I help successful, world-class achievers who feel disconnected, frustrated and unsatisfied in their lives, to transform their relationships - to themselves and to others - to create the love, connection and fulfillment they desire deep down. If you are tired of feeling stuck, misunderstood, and unsatisfied with yourself and/or your relationships, despite your other successes and achievements, I am here for you. I hold two master’s Degrees from Columbia University and am the inventor of Life Therapy™, a combination of Psychotherapy & Coaching + Mindfulness & Meditation. For almost 18 years I've had an out-of-pocket only practice, and recently created a concierge model so that you can get a portion of your experience covered by insurance!

I am a licensed clinical social worker and clinical hypnotherapist specializing in life success for all ages. The more you look into the darkness, the lighter it becomes. This is my life statement. I have seen the darkest times, and the worst of times, and have experienced personal failures in life. When I speak with clients it is from a place of empathy, understanding, compassion, and non-judgment. No one promised this life of ours would be easy, but I can promise to serve you as you work towards healing yourself. I believe that you are the expert yourself, and I am just a guide here to show you some of the tools, skills, and therapeutic approaches I have acquired.
