| Practice Description: |
I am a licensed clinical psychologist with experience dealing with a variety of issues, including but not limited to relationship difficulties, anxiety, grief, depression, anger management, trauma, compulsions, and body image. I also have a particular interest in working with expectant parents, college students and those clients who have experienced early loss. I have a warm and collaborative style and I work to create a supportive environment in which my clients feel safe to explore their feelings.
I work primarily from a psychodynamic perspective, this means that I believe that the problems my clients face are rooted in both current and past relational experiences as well as in feelings outside of conscious awareness. As such, through collaborative exploration of these experiences in therapy, I aim to help my clients gain greater self-awareness, symptom relief, and achieve personal growth. I also utilize cognitive therapy and mindfulness techniques in my work in order for my clients to gain more awareness and control of their thought patterns, so that they can works towards greater resiliency during stressful times.
I have significant expertise working with children, adolescents and adults in a number of settings such as hospitals, clinics, and eating disorder treatment facilities. As a result, I am comfortable working with a diverse group of clients with struggles related to a variety of issues. In addition to my private practice, I work as a child and adolescent psychologist at a Brooklyn Hospital where I provide psychological services and supervise psychology students.
