In my practice, I am dedicated to offering a highly personalized and compassionate experience. I offer up-to-date and effective help for children, adolescents, and adults. The atmosphere is professional yet welcoming, and my dog Lily can often be found at the office.
After receiving my masters and doctorate degrees in psychology from Yeshiva University in New York City, I moved to Tampa in 2000. While in New York, I worked in schools, hospitals, and private practice. I also completed 2 years of additional training in adult psychodynamic psychotherapy through the Tampa Bay Psychoanalytic Society.
I recently completed a formal post doctorate certificate in Clinical Neuropsychology to better understand and treat the connections between behavior, learning and brain functioning. The program was based in New York City and met one weekend per month for two years.
