Psychoanalyst Psychotherapist Consultation/Supervision
Truth… Stronger… Growth… Transformation… Self-Reliance… Love.
The fact that you are here tells me something important: you are willing to look inward. You want to understand your truth, become stronger, and earn the ability to live with greater self-reliance. That alone is meaningful. Taking this step—seeking support, asking questions, considering change—is often the beginning of a deeper personal journey. Congratulations. You are already moving forward.
Psychotherapy offers a safe, thoughtful space to explore your experiences honestly and at your own pace. Together, we work to understand patterns shaped by past relationships, trauma, loss, or life transitions—without judgment or pressure to “fix” yourself. Strength develops through awareness, compassion, and learning how to stay present with your emotions rather than avoiding them.
Transformation does not mean becoming someone else. It means reconnecting with who you are, with greater clarity and confidence. As insight deepens, self-reliance grows. Over time, this inner steadiness allows for healthier boundaries, more authentic relationships, and a renewed capacity for love—both for yourself and others.
I have been in the helping profession since 1987. My objective has always been to help people create meaningful, positive change in their lives. I provide a relaxed, respectful atmosphere and use contemporary clinical concepts, working collaboratively with each individual I see. I encourage clients to identify and build upon their existing strengths, supporting personal growth and lasting transformation that leads to greater satisfaction, connection, and emotional well-being.
I support individuals with:
- Life transitions, aging, and career stress
- Grief, caregiver burnout, and trauma
- Anxiety, depression, mood and stress-related concerns
- Performance and work-related pressure
- Relationship challenges
- Spiritual, cultural, and identity-related issues
- Any experience affecting emotional well-being
Education, My Approach, and How Therapy Helps
Education & Credentials
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW-R) and Doctor of Social Work Candidate (DSW-C) at Yeshiva University’s Wurzweiler School of Social Work. I hold a Master of Social Work (MSW) from Fordham University and a Master of Public Administration (MPA) from Baruch College.
I am SIFI-certified and provide supervision to graduate social work students and Licensed Social Workers completing their clinical hours. I am also psychoanalytically trained, with advanced training through the National Institute for Psychoanalysis, the Postgraduate Psychoanalytic Society & Institute, and certification from the Manhattan Institute for Psychoanalysis.
Approach
I use an integrative, evidence-based approach grounded in psychodynamic psychotherapy, trauma-informed care, and experiential methods. I also integrate aspects of EMDR, Psychodrama, and mind-body techniques such as mindfulness, breathwork, and somatic awareness when clinically appropriate.
How Therapy Can Help
Psychotherapy supports insight, emotional regulation, and lasting change. Treatment is collaborative and tailored to each individual, whether addressing current stressors, longstanding patterns, or personal growth. Therapy is appropriate both during times of distress and when seeking deeper self-understanding and improved quality of life.
