ADHD therapists and psychiatrists in New York

I am a licensed clinical psychologist in NY & NJ and Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapist. I also have a particular interest in working with LGBTQ+ folks, creative artists, individuals & couples with sexual difficulties, people struggling with existential anxiety, and those seeking support integrating psychedelic experiences.

I began practicing as a mental health counselor in 2013 and have worked with adults, adolescents, families and couples struggling with disorders ranging from depression, anxiety, ADHD, bipolar disorder, to borderline personality disorder. My practice is informed by Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) — both evidence-based interventions that help clients make positive changes in behaviors and build coping skills and strategies to live more fully. I help clients build their own strengths to make change possible. I received my MA in Counseling in 2012 from Maryville University in St. Louis and am licensed in both New York State and Missouri. Prior to becoming a therapist, I was a public relations and marketing executive and business consultant. I hold a Masters degree in German and speak German fluently.
