My journey to becoming a clinical psychologist began with a deep curiosity about people and relationships, sparked by challenging family dynamics. I sought to understand how relationships work through extensive research, theoretical study, assessment, and practical experience with family dynamics, defense mechanisms, and emotional responses. I did this through formal education, training in Columbia University and the Derner School of Advanced Psychology at Adelphi University. I have also published in areas of father abandonment, sense of oneself, and relationships. I am born and raised in New York City and have done my training throughout NYC. I relocated to Boca Raton, Florida a few years ago where I see private clients in New York and Florida.

My career spans diverse settings, including inpatient hospitals, community mental health, foster care, and private practice. These experiences have deepened my empathy and understanding of people, fueling my passion for helping others navigate their relationships and traumas and empowering them to reshape their narratives for future generations.
