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. After some additional years doing administrative work for the NYS Office of Mental Health (several facilities), I switched my focus from a public health perspective to independent practice, continuing my work individually with adults as well as with couples and families. 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.

I am a clinical social worker specializing in trauma treatment for young adults 18+ and adults in New York and New Jersey. I offer in-person and telehealth sessions informed by attachment and trauma theory that integrates EMDR and Internal Family Systems. With a PhD in clinical social work as well as evidence based clinical trainings, I target issues stemming from the traumatic experiences that inform or define personal growth, intimate relationships, life transitions, anxiety and depression.

Currently accepting new clients. I am trained in Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy (AEDP), which has roots in and resonances with many disciplines, including attachment theory, the neuroscience of feelings and body-focused approaches. It seeks to undo your aloneness and foster new and healing experiences through in-depth processing of difficult emotional and relational experiences. I am also certified in EMDR.
