Hello! My goal is to work with clients who are struggling with various life challenges. I am a specialist in treating chronic depression, suicidal thoughts and/or behaviors, & anxiety. I am also highly specialized in the assessment and treatment of Borderline Personality Disorder.

Hi, I’m glad you’re here. Reaching out for support takes courage, and my goal is to create a space where you feel understood, respected, and empowered. I believe therapy is a collaborative process—we’ll work together to better understand your challenges, uncover patterns, and build on your strengths so you can move toward lasting change. I specialize in psychodynamic therapy with individuals, helping clients explore how their past and present experiences shape their thoughts, feelings, and relationships. I aim to provide a compassionate and nonjudgmental environment where we can work side by side toward meaningful growth.

Individuals are their own unique combinations of identities and experiences.

Sometimes people feel stuck in old patterns of behavior and weighed down by previous negative experiences.

I am able to provide psychological evaluations for bariatric surgeries and clinical support through the process of weight loss, changes in life style and relationship with food. I understand that every person is unique in their needs. I tailor my approach to each individual needs and focus on mind and body connection as well relationship with food and its effect on mood and energy.

Hey - I'm Mike and as you can see from my photo I like to keep things on the more casual side with my clients. I weave fun, jokes, and genuine questions about your personal life into our care plan. If you're looking for a Psychiatric provider who is all business - I'm probably not the right fit. But if you're looking to work with someone who is down to earth, and willing to go the extra mile to be your true partner and confidant on this journey, I'd love to meet you. As a lifelong New Yorker, I understand the unique pressures, pace, and complexity of life here — and I use that insight to offer care that actually fits your world.

Do you have pain from the past or worries about the future that make it difficult to enjoy the present? Are you facing a life transition and are unsure about how to process the changes? As a licensed therapist I can help you work through these concerns and more. Our work together in therapy can translate to your life in multiple ways including facing challenging emotions, improving self-esteem, enhancing relationships, and building communication skills / learning to establish healthy boundaries.

Hello, and welcome. I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in New York State and a Credentialed Alcoholism and Substance Abuse Counselor (CASAC) with experience supporting individuals across the lifespan.

I earned my Master of Social Work (MSW) from the University of North Dakota, as well as a Master’s degree in Social Policy. My professional experience includes working with a wide range of populations, including young children, adolescents, adults, and older adults in both school and community settings.

Throughout my career, I have helped clients address concerns such as anxiety, depression, stress, life transitions, behavioral challenges, and substance use issues. My approach is collaborative, supportive, and tailored to each individual’s unique needs and goals. I strive to create a safe, respectful, and non-judgmental environment where clients feel comfortable exploring challenges and developing practical strategies for positive change.

I believe therapy works best when it is goal-oriented, compassionate, and grounded in practical tools that help people build resilience and improve their overall well-being.

Therapy has the potential to be a transformative experience. I have found people realize the benefit of therapy when they learn how to communicate and advocate for themselves compassionately, practice setting better boundaries, love themselves and others more fully, start to listen to their feelings as teachers and compasses pointing to important lessons, and when they begin to trust themselves as they are, to live authentically and unapologetically. Therapy with me is informed by Social Justice, Allyship, Anti-Racism and is Affirming of all Identities, including, Neurodivergent, Sexual, and Gender.

I am very open minded, transparent, and approachable. My specialty is empowering you to overcome barriers that make your ideal life seem impossible.

Thank you for taking the time to consider me as part of your wellness journey and for being bold enough to take action towards a better life. Whether you are seriously struggling or just want help to make some adjustments to improve your overall wellness, it would be an honor to walk with you as you plan and begin living your ideal life.

Do you have dreams of a happier and healthier lifestyle? Do you know what you want in life but feel stuck due to past traumatic experiences, stress, anxiety, or self esteem issues?

I work with young women on life issues that have become too heavy to manage on their own.

We'll use therapy to identify past experiences that has impacted your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. You'll replace those negative narratives that leave you feeling stuck with a positive and motivating outlook and work towards a plan that is attainable and unique to your personal goals.

Sis you deserve healing! You matter!

Wellness is only sessions away...
