Welcome. I’m an individual, couples and group therapist, offering sessions in person in downtown Brooklyn, NY. I offer 30 years of experience in the field. I’m also a professor of Exercise Science and Psychology.

I would like to encourage men to consider interpersonal group therapy. Men need and want what we all want, that is to feel connected. No tools to learn, handbooks to read, no feelings to ‘manage’ or ‘regulate’. Thoughts and feelings are not bad or good, they provide information about dynamics, current and past. Consultations regarding membership in this diverse, inclusive, in person, Downtown Brooklyn group, is free of charge.

I’m a licensed psychologist specialized in working with men who are overwhelmed, stuck, and just doing their best to survive. I see how hard you’re trying. I can help you get relief, feel reconnected to your purpose, and show up fully for your loved ones. If you’ve opened up in the past and felt judged or misunderstood, or you’re nervous about starting therapy for the first time, I’ll make sure you feel comfortable.
In our sessions, you will feel truly understood and accepted by me, especially for the parts of yourself you’ve had to hide underground for so long. You’ll find that our work translates into greater self-esteem, improved ability to cope with any and all emotions, and better communication with the people who matter most to you.
I know you’re used to handling things alone or just muscling through. Let’s work together to try something new. When you reach out, I’ll respond within a day to schedule a free consultation. I am currently accepting clients for virtual therapy in New York & Florida.

For men who are used to being in control, anxiety can feel like something to push past rather than address. But ignoring it doesn’t make it go away. It often builds up over time, impacting your focus, relationships, and overall well-being. I help high-achieving men break out of stress and overthinking, work with emotions in a way that feels productive, and regain a sense of confidence and control.
