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.
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.
I'm a Licensed Creative Arts Therapist, Registered Drama Therapist, and Ph.D. in Organizational Development. My personal and professional work in social and racial justice informs my commitment to addressing the impact of trauma among those who identify as caregivers, protectors and fighters.
I have a vast background in social work as an NYU graduate. Beginning with early intervention and ABA therapy all throughout Manhattan and growing into the Jewish Board of Child and Family Therapy learning CBT, family, group and couples therapy. Practicing for over 20 years with CBT and IFS modalities as I find them to be the most effective, compassionate and straightforward approach to getting to know the self with a kind lens. Our society wants us to be in resistance to ourselves and we get to take a look at how that impacts us together. There is nothing wrong with your feelings, it is how they were treated that was wrong.
I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in the State of New York. I earned a both my BA in Psychology and my MA in Mental Health Counseling at Adelphi University. I currently serve the community as a Director of Behavioral Health in a major health system. I have worked with a wide variety of populations across multiple settings including higher education, hospital and private practice. I have been fortunate in my career to serve many specialized populations including neurodivergence, severe and persistent acute mental illness, caregivers, geriatrics, and perinatal clients. I also enjoy working with couples. I do not believe in a one size fits all model. I believe that each individual is unique and use a collaborative approach to counseling to ensure my clients needs are met. I am humbled to be invited to be a part of your therapeutic journey and look forward to sharing in this process together!
I have been practicing as a Social Worker for over 38 years. I have a lot of experience in the areas of behavioral health services which includes a host of treatment focus areas and chemical dependency. I am energetic and enthusiastic about my work with clients. I am currently accepting new clients at this time. I like to incorporate in my work with clients self expression and self exploration. Outside of my work I love to engage in dance therapy, exercise for fitness, reading and sewing.
In addition to being a LMHC in the state of NY, I'm also just a human gal navigating life alongside 2 doodles and a cat; creating and interacting with nature plays an important role in my life, but before you think I'm just a calm collected artist haunting the woods mysteriously, I'm also known for sitting on a comfy chair for way too long, re-watching the same shows from the early 2000s, and collecting copious amounts of craft and art supplies that I swear I will use someday.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an ADHD Therapist in Yonkers
Finding ADHD therapists in Yonkers starts with understanding what kind of support fits your needs. Therapy can help with ADHD-related concerns like attention, organization, time management, emotional regulation, and impulse control. Some therapists focus on executive function skills, cognitive behavioral therapy for ADHD, or support for related concerns like anxiety and depression. Medication management is different from therapy and is usually provided by a psychiatrist or other qualified prescriber. Adult ADHD and pediatric ADHD can also call for different experience, so look for a therapist whose listed specialties match the age group and concerns you want to address.
Yonkers has local therapy options, and nearby access to the broader New York metro area can widen your search. At the same time, the right fit depends on more than location. Virtual therapy can make it easier to find ADHD support near you, especially if your schedule, commute, or local availability limits in-person care. As you compare therapists, look at appointment times, whether they offer a free phone consultation, and how they describe their approach. Reading bios can help you see whether a therapist has experience with ADHD and common related concerns, including anxiety, depression, school stress, or work stress.
Therapy in Yonkers can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before your first appointment. Headway helps you search for therapists who are accepting new patients, review detailed profiles, verify your insurance, and see estimated out-of-pocket costs upfront. From there, you can compare ADHD therapists in Yonkers, choose the format that works for you, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you're already taking psychiatric medication and considering switching providers, talk to your current prescriber before changing or stopping any medication — most psychiatric medications shouldn't be stopped abruptly. Anyone experiencing thoughts of self-harm or in acute crisis should call 988 or go to the nearest emergency department rather than wait for an outpatient appointment.
