Psychotherapy 

 

I am passionate about my clinical work, where I take a strengths based stance, with the understanding that interpersonal struggles as well as symptoms (of depression and anxiety for example) are often the result of best efforts to cope with challenges of life. I work with individuals, couples and groups to develop acceptance and understanding of one’s current strategies for living and what purpose they serve and how they may be problematic. Through this lens, together we will work to develop a deeper sense of self, purpose and accomplishment in order to more authentically and deeply connect with your life, both with people and work, ultimately leading to the accomplishment of your personal and professional goals. I welcome individuals and couples with a history of loss, trauma, or mental health issues.

Group Therapy

This interpersonal process group is open all to individuals ages 20’s – 60’s who wish to develop in personal authenticity and connectedness to others.  In this group, we work with moment-to-moment interactions to uncover habitual narratives that stand in the way of understanding and being understood by others in our lives. 

 Working in a group, in this way, offers a unique opportunity to be witnessed - and to witness – the ways in which we protect ourselves and inadvertently prevent ourselves from being a source of and a recipient of vital connection and support.

Individuals struggling in their relationships, with life transitions, work/career related stress, interpersonal trauma, grief and loss, or more general symptoms of anxiety or depression are welcome to reach out to me to discuss group membership.   

WHEN: Thursdays, 6:30pm - 8:00pm

WHERE: West 86th St.

FEE: $80/session
