Specialties: Anxiety, attachment issues, academic under-achievement, adjustment disorders, autism spectrum disorder, behavioral issues, body image, couples counseling, depression, eating disorders, Fertility issues, Grief, Learning disorders, parenting/co-parenting issues, parent-child relational issues, play therapy, testing and evaluation, trauma
I am a licensed clinical psychologist with several areas of specialization. I received a doctoral degree in clinical/ child psychology from Yeshiva University and a master’s degree in mental health counseling from New York University. Throughout my years of training I have worked with individuals, couples, and families of all ages and backgrounds. While I am flexible and tailor my treatment to individual patients needs, I primarily work from a psychodynamic-relationally based perspective.
I have a warm and open therapeutic style. I approach therapy from the belief that everyone, regardless of age or circumstance, longs to be seen and understood. From this perspective I strive to understand each patient and work collaboratively to establish a strong therapeutic alliance and create space where an individual can feel supported, heard, and cared for.
When I am not working as a psychologist I enjoy reading, traveling, horseback riding, and having fun with my family.

My role as a therapist is to provide clients with a supportive, safe, and non-judgmental environment where clients feel comfortable enough to share their emotions, thoughts and experiences. I understand that each client is unique, therefore, I use a variety of therapeutic approaches that can produce successful outcomes. I use therapeutic approaches such as but not limited to Narrative Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Structural Family Therapy (SFT), and Motivational Interviewing. Through collaborative efforts, one of my goals as a therapist is to provide clients with coping skills that will ultimately lead to a fulfilling lifestyle. The therapeutic process is a journey and I look forward to working with you.

My experience includes couples, families, children/adolescents, and group therapy. I also specialize in Nurtured Parenting Skills, which provides parents with strategies/coping skills, effective parenting techniques, and offers support for parents who may have children with behavioral and developmental issues, and/or lack disciplinary skills. Life sometimes presents stressful or traumatic events and I am confident that my experience can assist you through these times.
In my free time, I enjoy relaxing at the spa, watching movies, and good ole’ family time. I also love going to the gym; it helps me to relax as well. Balance is key and is also an essential part to living a healthy lifestyle.

Specialties: Generalized Anxiety, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, Specific Phobias, Adjustment Disorders, Existential Issues, Autism Spectrum Disorder, Behavioral Issues, Mood Disorders, Behavioral Weight Management, Psychological Testing, Forensic Risk Assessment
I completed my Master’s and Doctoral degrees at LIU Post in Brookville, NY. While in school I received broad training in providing psychotherapy to adults and children for a wide variety of problems, as well as in psychological evaluation. As a student I trained at inpatient hospitals, community mental health centers, and outpatient specialty centers. I have extensive experience working with people with developmental disabilities, providing behavior modification services, psychotherapy, and psychological evaluations. I am also trained to conduct risk assessments and develop risk management plans for individuals involved in the criminal justice system. Finally, I have a personal and professional passion for behavioral weight management and have sought specialized training in this area. Although I am trained to provide treatment using both psychodynamic and cognitive behavioral techniques, I lean heavily towards behavioral and cognitive behavioral methods.
I believe that therapy should be a collaboration between the client, who is an “expert” in themselves, and the therapist, who is trained to provide the client with the “tools” to overcome their challenges and succeed. I believe in being open about what is working and what is not working in terms of therapeutic interventions, in order to make the most of our time together.
In my spare time I enjoy spending time with my wife (also a psychologist!) and two young children. I also enjoy reading, doing projects around the house, and woodworking.

