Inclusive Psychotherapy

I am a psychotherapist in private practice in Manhattan on the Upper West Side. Beginning my clinical work in 2017, I have had several years of experience working with a diverse population with varied concerns in both inpatient and outpatient settings. I am a psychodynamic practitioner with a relational approach but I tailor my therapy by using methodology from various theories including: Queer-Affirmative Therapy, REBT, CBT, DBT, Motivational Interviewing, Multicultural, and Person-Centered. I am there to listen and work with you on whatever goal you have including social anxiety, sex/relationships, depression, feelings of loneliness, or if you simply want to become mindful and have more insight into your life.

Therapy for Gay Men

Along with my general practice, I also specialize in psychotherapy focused on the gay male experience. Understanding the complexities of growing up gay, experiencing sex and dating through a lens of a heteronormative upbringing, and navigating dating and intimacy as a gay man are all themes that I often work on in my practice. I have worked with gay men in recovery or a variety of addictions, and those looking for sustainable fulfilling relationships with friends, family, and romantic partners. I welcome conversations around sex and relationships both open, poly, or monogamous. In a field that can feel unapproachable and stigmatizing of our experience, I seek to create a space for growth and exploration.

I believe that everyone deserves to take a little time for self-care. Finding a place where we feel that we can be our authentic selves can be very helpful in this process. Through an eclectic therapeutic approach I believe I can better serve clients who are seeking to accomplish a wide range of goals. Ultimately therapy can serve many purposes, the ability to gain insight into your own life can be one of the greatest ways to help us to understand others.
