As a licensed therapist in New York with extensive experience, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating complex emotional landscapes. My practice focuses on helping clients address challenges like depression, anxiety, stress, and life transitions with compassion and expertise.
I have a deep understanding of issues affecting older adults, young professionals, and individuals managing chronic health conditions. My approach centers on building self-esteem, reducing isolation, and developing healthy coping strategies. I'm particularly skilled in supporting those struggling with anxiety, depression, body image concerns, caregiver stress, coping with grief and loss and coping with the effects of chronic medical conditions.
My therapeutic style emphasizes empowerment, self-compassion, and personalized healing. I create a supportive environment where clients can explore their experiences, challenge limiting beliefs, and cultivate meaningful personal growth. Whether you're dealing with mood disorders, relationship dynamics, or navigating significant life changes, I'm committed to walking alongside you with understanding and professional guidance.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
