I am a reproductive psychiatrist specializing in women’s mental health. I work with women who face emotional and psychiatric difficulties throughout the female lifecycle. Areas of interest include treatment of psychiatric disorders during pregnancy and the postpartum period, PMDD, mood issues associated with the perimenopause, and emotional issues related to infertility treatment. I have a private practice with offices in Mount Kisco NY and Manhattan NY.

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.
