Licensed Psychologist

“I am a seasoned psychologist working with children and adults. I have exensive training in psychoanalytic psychotherapy and in group work.”

About me

As a seasoned psychologist, I work with children and adults, helping them explore life's challenges. My extensive training in psychoanalytic psychotherapy allows us to understand long-held patterns. I also offer group work, where shared experiences can foster connection and growth. This approach suits those seeking a deeper understanding of themselves and lasting personal change. I aim to provide a calm, thoughtful space for your journey forward.

Approach

In my New York office sessions move at a considered pace, whether with children, adults or in groups, and I lean on play, reflective dialogue and carefully timed silences to surface entrenched patterns. I offer appointments in Hebrew when helpful and arrange sessions to fit the rhythms of family and work life here. We map links between past experience and present reactions, naming moments of anger, anxiety or relational strain, and I suggest small, practical experiments between meetings. Those seeking steady, thoughtful collaboration tend to find this approach grounding.
