I am a psychotherapy extern who works with people in New York City, NY state, and New Jersey. I specialize in helping individuals navigate life’s challenges including difficulties in relationships and intimacy, anxiety and depression, traumatic experiences from the the past, self esteem, and complex family dynamics in order to create lasting change.
Feeling trapped and preventing yourself from realizing your potential can be caused by fear, hopelessness, and challenging relationships. Even while we can’t always eliminate obstacles, you can learn coping mechanisms and resilience that will support you as you strive toward fulfillment. You’ll discover how to proactively handle stressors instead of just reacting to them.
My therapeutic approach utilizes utilizes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) techniques to help you restructure thought patterns and habits that may be preventing you from leading the life you deserve which includes guiding you through trauma processing, anxiety reduction, or relationship enhancement. By blending traditional therapeutic techniques with fitness-oriented strategies, I work with clients to build their self-esteem to develop a positive body-mind connection. This holistic approach recognizes the powerful interplay between physical and mental health, and I tailor my strategies to meet each client’s unique needs and goals.
My approach to treating each client is unique, and adapted to each individual, so that you can:
- Empower yourself with healthy thinking patterns and reduce thinking that distorts your self-perception
- Nurture unhealed emotional pain from the past
- Explore how to connect and communicate with people in ways that are true to who you are
- Establish boundaries that respect your needs and limitations
- Improve your relationships to promote meaningful relationships with others
I encourage you to reach out today for a complimentary 30-minute phone session so that we can get to know each other.
