I am a multilingual licensed individual and couples psychotherapist with a private practice in New York City for two decades. I specialize in couples/marital counseling and anxiety disorders.

Through a psychodynamic psychotherapy approach, I strive to provide a warm and open environment that promotes curiosity and growth. Seeking therapy takes real courage. Relationships change, self-esteem wavers, bodies transform, unforeseen social and cultural events occur that place us in uncharted waters, and life turns inexplicably uncertain. Whatever the reason, therapy is a unique opportunity to examine internal and relational conflicts, tease out unhelpful thoughts and deepen your understanding of yourself in ways that foster empowerment, vitality, and creativity.

I am a licensed clinical psychotherapist (LCSW) with extensive experience working with children, adolescents, and adults coping with a wide variety of issues, including anxiety, depression, challenging life circumstances, transitions, relationship issues, and trauma.

Trained at the Ackerman Institute for the Family, I honor the diverse ways relationships and families take shape. I also work with ambitious, career-oriented individuals seeking greater fulfillment in their relationships, emotional lives, and professional paths.
