White Plains, NY

I realize that the decision to start therapy is not an easy one. Being in therapy is both a challenging and rewarding experience that can help you achieve life goals and help you reduce stress, anxiety, and symptoms of depression. I consider it a privilege to work as a psychologist and to be a part of my clients’ lives. Prior to opening my private practice, I worked in a college counseling center for 6 years. I thoroughly enjoy meeting with college students and helping them navigate the challenges they are facing. Feel free to contact me by phone or email if you would like to set up a first appointment or learn more about my practice.

I’m a bilingual Latinx therapist (LCSW in NY) passionate about supporting college students as they navigate the unique challenges of this stage of life. Whether you’re adjusting to a new environment, managing academic pressures, navigating relationships, or exploring your identity, I offer a warm and nonjudgmental space where you can feel heard and understood. As a Latinx therapist, I bring cultural awareness and sensitivity to my work, understanding the complex experiences of students from immigrant, Latinx, and underserved communities. I use evidence-based and culturally responsive approaches, like CBT, solution-focused therapy, and trauma-informed care, to help students develop coping strategies, build confidence, and thrive both personally and academically. My goal is to collaborate with you so you feel supported, empowered, and ready to succeed on your own terms.

Hey, man. Your friends, family, or your partner aren't supposed to be your therapist. You need an outlet where you can be vulnerable, speak freely, and unburden yourself without any fear of backlash that could damage the relationship. You want a return on investment of the time, money, and energy that you put into therapy because that's what matters most. You need a therapist who gets you because you deserve to build a life worth living. This relationship needs to feel right, and you want a therapist who can join you through the truth, tell you like it is, and help you find the best tools for your toolbox. Usually, clients connect with me because of challenges connected to men's issues, grief & loss, emotion regulation, relationship issues, and life transitions through pregnancy and postpartum.

Emotional pain can make you dread going to sleep, waking up, eating and even interacting with loved ones. It can disconnect you from your joy. If you’ve had a life event that shakes you to the core can feel incredibly isolating. But major losses in life also open doors to big transformations.

Lee, MA

I earned my PsyD (Doctor of Psychology) degree at The Chicago School of Professional Psychology and I have worked in different settings including university/community counseling centers, dual diagnosis treatment centers, and psychiatric hospitals (Austen Riggs Center). I work from a psychoanalytic orientation. This approach emphasizes the importance of both past and present experiences, relationships, emotions, patterns of being, and the unconscious. While it is natural to want to move away from suffering, it is when we give it a voice that healing can begin. Though genetics can play a role in the development of psychiatric problems; symptoms are some of the ways our psyche and body deal with pain that has not been understood, contextualized, and articulated. My goal as a psychoanalytic therapist is to help my patients notice how their symptoms are not accidental experiences to dodge, but rather meaningful communications to explore. Only through this inquiry can patients tap into interpersonal and intrapersonal as well as conscious and unconscious phenomena that have shaped their life and continue to contribute to their suffering.
