I am a licensed clinical social worker who practices virtually in NY, NJ and CA. I have 30 years of experience and my own therapy experience, so I really understand that starting therapy can make you feel very vulnerable. I really enjoy being a therapist and I am trained in cutting edge and traditional therapies. I specialize in anxiety, job stress (corporate environments), OCD, children, relationship issues & highly sensitive children and adults, though I treat a wide range of issues.
I am very involved and communicative as a therapist. I don't sit quietly all session! You will feel my participation and support and I adjust my style to meet you where you are. Your trust in our relationship over time and your ability to express yourself authentically are good ingredients for a successful outcome. I welcome your feedback and honesty about what your needs are as we work together. The relationship we build is the most important foundation of your therapy.
My diverse training has given me many tools to help you. In therapy, you will learn ways to help you slow down which enables you to release stressful states that get trapped in the body and trigger us. We will work with the mind-body connection and practice ways to find states of calm, comfort, reflection, balance and grounding which will help all of your relationships and your symptoms. We will always go at a pace that is comfortable for you and your feedback is always welcome and important.
