About me
I am a licensed creative arts therapist and counselor based in New York City, USA. I have worked with adults, adolescents and children since 2000 in private practice, medical, psychiatric, and school settings. I have a general practice, but have focused on: grief and loss, life transitions, relationships, parenting issues, mood disorders, anxiety, body image issues, support through medical experiences and chronic medical issues, and "feeling stuck".
My training and certifications are in dance/movement therapy and counseling, child life therapy, and movement analysis. I have spent many years studying body/mind centering.
About my practice
I believe that psychotherapy offers us the opportunity to gain insight into ourselves, and to move forward in our lives, to clarify what our goals are and how to approach them. My approach is eclectic, combining strength-based, goal oriented talk therapy with movement and body awareness explorations and other expressive arts as it suits the needs and interests of the client. When a client and I start, we focus on exploring what your needs and goals are and how we would best work together. I believe that therapy should help us move forward in our lives, and move through our lives with greater ease and range of expression, so I am a big fan of being goal oriented and interactive, and letting you know what I observe and feel. I encourage clients to take an active role and work on issues between sessions.
My Services
My office space is convenient, comfortable and conducive to safe and creative expression. My style is comfortable, supportive, and non-judgmental, and fosters curiosity and growth. I also offer skype, email, and phone sessions.
I look forward to meeting you or your child and discussing what I can offer. I offer a variety of options for day, evening and weekend sessions.
