Providing psychotherapy services in Brooklyn, NY

 Welcome to my practice! The therapist-client relationship is pivotal to helping you make progress on your personal goals. Together, we identify challenges, and help you shift your challenges to create the happier and healthier life you want and deserve. I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy for adolescents and adults. This type of treatment is effective for anxiety disorders, depressive disorders, issues with relationships, emotional regulation difficulties, managing impulsive behaviors, substance abuse, and eating disorders. 

I specialize in family therapy, therapy with adolescents and teenagers, and individuals with cognitive, developmental, and learning disabilities, as well as traumatic brain injuries. I specialize in anxiety disorders, substance abuse for adolescents, palliative and hospice care, and depressive disorders.

I offer a weekly Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills group for adolescents and adults that focuses on the four modules in DBT: mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotion regulation, and interpersonal relationship skills. 

I am also adept at providing a spirituality focus to my practice, and have experience in spirituality and psychotherapy.
