I received my doctorate in School-Clinical Psychology from Ferkauf Graduate School of Psychology at Yeshiva University. During my pre-doctoral internship and postdoctoral fellowship at Cognitive and Behavioral Consultants (CBC), I provided individual, group, and family therapy, co-led CBT and DBT groups, conducted neuropsychological evaluations, and trained schools in implementing these therapies. Prior to working at CBC, I held externship positions at the Anxiety Disorders Center at the Child Mind Institute, Montefiore Medical Center’s Rose F. Kennedy Center/Children’s Evaluation and Rehabilitation Center (CERC), and the Cooke Grammar School.
Additionally, I hold a Master’s in Social Work from Columbia University and Bachelor of Science in Human and Organizational Development from Vanderbilt University.
My approach to therapy is warm, energetic, and friendly. I aim to make sessions feel casual, almost like speaking to a close friend, while maintaining professionalism. I believe in the importance of meeting face-to-face before deciding if we’re a good fit, so I always offer a complimentary 15-minute Zoom call for potential clients. This helps ensure that you feel comfortable and supported right from the start.
