Mental health support in Nyack is now more accessible through Headway. Serving Upper Nyack, West Nyack, and surrounding areas, our providers offer therapy and medication management with sessions tailored to your schedule and covered by insurance plans.
I've worked successfully with race-and class-diverse, LGBT and straight clients from teens to seniors. Many are new to NYC or in other life transitions. Clients come with anxiety, identity issues, relationship or work problems, trouble managing anger...My style is warm yet analytical, and interactive. I encourage laughter! I find that people want to understand themselves, break free from self-damaging patterns, and live more fully--and joyfully.
I work with people who are stuck at certain crossroads in their life. Typically, the external problems seem to solve themselves once therapy reaches a certain point. This applies to work, relationships, life goals, and creative pursuits. My job is to help you transform mental or physical pain into something that is bearable and makes life worth living.
I work with a wide range of clients.
I welcome any questions you have. Feel free to give me a call or email with any questions you have about starting therapy.
As a clinical psychologist, I assist patients in reshaping negative thought and behavior patterns in a judgement free setting.
Clients often tell me they appreciate my calm, thoughtful, and non-judgmental presence. I work collaboratively and at a reflective pace, creating a space where you can explore emotions and creativity without pressure to perform or “get it right.” Music is always an invitation, not a requirement. My goal is to help you feel understood, supported, and more connected to yourself.
As a licensed psychologist, I help clients achieve their goals and overcome challenges through a collaborative and evidence-based approach. Using a culturally responsive cognitive behavior therapy framework, I create a safe space for self-exploration and making meaningful change. Working together, my clients have reported improved mood, relationships, and self-image. I have helped clients change unhelpful habits, adjust to life transitions, and reach their goals.
Great to meet you!

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Finding a therapist in Nyack starts with getting clear on what kind of support you're looking for. Providers in the area commonly work with anxiety, depression, trauma and PTSD, relationship challenges, and family dynamics. Some specialize in specific approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), or EMDR. Whether you're looking for individual therapy, couples counseling, or care for a child or teen, knowing your priorities can help you narrow your search.
Beyond specialty, consider practical factors like whether you prefer in-person sessions in Nyack or virtual visits from home, and whether a provider's availability fits your schedule. Reading a provider's bio can give you a sense of their style and approach before you commit. Many providers offer a free phone consultation so you can ask questions and see if it feels like a good fit.
Therapy in the Nyack area can be expensive out of pocket, but using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to bring costs down. 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 provider who matches your needs and your coverage.
