My Approach
I work from an integrative perspective, combining an insight-oriented approach with goal-focused interventions. I take into consideration your internal world as well as how this has interacted with the external systems we all live in. In doing so, the objective is to help you develop a stronger sense of self and bolster your abilities to adapt and thrive. I also strongly believe that the relationship between therapist and patient is key for one to be able to explore, reflect, and ultimately heal. As such, I prioritize in creating a safe, supportive space where we may work together to better understand your unique experiences.

Getting Started
The first step would be to schedule a free 15 minute phone consultation. To schedule, please fill out the contact form or call me at (646) 818-9510. During the consultation, I will ask you a few questions to get an idea of what you are hoping to address in treatment. You will also have an opportunity to ask me any questions you may have. If after the call, it sounds like we would be a good fit, we will schedule an initial session.
During the first few sessions, I will be focused on gathering information about your history, including past experiences and relationships. This will help me build a foundation by which I can best understand your current concerns.
Individual sessions are 45 minutes in length and the duration of treatment will depend on each person and their needs.
Locations
I am currently seeing patients via video sessions using a secure, HIPAA-compliant telehealth system only. Eventually, I will be offering in person appointments in both New York City and Connecticut. However, telehealth will always be an offered options to anyone who would like to continue in that format.
I also hold a license to provide therapy via telehealth only to residents of Florida, verifiable at http://www.flhealthsource.gov/telehealth.
