integrative Psychotherapy New York

Getting started is easy. Send me an email or schedule your session online. You will receive some e-forms from my Simple Practice platform, and once those are completed, we will have our first session together. Forms must be completed before the session, or your session will be cancelled.

Your first appointment is an opportunity to begin building a thoughtful, collaborative therapeutic relationship. We’ll explore what brings you to therapy, the challenges you’re currently experiencing, and what you hope to change or understand more deeply. Prior to our meeting, you’ll complete a comprehensive intake questionnaire, which we’ll review together to gain a nuanced understanding of your history, values, and goals.

The initial sessions may include discussion of emotional patterns, physical health considerations, relationships, lifestyle factors, stressors, and coping strategies. This holistic perspective helps clarify contributing influences on your well-being and informs a personalized, integrative treatment plan designed to support meaningful and sustainable change.

When appropriate, additional assessments or referrals may be discussed to further support your care.

You will leave the initial consultation with a wealth of information. Most people find some relief after our first meeting.

I offer an integrative, trauma-informed approach to psychotherapy tailored to the unique needs of each individual or couple. My work draws from evidence-based and depth-oriented modalities, including EMDR therapy, somatic psychotherapy, psychodynamic and psychoanalytic therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and Internal Family Systems (IFS). Treatment may also incorporate nervous system regulation and mind–body approaches when clinically appropriate.

This integrative model allows therapy to address not only symptoms, but the underlying psychological, relational, and physiological patterns contributing to distress—supporting lasting emotional resilience, insight, and meaningful change.

My work reflects years of study across evidence-based, somatic, and depth-oriented approaches, woven into a cohesive therapeutic framework, allowing me to tailor care with precision rather than relying on a single therapeutic framework. And, I’m a bit of a self-proclaimed workshop enthusiast.

This is a boutique, concierge-level psychotherapy practice designed for depth, discretion, and individualized care. I intentionally work with a limited number of clients, allowing for extended sessions, flexible scheduling, and a highly attuned therapeutic relationship. Treatment is integrative and trauma-informed, combining EMDR, somatic psychotherapy, and depth-oriented approaches to address both emotional patterns and nervous system regulation.

What distinguishes this work is the integration of clinical rigor with a whole-person perspective. Therapy is tailored to the psychological, relational, and physiological dimensions of each client’s experience, with a focus on root causes rather than symptom management alone. This approach is well-suited for individuals and couples seeking thoughtful, sophisticated care and meaningful, lasting change.

I work with adult women, men, couples, and families with adult children seeking deeper self-understanding and more authentic connection. My practice includes women navigating the complex terrain of midlife—balancing career, relationships, identity, hormonal shifts and purpose—as well as couples, including traditional and non-traditional partnerships, working to strengthen or repair their bond or recover from betrayal. Many of my clients are professionals, creatives, and entrepreneurs—founders, executives, artists, actors, educators, and therapists, who appear successful on the outside yet feel a quiet sense of disconnection or unease within. They have a shared desire for meaningful change and emotional freedom. I also bring extensive experience supporting public figures, performers, and other high-profile clients whose lives unfold in the public eye, offering a discreet, attuned space to explore the pressures and vulnerabilities that accompany visibility and success.

As a licensed psychotherapist, I provide professional assessment, diagnosis, and evidence-based treatment for a range of mental health conditions. My approach integrates clinical depth with an attuned, relational style that honors both the science and the soul of healing.

Yes. In addition to psychotherapy, I offer specialized coaching services for individuals seeking lifestyle optimization, personal growth, and transformational support.

Coaching is designed for clients who are emotionally stable and interested in working on patterns such as self-sabotage, creative or professional blocks, life transitions, and personal expansion. This work focuses on forward-looking goals, insight, and skill-building, rather than the diagnosis or treatment of mental health conditions.

My coaching approach is trauma-informed and informed by EMDR and Internal Family Systems (IFS) principles, using structured tools and experiential exercises to help clients build awareness, shift entrenched patterns, and support optimal mental health and well-being. Coaching may also include curated lifestyle and wellness protocols—such as stress resilience practices, nervous system support, and integrative strategies—to support clarity, vitality, and sustainable change.

Coaching services are distinct from psychotherapy and do not involve diagnosis, clinical treatment, or insurance billing. When therapy is clinically indicated, services are offered under a psychotherapy framework or clients are referred appropriately.

Coaching services are educational and developmental in nature and are not a substitute for psychotherapy, mental health treatment, or medical care.

This is a private-pay practice. I do not participate in insurance networks, which allows for greater privacy, flexibility, and individualized care. Upon request, I can provide documentation for clients who wish to pursue out-of-network reimbursement. OON plans typically pay 50-100% after the deductible is met.

This varies significantly by individual. Some clients find meaningful relief in a focused course of 8–16 sessions; others engage in longer-term work to address complex trauma, relational patterns, or deep-seated beliefs. The pace and duration of treatment are always tailored to your goals and needs — there is no standard protocol applied to a complex person.

Yes. This is one of the core specialties of this practice. Hormonal shifts during perimenopause and menopause have profound effects on mood, anxiety, sleep, identity, and relationships — effects that are frequently dismissed or misdiagnosed. Treatment here is hormone-informed, integrative, and tailored to the full complexity of midlife transition.

Yes. Couples therapy is offered for partners navigating conflict, betrayal, emotional distance, communication breakdown, and intimacy challenges. This practice works with traditional and non-traditional partnerships — including ENM, polyamory, and alternative lifestyle couples — using attachment-based and trauma-informed approaches.

Yes. All sessions are offered via secure telehealth throughout New York City and New York State. Virtual therapy is equally effective for most clients and often more practical for busy professionals. Expanded services are also available in Massachusetts and the Berkshires.

Not at all. While EMDR was developed for trauma, it is now widely used for anxiety, depression, phobias, panic, low self-worth, perfectionism, grief, and performance blocks. If a past experience — large or small — continues to shape how you feel or respond today, EMDR can help.

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is an evidence-based therapy originally developed to treat trauma and PTSD. It works by engaging the brain's natural information-processing system to help reprocess distressing memories that have become stuck — reducing their emotional charge and allowing them to be integrated in a healthier way. In sessions, this is facilitated through bilateral stimulation such as guided eye movements or tapping while you hold a targeted memory or belief in mind. Many clients notice meaningful shifts in fewer sessions than traditional talk therapy.
