I am a nurse midwife and psychiatric nurse practitioner providing individual and group psychotherapy and medication management for preconception, pregnancy and postpartum, with specialization in loss and bereavement. I am the director of Brooklyn Parent Support, a group practice with eight psychiatric NPs, and two social workers.

I work with clients experiencing anxiety issues in all its forms including depression, perfectionism, avoidance, eating disorders, obsessive/compulsive behaviors and self esteem issues. My approach to therapy is simple: a relationship built on trust and value can change your life. I have worked with clients for nearly 10 years to build these kinds of relationships, inside and outside of the room. Using this relationship I help clients manage difficult and big emotions, and help navigate new or sudden changes as they arise.

I utilize a combination of psychodynamic and CBT approaches, specializing in depression, anxiety, relationship issues, self-esteem, and self-perception challenges, transitions associated with significant milestones, and navigating pre/postpartum and all stages of child rearing.

I am a child, adolescent, and adult psychiatrist and psychoanalyst, practicing on the UES in Manhattan, offering individual assessments, second opinions, as well as ongoing treatment. The focus of my practice are children, adolescents, and young adults, in particular (but not exclusively) girls, and young women. Every consultation starts with a thorough evaluation process to define the nature of the issues, prior to making recommendations for treatment.
I evaluate and treat a wide range of conditions, examples are anxiety disorders, mood disorders (depression and bipolar disorder), adjustment reactions, attention deficit / hyperactivity disorder, developmental disorders, and post-traumatic conditions. I recently published a co-authored treatment manual for anxiety disorders in youth: "Child and Adolescent Anxiety Psychodynamic Psychotherapy, A Treatment Manual"(https://global.oup.com/academic/product/child-and-adolescent-anxiety-psychodynamic-psychotherapy-9780190877712?q=Preter&lang=en&cc=us).
