My Background
I am a clinical psychologist licensed in New York. I am also licensed in Florida for telehealth. I specialize in the treatment of mood and anxiety disorders. My areas of expertise include emotional and behavioral dysregulation, depression, anxiety, OCD, relationship problems, and parenting struggles.
I am intensively trained in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and I am a DBT-Linehan Board of Certification, Certified Clinician. I also am intensively trained in Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT). I have completed specialized training in exposure therapy for anxiety disorders and trauma, including Exposure and Response Prevention (EXRP) for OCD, and Prolonged Exposure (PE) and Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) for PTSD. I also specialize in parent-based treatment for child anxiety, OCD, and related disorders, including Supportive Parenting for Anxious Childhood Emotions (SPACE).
I strive to foster a transparent, non-judgmental, and warm environment. My aim is to collaborate with you to develop a personalized plan to target your goals.
I am a member of several professional organizations, including the Association for Behavioral and Cognitive Therapy (ABCT) and NYC-CBT.
