There are numerous transitions in life. Teenagers moving from high school to college, young adults leaving college to enter the work force and all of the transitions in an adult life: relationships, job changes, growing a family and more. As individuals navigate through life transitions, they can find themselves feeling stuck or overwhelmed waiting to settle into the new. These transitions range in time and can take weeks or months to navigate. This time brings new challenges and barriers to overcome and asks us to respond in new ways. We will work together to recognize that each transition is truly a new beginning. I believe in providing a caring and supportive healing environment for my clients so that we may develop a trusting working relationship. During the course of treatment we will work collaboratively to help clarify issues, set goals, gain insight and understanding, and create more effective and satisfying methods of moving forward in your life.

Scarsdale, NY

I specialize in working with adolescents, college students, and adults struggling with anxiety, depression, and related concerns. While I specialize in using a cognitive behavioral (CBT) approach, it may also be useful to integrate insight-oriented therapies, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing approaches, depending on specific client needs. I utilize tailored approaches with clients to help them become the best versions of themselves. Therapy looks different for everyone, as it should. No matter what each client’s goals are, I emphasize trusting the process. From my perspective you are the expert on yourself; I follow your lead. I work to meet my clients where they are which means that stepping on the gas or pumping the brakes is up to you, allowing you to feel a sense of control during sessions. My hope is that you will feel like you are talking with someone who is genuinely interested in helping you reach your goals, whatever they may be.
