Therapy Services

 
  • I conduct individual therapy with adults and adolescents. Though I have experience with people of all ages and backgrounds, I have had particular focus in working with people of color, immigrants, and LGBTQ+ people. I tend to focus on issues of complex trauma, loneliness, relationship issues, sexuality, gender, spiritual issues, and family dysfunction.

  • I mainly conduct psychodynamic therapy, which mostly consists of me providing a safe and non-judgmental atmosphere where people can explore their difficulties, understand how the past affects the present, and help them figure out why they get stuck in situations and patterns which cause suffering.

    This relies on the idea that there is an unconscious mind, and that sometimes, the feelings and beliefs we repress deep down and "forget" about can be the root cause of difficulties in our day-to-day functioning.

    I also integrate skills from cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) as needed.

  • I am not currently accepting new clients. This page is updated regularly, and I encourage you to check again in a few months.

    I am a licensed psychologist in New York State only. I cannot see clients located outside of New York.

    I currently practice at Montefiore-Einstein Psychiatry Associates (Telehealth only), and accept Aetna, Anthem/Blue Cross-Blue Shield. I am able to accept out-of-network benefits to cover all/part of my fee if you do not have these insurances. We can speak more about navigating insurance on an intake call, or you can call your insurance to inquire about out-of-network behavioral health benefits.
