ABOUT

Hello! I'm a New York City-based psychotherapist serving clients in New York and Connecticut, in-person and virtually. I am trained as a licensed clinical social worker and certified in alcohol, drug, and gambling addiction counseling. 

​

I practice depth-oriented psychodynamic psychotherapy with adults who want to understand why they keep running into the same patterns in relationships, work, or how they treat themselves, and to change them at the source rather than manage them. I also work with couples and families, often when one member is struggling with addiction or other behavioral health issues.
