Book a therapist or psychiatrist in New York covered by Aetna

Ever feel stuck asking, "I don't know why I can't do this, why is it so hard for me?" It’s a completely normal question, and here is the truth: it’s everyone, everywhere, and you are absolutely not alone! I bring an energetic, empowering, and action-oriented approach to therapy. I truly love seeing people thrive and witnessing that "lightbulb moment" where a client breaks through an obstacle and unlocks real, lasting change in their life. If you’re tired of feeling stuck and ready for that breakthrough, let's team up!

With over 20 years of experience in clinical care, education, and research, I provide thoughtful, evidence-based psychiatry support tailored to high performing adults seeking clarity, stability, and wellness. My goal is to provide you both empathic and evidence-based support that leads to sustaining improvement.

My therapeutic method is tailored to fit your temperament and individual experience. You may be facing a combination of personal, social, and institutional adversity. Discomfort may be unavoidable, but you are not alone; I can help you transform hardship or tragedy into resilience. My process is effective; it evolves as you do. If you experience negative feelings like inadequacy, grief, or shame, I can help you understand the origin of the discomfort and make changes toward ease. Sometimes, worry can be helpful; other times, anxiety and depression lie to us. Having worked in both economically-strained and prosperous communities, I have seen the impact of trauma and neglect on various people. I also understand being a white male can insulate me against the prejudice and discrimination commonly experienced by people of color, women, and the LGBTQ community; I trust my client’s experiences and take responsibility for my blind spots.

People say I'm easy to talk to. Here's a little bit about me. I received my graduate degree from NYU and have completed extensive post-graduate training in the treatment of mental health and addiction disorders. Why work with me? I'm a seasoned clinician who has supervised graduate-level Psychology and Mental Health Counseling students from Universities on Long Island and NYC. I'm passionate about the work we'll do together and am excited to join you on your journey.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker I focus on creating a supportive and thoughtful space where you can feel empowered to grow. I have 4 years of experience working with diverse populations and a wide variety of diagnoses. I earned my Master of Social Work Degree from NYU Silver School of Social Work. Most of my work focuses on supporting adults through various life challenges, including relationships, anxiety, depression, and executive functioning.

Anxiety and depression can make everyday life feel exhausting — and finding the right support shouldn't add to that. I'm a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner practicing via telehealth across New York State, and I genuinely love what I do. My style is collaborative: I'm not here to hand you a prescription and send you on your way. I want to understand your full picture — your history, your goals, what you've tried before — and build a plan that actually fits your life. Care works best when it feels like a partnership, and that's exactly what I aim for. There's no one-size-fits-all when it comes to mental health, and I'll never treat it that way. If you're ready to take the next step — or even just curious about what that might look like — I'd love to connect.

Do you ever feel like you’re stuck in a constant state of survival mode? Overwhelmed by stress, emotionally drained, or just going through the motions of life? Reaching out for help takes courage, and you don’t have to navigate this alone. Taking the first steps toward therapy can feel overwhelming, I know, because I’ve been there too. My goal is to help you navigate this process by providing a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where you feel safe, seen, and understood. I work primarily with young adults in their 20’s and 30’s who are navigating anxiety, trauma, family and relationship issues, stress, and life transitions. Many of my clients come to therapy seeking to gain a deeper understanding of themselves, their experiences, and the reasons behind their emotions.
