Hi! I am a New York State Licensed Clinical Psychologist. I received my PsyD from Nova Southeastern University in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida. I've been practicing for almost 30 years and I always have, and still do, love this work. I feel I can be most helpful with the following mental health challenges: healing from childhood trauma(s), LGBTQIA+ issues, depression, anxiety, relationship struggles, sexual assault, identity issues, and grief.

I have 8 years of nursing experience working with children as young as 6 years and older across inpatient and outpatient settings. Depression, Anxiety, ADHD, ODD, bipolar and psychotic disorders are some of the areas I have expertise in.

I graduated from Hofstra University Nurse Practitioner Program and was recognized for The Academic Excellence Award for outstanding clinical and academic performance.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I have focused the majority of my career on youth and young adults. I love working with young people as they navigate the challenges of personality development, family relationships, and exploring their place in the world beyond the family.

As a social worker in a lively high school and a parent of two young adults, I am very comfortable building rapport with the full gamut of adolescent personalities.

I am very excited to support clients in all developmental life stages as they work through clinical and non-clinical issues. These include depression, anxiety, trauma, divorce, grief and loss, life and career transitions, relationships, parenting, family dynamics, and aging.
