I am a licensed clinical psychologist who specializes in individual and couples therapy. I have over twenty years of experience working with a wide variety of clinical problems.

Welcome!
Mental well-being is a top priority because it is the key that opens the door to a happy, healthy, and stable life. Life can be full of unpredictable circumstances and events that leave us feeling overwhelmed, frustrated, stressed, anxious, or depressed. Experiencing one, or all, of these starts to negatively impact critical areas such as sleep, work, self-motivation, personal relationships, or lead us to start engage in unhealthy outlets. It also makes us feel all alone and emotionally trapped. Reaching out for help can initially feel uneasy and it is a difficult task, but be proud of yourself that you are taking that first step! I have over 20 years of clinical experience working with clients aged 13 to 75 with a main focus on working for you, your needs, and how to achieve your goals to live a happy, healthy, and stable life. Specialty areas include anxiety disorders, depression, mood disorders, Acute and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, relationships, couples/marital counseling, sexual issues, employees of law enforcement agencies, and forensic based testing.
I'm a therapist trained in Psychoanalysis and Creative Arts Therapies with twenty years years of experience.

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.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Hempstead
Finding the right therapist in Hempstead starts with getting clear on what you need support with. Whether you're looking for help with anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, or a life transition, choosing a licensed provider who has experience with your specific situation can make a meaningful difference. Common provider types include licensed mental health counselors (LMHCs), licensed clinical social workers (LCSWs), psychologists, and psychiatrists — each with different training and areas of focus.
Hempstead and the surrounding Nassau County area have a large number of practicing mental health providers, which can make narrowing your options feel like a project in itself. Consider what matters most to you beyond credentials — things like whether you prefer in-person or virtual sessions, a provider's communication style, and whether their availability fits your schedule. Reading a provider's bio before booking can help you get a sense of their approach and decide if they might be a good match.
Therapy on Long Island can be expensive without insurance. Using in-network benefits is one of the most reliable ways to reduce what you pay out of pocket, and many patients pay as low as $0 per session depending on their plan. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans. You can enter your insurance details on Headway to see estimated session costs upfront before you book.
