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.

I am a Columbia University trained psychotherapist and have been practicing therapy for the past 16 years. My style of practice is interactive and relational. This means we will work together and build a relationship from which we can work through what you need help with. I tend to be transparent and will share my thoughts with you. This will be an active therapy experience where we will use our smarts and strengths collaboratively to bring about change. My post graduate training in couple and family therapy gives me a deep understanding of how to help individuals, couples and families struggling with relationship issues.
I believe that we are all best understood when space is made for all that impacts us- including our gender, class, race, sexual orientation, families of origin and how all these parts of us intersects with social context, history and the world around us. I specialize in couple and family therapy and also have extensive experience providing individual therapy
If you would like to see if we would be a good match to work together, the next step would be to set up a 10-15 minute call. Please feel free to call me or you reach out via email to schedule a time for us to talk by phone.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an OCD Therapist in Yonkers
Finding OCD therapists in Yonkers starts with looking for the right training, not just the right location. Obsessive-compulsive disorder can involve intrusive thoughts, compulsive behaviors, checking, contamination fears, harm-related obsessions, or relationship-related obsessions. Exposure and response prevention, often called ERP, is one therapy approach some clinicians use when supporting people with OCD, and not all therapists have training in it. As you compare therapists, look for bios that name OCD, ERP, cognitive behavioral therapy, or acceptance and commitment therapy as part of their listed experience.
Yonkers offers local therapy options, while nearby areas and virtual appointments can expand your search if you want more choice. Some people prefer an in-person office near home, work, transit, or other parts of Westchester County; others prefer the schedule flexibility of virtual sessions. When reviewing therapists, pay close attention to whether they specifically mention ERP training or describe structured OCD care. That can be more useful than a profile that lists OCD only as one of many familiar concerns. You can also compare appointment availability, session format, and whether a free phone consultation is offered before booking.
Therapy in Yonkers can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and see what you may pay before your first appointment. Headway helps you find therapists who are accepting new patients, review detailed bios, check estimated out-of-pocket costs, and book directly when you’re ready. This makes it easier to find an OCD therapist who matches your needs, accepts your plan, and offers care in a format that works for you.
