About Me

I strive to be curious and grounded so we can create a comfortable space for you to understand yourself more clearly. I can be empathic when you need comfort, or I can challenge you when you are inches away from a breakthrough. By asking questions and exploring new perspectives, we can unearth what is “not quite right” in your life. Therapy is a collaborative process, so let’s meet and see how you can overcome the obstacles standing in your way

​

I received my Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology from Adelphi University: Derner School of Psychology. I completed my doctoral-level internship at SUNY: College at Old Westbury’s Counseling Center. My post-doctoral fellowship was completed at Madison Park Psychological Services.

My other clinical experiences include:  New York Psychoanalytic Institute, Mount Sinai Beth Israel, and CUNY: The College of Staten Island’s Counseling Center.  

I have completed research on sexuality, psychological defense mechanisms and mindfulness-based interventions for attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). 

I continue to attend seminars and lectures regularly to remain up to date on the latest research and clinical methodology.
