Something uncomfortable brought you here. You may have tried to move forward and found that something still lingers. You understand what’s going on, but it hasn’t shifted in a meaningful way. My clients come ready to do real work. I meet each person as a whole person, not as a diagnosis or as a presenting problem. I work primarily with adults and young adults, using EMDR alongside CBT and solution-focused and person-centered approaches that support real change. Our focus is on what hasn’t moved and why, so you’re not just managing symptoms but creating genuine, lasting movement forward. If you have done the talking and still do not feel free, I would love to connect.
I believe therapy begins with creating a genuine connection, a foundation of trust, understanding, and openness. I also know how important it is to find a therapist you truly ‘click’ with; someone whose style and personality feel like the right fit for you. Over the past 15 years in the mental health field, including 5 years in private practice, I’ve had the privilege of supporting people through challenges such as anxiety, depression, body dysmorphia, OCD, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and the everyday stressors of family, relationships, work, and life.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in New York State and a certified Trauma-Informed Care provider from NYU. I'm an open-minded, nonjudgmental clinician who meets you where you are. As an LCSW in New York and a NYU-certified trauma-informed care provider, i focus on empowering adults to build on their strengths and take practical steps towards their goals.
I am a board certified psychiatric nurse practitioner and I offer psychiatric services through Telehealth, allowing clients to attend appointments from the comfort and privacy of their own space.
Starting mental health care can feel overwhelming, and many people seek support when they feel stressed, stuck, or unsure how to cope. I provide a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where you can speak openly. Together, we’ll work to understand your challenges and develop strategies that support healing, resilience, and lasting emotional well-being.
Hi there! I am a Board Certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner with a focus on medication management and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT).
I’ve had the privilege of working with a wide range of people, from adolescents and college students to professionals and older adults. I’ve gained experience helping individuals navigate challenges like depression, anxiety, PTSD, OCD, Bipolar Disorder, and psychosis.
I am a certified SIPS (Structured Interview for Psychosis-Risk Syndromes) assessor through Yale PRIME Psychosis Risk Clinic. Additionally, I hold a Post-Master's Certificate in Advanced Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) from NYU and completed my Integrated Substance Use Disorder Training Program (ISTP) from NYU Langone Health.
I am a dual-certified Family Nurse Practitioner and Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner providing care to adolescents and adults through a warm, holistic, and evidence-based approach. I completed my Family Nurse Practitioner training at Long Island University and later advanced my training with a post master’s certification in psychiatric mental health at Liberty University. My background across urgent care and outpatient settings has allowed me to care for a wide range of conditions, while recognizing the strong connection between physical health, anxiety, depression, and overall emotional well-being.
I work with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, mood disorders, trauma-related concerns, stress, and life transitions, including those managing both medical and mental health conditions. I provide comprehensive psychiatric evaluations and medication management, while also creating a supportive space where you feel heard, respected, and understood. My goal is to help you feel more stable, clear, and in control of your mental health.
I cannot move mountains for you, but I can help you climb. Facing fears, healing from loss, finding meaning and joy - these are the inevitable tasks of life. Therapy may be your first step or your last resort. Often people avoid it all together because they believe their pain is too great, worry they will be judged or that their situation is too complicated. Some people believe they should solve problems on their own or only with family and friends. However, while family and friends may want the best for us, they often come with opinions or past hurts. Sometimes it helps to have a safe space outside your daily experience.
Hi, I’m Peter, and I’m really glad you’re here! I believe therapy should feel safe, supportive, and human — not intimidating or clinical. I have training in Mental Health Counseling and experience supporting people with trauma, anxiety, depression,ADHD, relationship challenges, and major life transitions. I work at a pace that feels right for you, and my goal is to create a space where you feel heard, understood, and never judged — just supported as you work toward feeling better.
