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, and enjoy my work. I view providing psychotherapy as a profound responsibility.
My primary goal is to help my clients find new ways to understand and to adapt to their current challenges, in the context of a supportive, thoughtful, and ethical therapeutic interaction.
​​
I have four decades of experience as a psychotherapist. I have worked in six outpatient clinics and two inpatient settings, serving 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.
​​
As a therapist, I am interactive. I strive to provide a balance between providing my own conceptualizations and helping clients to discover their own perceptions, priorities, and preferences.

My approach to therapy
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.
