I am a licensed clinical social worker in New York with 35 years of professional experience. I have specialized training and skills to help clients cope with many different mental health conditions. Some of these include depression, anxiety, panic disorder, schizophrenia or bi-polar disorder. I also work with people with Tourette’s Syndrome and/or Harm OCD. My work experience includes many years of in-patient as well as emergency and out-patient treatment services for adults of all ages. One of my other sub-specialty areas is geriatrics and helping older individuals and families deal with the challenges of aging while remaining independent in their communities. Finally, I have much experience working in the area of substance abuse and eating disorders, with the individual or family. I believe everyone deserves a therapist who will treat them with respect. Each client will receive treatment formulated to their special situation. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy takes courage! I’m glad you have taken this step and I look forward to meeting you.
