Individual and Couples Therapy in New York City
& Westchester
I work with adults and couples who are thoughtful, capable, and often navigating moments of transition. Sometimes people come to therapy in moments of crisis. Others come not because something is immediately wrong, but because the tools they’ve been using stopped working (or maybe they never worked quite right). Or, because the relationship with yourself, or with those close to you, doesn’t feel fulfilling.
My work focuses on helping people understand the internal, behavioral, and relational patterns that shape how we live, connect, and make decisions. From that understanding, meaningful and sustainable change becomes possible.
Couples Therapy
Couples often seek therapy during periods of change or strain—early partnership, engagement decisions, parenthood, or moments when connection begins to feel harder to access. Conflict is not always the primary issue. Many couples are functioning well on the surface while feeling distant, stuck, or misaligned underneath.
In couples therapy, we look closely at the patterns that emerge between you—how needs are expressed, how conflict unfolds, and how each partner’s history and expectations influence the relationship. The goal is not to assign blame, but to increase clarity, reduce reactivity, and create space for more intentional connection.
Couples may come to work on:
- Repetitive conflicts that feel difficult to resolve
- Decisions about commitment, marriage, or family life
- Transitions such as becoming parents or redefining roles
- Emotional distance, resentment, or loss of intimacy
- Communication that feels unproductive or escalating
Individual Therapy
In individual therapy, I work with people who are reflective, curious, and often able to handle quite a lot. You may feel competent in many areas of life while noticing persistent questions, patterns, or dissatisfaction that are harder to name or address on your own.
Therapy provides space to think carefully and honestly about what may be operating beneath the surface—long-standing dynamics, internal conflicts, or decisions that feel difficult to clarify. Together, we work to make sense of these patterns so that choices can feel more deliberate and aligned.
Individual therapy may focus on:
- Relationship patterns that repeat despite insight
- Life transitions involving identity, work, or family
- Anxiety, stress, or emotional overwhelm
- Questions about direction, meaning, or next steps
- The impact of past experiences on present relationships
How I Work
My approach is relational, thoughtful, and collaborative. Sessions are a place to slow things down, speak openly, and examine what is often implicit or unspoken. I aim to create a space that feels both supportive and intellectually engaged, where insight leads to practical change over time.
People work with me for different lengths of time—some to address a specific concern, others more long-term as life evolves. You do not need a fully formed plan or a clear problem statement to begin.
