My eclectic therapeutic approach draws from my background as a social worker as well as my training in relational psychoanalysis, psychodynamic psychotherapy, and family/marital therapy. While thinking about the person and their environment I focus on the present and revisit the past in order to better understand how it affects one’s current life.

I’ve been in private practice since 2004, working with adults individually, in couples, and in groups. My style is warm, empathic, and collaborative. I strive to create a non-judgmental space where you can be yourself and share freely. You’ll find me listening intently, asking questions, but also allowing for moments of quiet reflection. My approach is informed by my training in psychoanalysis as well as cognitive behavioral therapies, and I believe that a good therapeutic fit, where you feel truly seen and heard, can be transformative.

As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, Child Life Specialist, and Grief Counselor, I have had the privilege of supporting countless children and families through some of their most challenging moments.

I earned my PhD in clinical psychology from Yale University. I am a tenured Associate Professor at the NYU School of Medicine with a courtesy appointment in the Marketing Department at the NYU Stern School of Business. My clinical expertise has been focused on anxiety, stress, depression, and eating disorders among youth and adults.

I have extensive experience working with people with different life challenges, diagnoses, and cultures in both inpatient settings and private practice. My first career was as an artist, and that helped me immensely in developing an empathic and thoughtful perspective in my clinical work, whether art making is utilized by the client during sessions or not. I look forward to hearing from you!
