Psychotherapy

“Finding a therapist can be a daunting process. I believe it is important to feel at ease in order to do the work therapy entails. I provide a comfortable, down-to-earth environment that will allow you to develop insight, find more choices in your life, and to build self confidence.

I have advanced training in psychoanalysis and psychodynamic psychotherapy, however unlike classical analysis I do not act as a blank screen and have a contemporary approach. I provide feedback and believe in mutual collaboration between patient and therapist. I also believe it is important to modify my approach based on the needs of the individual.

In addition to my private practice, I have worked in a variety of agency settings and have experience with a range of issues (depression, anxiety, trauma, grief and loss, identity, relationships, life transition, chronic illness, stress, divorce/separation, retirement, addiction and anger). I also hold a Masters in Non-Profit Management.

For the past 6 years I have been working as a Program Director for the FDNY, providing counseling and therapeutic services to firefighters post-9/11. My experience with diverse groups of people has informed my belief that therapy should be tailored to the needs of the individual.

In January 2009 I will be initiating a psychotherapy group for women ages 25-40 years old. It will be held from 9:30-11:00 am on Saturday mornings. This group will assist you if you are feeling stuck in your life, if you find yourself engaging in the same destructive behavior/relationship patterns or if you simply want to better understand yourself.”
