About Me
I’m a licensed clinical psychologist in New York and New Jersey who works with adults facing challenges related to health, trauma, relationships, anxiety, depression, and life transitions. I use practical, evidence-based approaches—like CBT, ACT, and other therapies—to help you build coping skills, process difficult experiences, and move toward the life you want. I’ve worked extensively in hospital and team-based settings, and I’m experienced in supporting people through high-stress situations, including moments of crisis. My approach is warm, collaborative, and culturally responsive, and I’m committed to creating a space where people of all backgrounds—including Black and Brown communities, LGBTQ+ individuals, and Veterans—feel respected, understood, and supported.

Industry Relationships
Physicians and scientists on the faculty of the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai often interact with pharmaceutical, device, biotechnology companies, and other outside entities to improve patient care, develop new therapies and achieve scientific breakthroughs. In order to promote an ethical and transparent environment for conducting research, providing clinical care and teaching, Mount Sinai requires that salaried faculty inform the School of their outside financial relationships.
