I maintain a general private practice with a specialty in the treatment of trauma with offices in the Flatiron District of Manhattan and in Montclair, New Jersey. Whether you have experienced a major traumatic event, suffer from from acute or chronic anxiety and/or depression or whether you are feeling frustrated or stuck in repetitive patterns in your work or personal life, effective psychotherapy can help bring about empowerment, growth, and positive, lasting change. I am an active participant in each treatment and will work relationally with you to address your concerns. I also specialize in the use of more body-based modalities such as EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and SE (Somatic Experiencing). I have found, and current research is validating, how essential a healthy mind/body connection is to facilitating any real and lasting shifts from old habituated patterns to new, more adaptive ones, and I have found these modalities particularly effective in this regard.

You have found an empathic and supportive therapist. I work with adults and adolescents who have a variety of mental health issues such as: depression, anxiety, and various forms of traumatic issues. I do individual counseling and couple/family counseling. I apply the following clinical approaches: Cognitive Behavioral techniques, Motivational Interviewing, problem solving and REBT to help clints deal with thier issues. I also work with individuals who have chronic medical issues such as HIV/AIDS, diabetes, and cancer to help them deal effectively and cope with their overwhemeling medical condition(s). I help individuals who are feeling loss and hopeless with life learn how to begin a new journey to a new you.

As your therapist, first and foremost I will respect the courage of your decision to seek therapy and create a foundation of safety, acceptance, and collaboration. I strongly believe that symptom reduction (e.g., anxiety, panic, constant worrying, depression, high stress levels, complex PTSD), and an exploration of the root causes of your most distressing problems are both vital aspects of a helpful therapeutic experience. I foster a therapeutic relationship that honors my clients’ conscious minds as well as feelings, symptoms, and behaviors that they may find confusing and painful, but may be clues to presenting problems. I also consider my clients' current life situations holistically, collaborating with them to explore physical, nutritional, general life style, social support, and self-regulation issues to find areas of resilience as well as those that could be strengthened. Presently, I work with late teens and adults of all ages. I work with clients who struggle with symptoms which may be the aftermath of loss, abuse or other difficult experiences, or are simply perplexed with why they repeat distressing patterns which cause them pain. My clients may enter therapy to explore "why they have such difficulty regulating their emotions", or, "why they continue to pursue relationships that are ultimately painful", or, "why it's so hard to feel anything"; they may also enter therapy to receive assistance with specific issues such as life transitions, relationship difficulties, and work or academic problems. I also specialize in the impact of past and current interpersonal trauma or loss on parenting capacities, and assist my clients when these experiences interfere with being loving and supportive parents in the present. My work blends relational psychotherapeutic approaches, trauma-focused assessment and treatment, and psychoeducation for both clients and their families where appropriate. My trauma studies, which included EMDRIA-approved advanced EMDR training, as well as principles of Internal Family Systems and Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, have solidified my longstanding belief that therapy must often go beyond talk and attend to messages from our physical selves that may provide clues to where we are most "stuck". While I have been trained in several modalities and my approach is eclectic, I will meet you where you are presently to address the problems that are most distressing to you.

Having support by a therapist helps tremendously in reaching your therapy goals. Goals are met by the motivation each individual client has.

Finding the right therapist for you, or your child, is important. As a drama therapist and licensed creative arts therapist, I believe creative process is fundamental to development and well-being. Through verbal sessions, or combined with creative arts and drama therapy techniques, I provide a safe space to explore thoughts and feelings, working toward resolution at your own pace. My approach is particularly effective with children and adolescents. Incorporating play and creative arts, I provide therapy that allows children to overcome personal issues in a safe, age-appropriate form, increasing their sense of play and coping skills for life conflicts.

Life can present complication, conflict and stress. At times, this makes it challenging to trust oneself, others, or the world. Natural reactions, such as sadness, anxiety, or anger, shaped by our present and past experiences, can become overwhelming and lead to feeling stuck in a struggle or an unhelpful pattern. With respect for the unique experiences that have led to your decision to enter psychotherapy, we will address the issues important to you, while helping you move toward the aspects of life and relationships you find most meaningful.

I work with a wide array of individuals and couples. My clients range in age from early 20's to 90's and come from all walks of life. Many seek help for anxiety, trauma, relationship or work related issues. Some suffer from complicated reactions to grief or bereavement. I enjoy helping people to access their strengths and to come to a more balanced and peaceful place in their lives. In recent years I have developed an interest in working with patients who have suffered neurological illnesses, such as focal brain lesions resulting in strokes and subsequent conditions such as sphasia.

You are struggling with the relationships in your life. Perhaps your primary relationship leaves you unfulfilled, disappointed or you find it is full of conflict. Maybe the same feelings of hurt and sadness keep surfacing, arguments are repetitive or you look across the table and wonder why you are together at all. Or, you are out there looking for the right person to share your life with, yet find yourself attracting the wrong people again and again. Worse, you avoid the dating scene altogether, giving up. Maybe you recently suffered a breakup, divorce. These same feelings and conflicts follow you into the workplace, as you miss that promotion or the best projects go to your colleagues. You're business isn't growing the way you expected. Your difficulty connecting is making it harder to network, you're not feeling secure in your environment. You are tired of these issues resurfacing and you are ready to take action. You are looking for someone who will help you untangle the knots, identify the patterns and change the behavior. Contact me with questions or schedule a free 30-minute consultation. Credit cards accepted for full fee.

