Override Hero Title

I am a licensed clinical psychologist in NY & NJ and Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapist. I also have a particular interest in working with LGBTQ+ folks, creative artists, individuals & couples with sexual difficulties, people struggling with existential anxiety, and those seeking support integrating psychedelic experiences.

To listen to another person's story and be a part of the process of their progress is my mission. I have always been curious about human interactions and the story that someone tells. As a psychotherapist, I see that working with the human psyche in the Western world can present challenges. A place where "wellness" is fostered with approaches that seek to eliminate undesired behaviors and thought patterns. Instead I work in a way that welcomes all aspects of you and and your personality. I bring a compassionate and curious approach to facilitating your journey toward understanding yourself more deeply and moving toward change.

As a licensed psychologist, I have a strong background in providing care across the life span, with expertise in areas such as child and adolescent psychology, eating disorders, issues among men and boys, identity - based issues, as well as family and couples.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with 21 years of experience working with adults facing anxiety, depression, grief, and major life transitions. I specialize in men's mental health — an area I'm deeply passionate about, as many men are taught to push through hardship rather than process it. That said, I work with clients of all genders and backgrounds. My practice is grounded in talk therapy, and I bring a direct yet compassionate style that clients often describe as refreshingly honest.
