About my practice

 

I am a clinical psychologist, with a Ph.D. from Columbia University. I am licensed in

New York and New Jersey.

​

I am devoted to helping my clients find new ways of understanding and adapting to their current challenges.

​​

I have four decades of experience as a psychotherapist. During the first phase of my career, I worked in six outpatient clinics and two inpatient hospitals. My clients were adults, adolescents and children from a broad range of social, cultural, and economic situations. Since 2008, my focus has been on providing individual psychotherapy for adults.

​​​

I view providing psychotherapy as a profound responsibility. My goal is to provide clients with caring, thoughtful and effective help.

My approach to therapy

As a therapist, I am interactive. I strive to provide a balance between helping clients

to discover their own perceptions and preferences and providing my own input.

 

I begin my work with clients by developing a thorough understanding of each

person's unique situation and social context. In this initial phase of treatment,

I conduct a thorough review of each client's unique history with regard to

interpersonal, familial, cultural, career, and economic factors.

​​

The primary focus then shifts to consideration of each client's current situation.

The goal here is to understand and develop new  ways to think

about and adapt to current challenges.

 

​​​​My current therapeutic approach is eclectic, integrating both

psychodynamic and cognitive theories.
