Great to meet you!

I am a pediatric and adult neuropsychologist and clinical psychologist in the New York area. I specialize in treating trauma, ADHD, anxiety, relationship issues and existential difficulties. I have a doctorate from St. John’s University, and I trained at Columbia and the Center for Applied Psychology during my internship year. I also completed a fellowship in Neuropsychology at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, and I currently live in Woodmere, NY, with my three children.

My approach to therapy

I am trained in CBT, REBT, Solution-Focused Therapy, Family Systems Therapy, Behavior Analysis, and Internal Family Systems. I find that the client's preferences and resistances are often the best guides to where the therapy should go in helping them reach their goals.

What you can expect from me

My goal in therapy is to help the client achieve their goals. They should feel over time that they are getting closer to their goal in measurable ways while at the same time feeling that they understand themselves better and are better equipped to manage themselves better in the world.
