Clinical Social Work / Therapist, LCSW
I am intuitive, open-minded, and direct in my practice. I help people when they are feeling overwhelmed by life and unsure how to move forward. I work with people struggling with their relationships, professional or family stresses, and life transitions. As a couples therapist, I support partners to improve communication, increase intimacy, identify yearnings, co-parent more effectively, and mediate for couples considering separation and divorce. Respecting your goals is my priority and my aim is to work collaboratively to help you discover new ways to find meaning and build personal changes that can lead to a better life.
As a certified couples therapist and psychodynamically trained psychotherapist, I work in the "here and now" while trying to understand how past experiences influence the present. I use the framework of the life cycle to guide my work. This multidimensional approach opens up new avenues through which you see the world and become empowered.
In addition to my private practice at the Washington Square Institute, I am currently a Clinic Associate at the Ackerman Institute for the Family where I work specifically with couples and families. My private practice focuses primarily on young adults, adults, and elders.
