My Approach to Helping
Welcome. I am a psychologist serving the financial district and lower Manhattan. My approach to therapy is collaborative and compassionate to help further understand and address the concerns that led you to this site, likely in search of some relief from the way you are currently feeling. All of us employ coping strategies, but when anxiety, depression, relational or life stress begin to overwhelm these strategies, it is often time to seek some professional assistance.
Together, we will work to outline coping strategies to reduce current distress and facilitate growth. We can identify goals for therapy and monitor progress on a regular basis through feedback and evaluation. Once you are feeling some relief from the immediate concerns that brought you to therapy, it may be helpful to continue to explore and further understand relationship patterns you'd like to change.
In addition to my practice, I am formerly a supervising psychologist at UCLA and currently am an adjunct faculty member teaching graduate students. I have worked extensively with individuals navigating the complexities of career, identity, and relational concerns.
Finding the right therapist to work with is important - please view my homepage for more information or feel free to contact me with any questions about our initial meeting.
