Obsessive-compulsive disorder therapists & psychiatrists in New York

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Certified Bilingual School Psychologist with 17 years of psychotherapy experience and 20 years working as a school psychologist. This background gives me a deep understanding of how emotional patterns develop across childhood, adolescence, and adulthood, and how past experiences continue to shape a person’s current challenges.

Before becoming a therapist, I spent over 20 years in the corporate sector. That experience allows me to understand the pressures, expectations, and identity struggles faced by working professionals, especially those dealing with anxiety, burnout, and relationship stress.

I specialize in anxiety, depression, life transitions, and identity‐related concerns. I work effectively with millennials, Gen Z, Gen X, and baby boomers — anyone navigating change, uncertainty, or a sense of not fitting in. Born and raised in New York City, I bring a grounded, compassionate, and down‐to‐earth presence to therapy. I offer sessions in both English and Spanish and strive to create a warm, nonjudgmental space where clients feel safe to explore, heal, and grow.

I'm a licensed clinical social worker, and throughout my time in the field, I've worked with a diverse group of clients living with psychotic and mood disorders, anxiety, depression, adjustment issues, dual diagnoses, reentry, women's issues, and crisis management. I have experience working in schools, hospitals, and intensive outpatient care.

I am a licensed Clinical and School Psychologist (PhD) with 20 years of experience supporting children, adolescents, and adults through a variety of life's challenges. My work spans clinical, educational, and therapeutic settings, giving me a deep understanding of how emotional well-being intersects with learning, relationships, and daily functioning across the life-span. My therapeutic approach is grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), with integration of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and solution-focused strategies. I work with children, adolescents, and adults on concerns including anxiety and stress management, depression and mood difficulties, life transitions and adjustments, emotion regulation and coping skills, behavioral and school related concerns, parenting support and guidance, and executive functioning skills.
