Immediate Openings Via Telehealth. We tend to seek therapy when the messages we received in the past no longer align with who we were or who we want to be. Change can occur when folks feel validated, recognize their strengths and gifts, and learn strategies to navigate life’s challenges. I work with a variety of folks and have expertise connected with LGBTQI+, Disability, complex trauma, and issues impacting youths and adults, couples counseling, and individual counseling. As a therapist, I strive to create a warm and engaging environment to identify and explore your concerns, so we can work towards your goals. My approach is compassionate, down to earth, funny (at least I think so), and individualized to your needs. You can expect freedom from judgement and a safer space to explore what is showing up in your life. I'm trained in several evidence-based approaches and I am results oriented. I enjoy working with individuals and couples. Let's have an initial phone conversation to determine if we click. I am fluent in American Sign Language (ASL), with over a decade of experience connected to sign language interpreting. I am Licensed in Rhode Island and New York.

Life is stressful. Change and acceptance are difficult & sometimes seem downright impossible. As a psychotherapist my goal is to help you: feel supported; gain confidence; & cope with life's-stressors. Together we will create a flexible treatment plan 'tailor-made' for you. You will gain insight, learn coping skills, feel and become self-empowered. I have over 32 years’ experience helping clients/students suffering from anxiety, depression, loss/grief, & relationship issues. My experience also includes teaching all levels of psychology, supervising therapists, and helping people deal with life's transitions. Remember, our sessions will be 'tailor-made' to meet your wants and needs. And, to help me fulfill my promise to you of 'tailor-made sessions,' I adhere to the following mandate of Carl Gustav Jung: "Know your theories well - then place them on the shelf when in a room with the miracle of a human soul." Problems that we cannot 'solve,' together we WILL 'manage.' Phone call inquiries guarantee a response because I check my voicemail frequently. Emails - not as quickly. Please inquire about my sliding scale fee to meet your financial needs.

As your therapist I will help you navigate various pressures, and triggers in order to be more insightful as a means of coping.

Life can get really tough sometimes and I think we all need a place to come and just BE REAL with another person. Vent feelings, share thoughts that one is not really comfortable sharing with close friends and family, just lay it all out however messy. ABOUT ME: I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in both California and New York with over 15 years in the field. I got my Masters degree in Integral Counseling Psychology at California Institute of Integral Studies in San Francisco, CA in 2008. My areas of study was Gestalt Therapy, Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction and Creative Arts Therapy. I believe that finding the right match with a therapist is crucial. It’s like dating, you have to keep looking until you find some chemistry, a click, and feel like the person really gets you. I work primarily with individuals and unfortunately am not accepting couples into my practice at this time. I build resilience by teaching skills to manage anxiety, depression, life's ups and downs, be it learning to be kinder to yourself or learning to manage feelings when relationships change. My style of therapy is warm, compassionate, honest, and direct. I welcome your mess. We can sort through the piles together and see if we can't come out with some gold.
I earned my PsyD (Doctor of Psychology) degree at The Chicago School of Professional Psychology and I have worked in different settings including university/community counseling centers, dual diagnosis treatment centers, and psychiatric hospitals (Austen Riggs Center). I work from a psychoanalytic orientation. This approach emphasizes the importance of both past and present experiences, relationships, emotions, patterns of being, and the unconscious. While it is natural to want to move away from suffering, it is when we give it a voice that healing can begin. Though genetics can play a role in the development of psychiatric problems; symptoms are some of the ways our psyche and body deal with pain that has not been understood, contextualized, and articulated. My goal as a psychoanalytic therapist is to help my patients notice how their symptoms are not accidental experiences to dodge, but rather meaningful communications to explore. Only through this inquiry can patients tap into interpersonal and intrapersonal as well as conscious and unconscious phenomena that have shaped their life and continue to contribute to their suffering.