What is your soul trying to tell you? The person you were a year ago, five years ago, ten years ago, is still inside of you. Each of these selves has a voice, an opinion, and as a result there is a lot of inner noise, which can drown out the voice of your soul, the divine spark within. Subscribing to the spiritual model, I view psychotherapy as a spiritual process. My role is to help you hear the voice of your soul so you can move from where you are to where you want to go. I incorporate insights and techniques from various spiritual traditions as well as from Transpersonal Psychology, Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Twelve-Step Recovery, and Spiritual Self-Schema Therapy (SSST), in particular. The primary goal of SSST is to strengthen your spiritual self so healthier scripts (behaviors) can emerge in your life. As a psychotherapist, who is also an intuitive and a rabbi, I am fluent in spirituality, and can help you to create a spiritual practice to enhance your psychotherapy.

If you are going through some hard times, whether it is related to problems at work or in your relationships, or just some ongoing crisis, you might feel as if there is no way out and nothing will ever change for the better. In my work with clients I help them to find hope and new ways how to cope with their problems. I use insight-oriented treatment to help my clients get a better understanding of their difficulties and find solutions that work in the long run.

I took a non-traditional path to become a psychotherapist. I've worked in the arts, retail, non-profits, publishing, investment banks, as well as other industries. Because of my varied past, I bring insight and perspective to the treatment room. We work from your needs as the client. Though I listen bringing my training to the work, each client is unique and finds her or his own path to working through the challenges she or he faces. I work with clients to create more choices, to feel less trapped by the circumstances that may block her or him from achieving the life he or she would like to live.

As a therapist, my priority is to customize treatments for the individual and not force clients to conform to predetermined methods. I provide individual, couples, and group therapy, and if appropriate, can offer a combination of these modalities. Above all, I value the creativity and growth potential of every human being. I believe that change is possible no matter how entrenched one may be in a given situation. I accept Aetna and Medicare. I provide invoices to submit for out-of-network benefits with other insurance companies. As I am aware of the prohibitive costs related to health care, I offer a sliding fee scale for those who cannot afford to pay in full. My office is located on the upper east side of Manhattan.

I am a warm, engaging Clinical Psychologist. My orientation is cognitively-based, so therapy sessions are conversational, pragmatic, and focused primarily on the here-and-now. We work on setting therapeutic goals and collaborate on methods to attain them. In addition to my practice, I am active on the faculty at Weill-Cornell Medical College/New York Presbyterian Hospital. Anxiety is the body’s “hard-wired” false alarm. Defusing these alarms by facing dreaded fears is the central ingredient in overcoming shyness, panic attacks, or phobias. The art of treatment is knowing exactly how to fit the plan to the individual, and what procedures will best bring this about. In established relationships, people come to take each other for granted, which is the root of most other issues. The emphasis is on focusing upon what is or has been wonderful about the relationship, and acting on these strengths. How often are compliments, favors or gifts exchanged? This makes even significant conflict far easier to resolve! Activating oneself, self-care, exercise, taking pleasure and rediscovering a sense of accomplishment in the "little things" is a first and necessary step toward improvement. Surprisingly, progress becomes smoother once the inertia is overcome. Diets don't work. Individualized programs with a minimum of restriction and deprivation are motivating. Healthy foods, eaten frequently, and a positive sense of self go a long way. Moreover, bulimia is treatable, through carefully tailored food choices, mood management, and learning to tolerate a sense of being overwhelmingly full.

Repose is a boutique therapy practice offering first-class, comprehensive, and holistic wellness to individuals, couples, and groups.

Our Manhattan studio is a sanctuary within the city where clients can find a sense of calm and begin to regulate their emotions as they safely explore their issues, concerns, and goals.

I work with a wide array of individuals and couples. My clients range in age from early 20's to 90's and come from all walks of life. Many seek help for anxiety, trauma, relationship or work related issues. Some suffer from complicated reactions to grief or bereavement. I enjoy helping people to access their strengths and to come to a more balanced and peaceful place in their lives. In recent years I have developed an interest in working with patients who have suffered neurological illnesses, such as focal brain lesions resulting in strokes and subsequent conditions such as sphasia.

Imagine having the tools to explain clearly to your partner how you feel about something he/she said or didn't say… Imagine being able to speak to your children in a way that conveys how much you love them, but also firmly establishes limits and boundaries… Imagine the relief in being able to acknowledge, both to yourself and to another person in a safe, confidential therapeutic setting, feelings of hatred and rage toward someone in your life... Imagine being able to clearly and confidently state, "I want my future in 10 years to look like…." and having a mapped out plan to achieve it... We all have struggles. It takes courage to decide to take ourselves off "auto-pilot" and to confront and work through our problems. It takes courage to decide we are ready to look at ourselves, at our patterns of interacting in relationships and in decision-making. By deciding to look into therapy, you have taken the very difficult first step in this process…. I am a licensed psychologist practicing in Manhattan and in Great Neck, Long Island for 10+ years.
