About

Are you experiencing anxiety, depression, grief, illness, loneliness, self-loathing, or problems regarding a relationship or change in your life? In the safe and comfortable environment of my Upper West Side office, we can understand what is happening for you, and develop effective mechanisms for your overcoming these difficulties. I believe deeply in the process of psychotherapy and have seen positive changes in people of all ages whom I have worked with . While the idea of psychotherapy may seem daunting at the outset, I am committed to making the experience worthwhile and meaningful for you.
