I recognize the impact of stress and mental health on daily life. It can be a struggle to manage everything at once. I utilize different modalities such as CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy), ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy), Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT), and more to instill confidence towards tackling any stressors that arise. I would love to provide you with tools and emotional support on your journey towards improved mental wellbeing!

I am a New York State-licensed Psychologist and a Certified Interpersonal Psychoanalyst. During more than 20 years of counseling, I have developed a unique blend of Interpersonal psychoanalytic, cognitive-behavioral and mind-body awareness promoting techniques to help patients achieve creative, professional and relational goals, and reduce anxiety and depression. All of us, through adapting to childhood experience, develop limiting fears and blind spots. I can help you to identify blocks to happiness, intimacy and serenity, and to develop new, more satisfying behaviors.

Therapy is a desired journey for self-discovery at any point in our lives, and an opportunity to access our own inner resources for self-empowerment. In my practice, I integrate Western psychotherapy interventions with Eastern methods of healing. For 25 years, my cross-cultural work and clinical experience have fostered a global perspective on mental health with deep empathy and nonjudgement. I practice psychodynamic psychotherapy, clinical hypnotherapy, EMDR therapy, integrative somatic therapy, Satvavajaya Chikitsa (Ayurvedic), & Hakomi. My focus is trauma, anxiety, depression, grief, & other crises. I also offer life coaching.

As a depth-oriented therapist and life coach, I offer a safe, emotionally warm, non-judgmental therapeutic space for individuals and couples to examine behavioral patterns, explore and develop strategies for issues of anxiety, depression, confidence, shame, self-worth, self-esteem, grief, life transitions, and dating. I provide a safe and warm space for men, LGBTQ, multicultural, and diasporic identities to express and process their issues and concerns. We will collaborate and explore mindful ways to remove potential barriers to the marital or professional relationship, career, or academic progress you can achieve.
