I'm a therapist trained in Psychoanalysis and Creative Arts Therapies with twenty years years of experience.
I have experience working with depression, anxiety, addiction, relationship issues, sexual difficulties, trauma, loss, end of life issues, and coping with medical illness. My practice is diverse in terms of culture, race, and sexual orientation. I offer online telehealth in NY and CT. Please reach out with any further questions or to make an appointment.
I believe that therapy can be an essential tool used to maintain a well-balanced, healthy, and fulfilling life. As a therapist, I find it important to create a safe and friendly environment. I strive to always be in tune with what you need and assist you in exploring whatever difficulty you may be experiencing.
I’m a licensed psychologist with training and clinical experience across inpatient, outpatient, partial hospitalization, and private practice settings. I completed my PsyD at Hofstra University and have worked in hospital-based systems, as well as community and school-based settings.
I work with adults and adolescents facing a range of concerns, including depression, anxiety, trauma-related difficulties, personality-related patterns, psychosis-spectrum conditions, and life transitions. I also have experience supporting individuals navigating identity development, relationship challenges, and long-standing patterns of emotional distress that feel difficult to change.
Across settings, I have found that people often come to therapy not just because of symptoms, but because they want to feel more understood, more grounded, and more connected to themselves and others.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Astoria
Finding the right therapist in Astoria starts with getting clear on what kind of support you're looking for. Therapists and counselors in Queens specialize in a wide range of concerns — from anxiety, depression, and trauma to relationship challenges, life transitions, and stress. Some providers focus on specific approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) or Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), while others take a more integrative approach. Knowing what matters most to you can help you narrow your search.
Practical factors matter, too. Consider whether you'd prefer in-person sessions in Astoria or virtual appointments, what days and times work with your schedule, and whether a provider's background or communication style feels like a good match. Reading a provider's bio before booking can give you a sense of how they work and what to expect.
Therapy in New York City can be expensive, but using your in-network insurance benefits is one of the most reliable ways to reduce what you pay out of pocket. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs before you book, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a therapist in Astoria who fits both your clinical needs and your budget.
