If you identify as gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, queer, non-binary or questioning, this is the practice for your needs. I am a psychologist who helps you work through thoughts and feelings that are not working for you and develop an action plan to create a life beyond your wildest dreams. I use my skills to help clients feel better so they can choose to make significant changes in their lives. My goals are to remove the obstacles to your accessing your internal power so that you can rewrite your stories, find your voice and live authentically.
I am trained as a generalist, I specialize in treating mood disturbances, substance abuse and addiction, and LGBT counseling for adults and individuals only. I perform fully bilingual neuropsychological, psychoeducational, and psychological testing/evaluation on adolescents and adults. Evaluations for Gastric Bypass Surgery are also available.
I am able to perform psychotherapy, evaluation and testing in English and Spanish. Services are provided in Brooklyn Heights. Testing and evaluation services are provided ages 7 and up.