“You do not just wake up and become the butterfly, growth is a process.” – Rupi Kaur
Seeking therapy is not an easy decision, for this is a process where you expose your most private thoughts and feelings such as fear, shame, and guilt. I provide a safe and comfortable space during your most vulnerable and difficult time of reflecting and discovering yourself. I believe life is too short to live in the past or fear what the future holds, and I will be by your side helping you to learn how to mentally and emotionally live in the present. I believe in ‘practicing what I preach,’ so I will be practicing skills with you in order to motivate you to continue taking care of yourself and becoming the best version of who you strive to be. My practice approach is primarily Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, while using mindfulness techniques in order to counteract negative thought patterns and connect the mind and body in a healthy way.
At Johnson & Wales University, I completed a full-time 18-month Master’s in Counseling program where I concentrated in Mental Health and Substance Use/Addictions. I have experience working with children as young as 4, adolescents, and adults within a diverse cultural population. With my education and passion in counseling, I use the valuable skills I’ve learned as well as continuing to learn clinical techniques and skills throughout my professional career.
When I’m not in the office, you’ll find me with my hiking boots and a backpack full of snacks climbing numerous trails that lead to a beautiful view. When I’m not spending my day with nature, I’ll be in a car or plane traveling to my next adventure. In addition to exploring and traveling, I enjoy trying new restaurants, cooking, and baking!

Education and Experience
I graduated in 2017 from Caldwell University with a Master’s degree in Counseling with a Mental Health Specialization. The program was accredited by the Council for Accreditation of Counseling and Related Educational Programs (CACREP), meaning that my program was evaluated and deemed to meet or exceed national standards in counseling and prepares students for entry into professional practice. My time at and after my schooling gave me experience working in outpatient, partial care, and in-home environments with all ages and all peoples with different diagnoses. With the help of the schooling and experience, I am currently a Licensed Associate Counselor (LAC), National Certified Counselor (NCC), and Applied Suicide Intervention Skills Training (ASIST) certified. I am confident that my experience can assist me in being an effective counselor to address your counseling and growth needs.
Counseling Philosophy and Treatment Approach
Counseling, in my eyes, is a process where we confront our fears in an attempt to create a path to our ideal selves and future. Through a combination of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT), and an eclectic mindset, I hope to work with you and support and assist in your growth.
Hobbies and About Me
On my off hours, I spend my free time reading, expressing myself through arts and crafts, spending time with family and friends, taking care of my two cats, and out exploring. I also am currently studying how to further incorporate spirituality into counseling. This work/life balance allows me to maintain my holistic wellness.

I believe that all individuals have the ability to effect change in their lives, and that my role as therapist is to empower my clients to lead fulfilling and happier lives. Through a collaborative relationship, I help my clients envision the lives they want to lead and reach their goals in a safe, compassionate and supportive environment. I do not believe in a “one size fits all” approach to therapy. Recognizing that each client has unique needs, strengths and resources, I use a variety of therapeutic techniques such as play therapy, experiential therapy, solution focused therapy, structural family therapy and family systems therapy.
Before obtaining a master’s degree in marriage and family therapy from Iona College, I worked as a lawyer with children, adolescents and families who were experiencing family and relationship conflict. As a marriage and family therapist, I have worked with couples, individuals, children and adolescents providing individual, family and group therapy. My experience includes helping my clients strengthen peer and family relationships, explore trauma and loss and navigate parenting and relationship challenges.I am also a certified divorce mediator and believe that spouses and families only benefit from resolving their issues without court intervention.
In my free time, I am an avid reader. I also love hiking and cycling and find peace in the beauty of nature. I travel whenever I can and, as an amateur photographer, my camera is always close at hand.

I believe that all individuals have the ability to effect change in their lives, and that my role as therapist is to empower my clients to lead fulfilling and happier lives. Through a collaborative relationship, I help my clients envision the lives they want to lead and reach their goals in a safe, compassionate and supportive environment. I do not believe in a “one size fits all” approach to therapy. Recognizing that each client has unique needs, strengths and resources, I use a variety of therapeutic techniques such as play therapy, experiential therapy, solution focused therapy, structural family therapy and family systems therapy.
Before obtaining a master’s degree in marriage and family therapy from Iona College, I worked as a lawyer with children, adolescents and families who were experiencing family and relationship conflict. As a marriage and family therapist, I have worked with couples, individuals, children and adolescents providing individual, family and group therapy. My experience includes helping my clients strengthen peer and family relationships, explore trauma and loss and navigate parenting and relationship challenges.I am also a certified divorce mediator and believe that spouses and families only benefit from resolving their issues without court intervention.
In my free time, I am an avid reader. I also love hiking and cycling and find peace in the beauty of nature. I travel whenever I can and, as an amateur photographer, my camera is always close at hand.
