I am a bilingual Spanish-English clinical psychologist working with individuals who experience depression, anxiety and interpersonal difficulties, and who, in many cases struggle with issues related to acculturation, racism and unequal justice.

I hold a Psy.D. in Clinical and Community Psychology from Pace University in New York as well as a Master’s degree in Forensic Psychology. I am a licensed clinical psychologist in my country of origin, Argentina, where I trained in psychoanalytic modes of treatment. Much of my clinical training in New York has been at NYU-Bellevue-where I worked with survivors of torture and trauma, individuals with severe personality disorders and was trained in the use of short-term psychotherapeutic techniques.

I am an empathetic therapist who specializes in anxiety, parenting, infertility and relationship issues. In treatment I aim to provide a safe, collaborative, and supportive environment for my client. I utilize a goal-oriented, integrative, and relational model in therapy.

I am a psychologist and psychotherapist with over thirty years experience as a clinician, supervisor, writer and presenter. Three elements that distinguish my work are the emphasis on Experiential Process (which has been shown to be an essential factor in the psychological change process) and the appreciation of Relational experience (the client's significant relationships, as well as our relationship, of client and therapist.)

I am a licensed clinical psychologist with offices in NYC and Montclair, NJ. I work with adults, college age and up.

As such, I am certified in EMDR and also utilize other interventions so helpful in treating trauma/PTSD such as Internal Family Systems as well as somatic and mindfulness interventions.

After closing my Brooklyn office, I relocated to Ithaca, NY, but see clients from NYC and throughout NY State via telehealth. My psychotherapy practice focuses on individuals and couples, ranging in age from young adults (18 and up), adults, and elderly. I strive to create a safe environment in which to explore life stressors, patterns of relating with others, and how past experiences impact the present.

Areas of professional practice include:

• Alcohol and drug use, harm reduction
• Relationships, separation and divorce
• Sexual issues and concerns
• LGBTQ
• Chronic pain and illness, including HIV

My style as a psychotherapist is supportive, empathic, and nonjudgmental. I have worked with adults and older adolescents who struggle with relationship issues, overwhelming emotions, challenging life circumstances, and difficult transitions. I work to help people better understand their areas of struggle and how they can use their strengths to cope with and overcome challenges. My goal is to help the people I work with achieve meaningful and lasting change that improves the quality of their lives.
