I am a License Mental Health Counselor in New York that works with marital counseling clients and those experiencing relationship issues and who are struggling with their sense of self confidence.

Hi, I'm Sheila, a psychotherapist providing services for over 15 years. I currently specialize in treating OCD and anxiety disorders for individuals of all ages. Common challenges my clients face involve rumination, intrusive thoughts and related behaviors that can present barriers to well-being. In addition to my area of specialization, I enjoy working with couples as well as people experiencing depression, grief, trauma and life transitions.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the states of New York and New Jersey with an extensive background in mental health as an inpatient psychiatric social worker and a therapist in private practice. These settings has afforded me the opportunity to work with adults across the life span as they face a multitude of challenges. In my private practice I work with adults navigating the stressors of every day life such as work, relationships, and transitional periods. In addition I work with adults seeking a greater sense of self, enhance coping skills, improve communications skills, and build confidence.

My education has been focused on studying perspectives on personal development and emotional well-being. I received my Bachelor’s of Science in Comparative Human Development from the University of Chicago and my Master’s degree from the Columbia School of Social Work. Before working in private practice, I provided therapeutic services in a range of settings, including community mental health centers, NYC public schools and group practices.

I have spent my life studying patterns of human behavior and seeing how I can use this knowledge to help others. I am intensely curious about people and their struggles and was well trained in my graduate studies at NYU to understand the person within all of the systems they are in; family, status, culture, race, gender, income, generational family history and more.

I have been an LCSW for over 15 years, and anxiety is where I do my deepest work..the racing thoughts, the physical tension, the constant "what if" that won't quiet down. I also work with clients navigating depression, major life changes, grief and divorce. But if anxiety is running the show in your life, that is exactly where I want to start.

As a clinical social worker, I believe in the connections between our environment and our relationships with ourselves and others. I have over a decade of experience working in the arts and non-profits, and believe in the inherent creative potential of all people.

Welcome. I know reaching out for support can feel vulnerable, and I believe therapy should be a space where you feel safe, seen, and understood. My goal is to provide a compassionate and nonjudgmental environment where you can openly explore your thoughts, emotions, relationships, and life experiences at your own pace.

I work with individuals who may be struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, relationship challenges, life transitions, self-esteem, or feeling emotionally overwhelmed. Many of my clients are people who have spent years caring for others while neglecting their own needs and are now ready to begin prioritizing their healing and personal growth.

My approach is integrative and personalized because I believe every person’s story and healing journey is unique. I incorporate supportive therapy, trauma-focused care, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness practices, and narrative therapy to help clients better understand themselves, develop healthier coping strategies, and move toward meaningful and lasting change.

Together, we will work to identify patterns that may be keeping you stuck, process painful experiences with care and intention, build emotional resilience, and reconnect with your strengths and sense of self. I believe healing happens not only through insight, but also through feeling empowered, supported, and genuinely accepted.

Whether you are navigating a difficult season of life or seeking deeper self-understanding and growth, I welcome the opportunity to walk alongside you in your journey toward healing and balance.
