thrive.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an Anxiety Therapist in Scarsdale, NY
Searching for therapists in Scarsdale starts with finding someone whose experience matches what you want support with. People often look for therapy for anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, work stress, or major life transitions. As you compare therapists, review the specialties, approaches, and populations listed in their profiles. A therapist’s bio can help you understand whether they use approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care, and whether their style matches what you are looking for.
In a smaller local market like Scarsdale, nearby in-person options may be more limited than they are across broader Westchester County. Virtual therapy can expand your search while keeping care based in New York. You may also want to compare therapists in nearby areas like Edgemont, Hartsdale, White Plains, and other Westchester communities. Beyond specialty, consider appointment times, whether a therapist is accepting new clients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading profiles before booking can help you see how each therapist describes their session style, communication approach, and experience.
Therapy in Scarsdale can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make ongoing care more affordable. Nationally, Headway partners with many insurance plans, and you can verify your benefits and see an estimated out-of-pocket cost before you book. You can browse therapists in Scarsdale and across Westchester, review bios, compare availability, and book directly when you are ready.
