Hello. I am a LCSW who has been practicing for 30 years and prides herself on maintaining a safe, non judgmental environment in which people are free to share their struggles. I specialize in numerous areas but at this time I am focusing on Bipolar disorder. I work closely with a gifted psychiatrist to support my work.

Trained in the tradition of psychodynamic psychotherapy, I spent many years initially treating patients with severe and persistent psychiatric disorders and eventually teaching and supervising in the residency and psychology internship programs at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine.

Although my primary orientation toward psychopathology and treatment continues to be psychodynamic, I occasionally integrate some cognitive behavioral tools into the psychotherapy; I was certified in Dialectical Behavior Therapy when the treatment was initiated at the facility in which I was an administrator.
