I am a licensed clinical psychologist with offices in Manhattan, NY, working with relationships, couples, and individuals for over 15 years. I offer in-person intensives in NYC and virtual ongoing weekly treatment. Additionally, I am a registered telehealth provider in Florida.
I earned my Doctoral Degree (Ph.D.) in Clinical Psychology at Fairleigh Dickinson University, NJ, and my Master’s Degree (Ed.M.) in Counseling Psychology from Columbia University, NY. I am trained in several cutting-edge approaches. I received advanced training in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) and was trained directly by Dr. Linehan, a founder of this model. I completed my post-graduate training at Derner School of Psychology, Adelphi University, NY, receiving my Certificate in Psychoanalytic Therapy and advanced postgraduate training in couples therapy.
I am an advanced-level EFT (Emotion Focused Therapy) and Gottman-trained (Level 3) couples therapist. I’m also a Certified Discernment Counselor trained by the Doherty Relationship Institute to treat “mixed agenda” couples where one or both partners may be considering divorce.
I am AANE (Association for Autism and Neurodiversity) trained and certified neurodiverse couples therapist.
But equally importantly, I am a fellow human.
As Carl Rogers wisely said:
“Before every session, I take a moment to remember my humanity. There is no experience that this man has that I cannot share with him, no fear I cannot understand, no suffering that I cannot care about because I too am human. No matter how deep his wound, he does not need to be ashamed in front of me. I too am vulnerable. And because of this, I am enough. Whatever his story, he no longer needs to be alone with it. This is what will allow his healing to begin.”

If your relationship is struggling, think about having a 1, 2, or 3-day-long in-person private EFT couples intensive retreat.
Premarital Couples Therapy is offered in weekly sessions or through 1, 2, or 3-day-long in-person intensive retreat.
Is your marriage on the brink? Through this empirically studied brief approach (1-7 sessions) we will explore three separate paths — keeping things as they are, pursuing separation, or committing to couples therapy.
While you cannot drag your partner into the therapy room or force them to change, you can get professional help to understand the situation and work towards the outcome you desire.
