My style as an individual and couples’ therapist is warm, empathic and related.  My approach is to help to alleviate the pain of my patients by not only addressing symptoms but by working together with them to understand the origins of their depression and anxiety and to work through the conflicts which lie at the center of their suffering.  By encouraging self-awareness and self-reflection my patients can make better choices — and take thoughtful action in their lives.

By exploring and resolving their conflicts and relationship trauma in the past and the present and by connecting feelings to thoughts, my patients can create a better future for themselves and their families. As a result, they are free to have richer and more satisfying relationships, achieve their personal and professional goals, and live up to their potential.

Depression and anxiety take root in childhood, which is why I believe in parent guidance and treating parents who are concerned about their children’s mental health and emotional well-being as early as possible. I see children’s symptoms as signs of family stress and believe in early intervention, parent guidance, and treatment of the entire family as a way to prevent early symptoms in children from developing into long-term mental disorders.

I see patients both at my office, conveniently located on the Upper West Side of Manhattan, as well as over the phone, by Zoom and Skype.
