I am a clinical psychologist and run a small group practice in NYC called City Lights Psychology (www.citylightspsychology.com). I was formerly a staff psychologist at The Motherhood Center of New York. I work primarily with women and their families during the perinatal period and couples across the lifespan. I work from a psychoanalytic framework, specifically object relations, and also have training in Emotionally Focused Therapy for Couples. My approach is integrative, warm, and direct.

I specialize in working with women struggling with anxiety and depression, self-esteem, and grief and loss. As a Certified Perinatal Mental Health specialist, I also provide care to women navigating pregnancy, fertility challenges, loss, and adjustment during the perinatal phase. Therapy with me is a compassionate, collaborative process in a safe, judgment-free space. Through an emotionally-focused framework, with an attachment-focused orientation and an emphasis on the experiential process, I offer steadfast support and a place to put down the heavy things my clients have been carrying. I weave in my training in CBT, DBT and mindfulness practices where useful to provide a robust therapeutic experience that meets clients where they are on their unique journey.
