Override Hero Title

With the use of therapy or medication I can treat you or your child so that impairments can be identified and the ability to function more easily is achieved.

My training allows me to diagnose and give treatment recommendations based on my assessment which consists of an evaluation gathering personal history, psychosocial and environmental stressors, and symptom review. I can help you understand the diagnosis and determine the cause of the difficulty with the use of medication or psychotherapy.

I am a double Board Certified Psychiatrist with Specialty Fellowship training in Child and Adolescent Psychiatry. I completed my Adult Residency Training and Child and Adolescent Fellowship training at North Shore Long Island Jewish Hospital affiliated with Albert Einstein College of Medicine in 2009 and 2011 respectively.

My name is Elizabeth (or Liz) and I am looking forward to meeting with you. I was born and raised in New York, growing up in Queens and Long Island and living for several years in the Hudson Valley. I went to college at SUNY New Paltz (upstate New York) and graduate school at Columbia University (New York City). Just like my experiences growing up and living in the city, countryside and suburban towns, I have a lot of experience working with both adults and children ranging from traumatic experiences, to challenging decisions. I have worked in community, inpatient, outpatient and hospital settings.

I am a licensed mental health counselor with over ten years of clinical experience. In my practice, I work with adults and couples of diverse backgrounds. I am a sex-positive therapist and familiar with LGBTQA issues.

I have experience working with depression, anxiety, trauma and PTSD, cultural and immigration difficulties, identity issues as well as relational difficulties and conflicts.

I’m warm, direct, and deeply empathetic, with a style that balances compassion and honesty.

I’m a licensed therapist who specializes in working with adults healing from childhood trauma, emotional neglect, and attachment wounds. If you’re struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship patterns that feel hard to break, or a persistent sense of not feeling “good enough,” you’re not alone—and therapy can help.

Welcome!

Mental well-being is a top priority because it is the key that opens the door to a happy, healthy, and stable life. Life can be full of unpredictable circumstances and events that leave us feeling overwhelmed, frustrated, stressed, anxious, or depressed. Experiencing one, or all, of these starts to negatively impact critical areas such as sleep, work, self-motivation, personal relationships, or lead us to start engage in unhealthy outlets. It also makes us feel all alone and emotionally trapped. Reaching out for help can initially feel uneasy and it is a difficult task, but be proud of yourself that you are taking that first step! I have over 20 years of clinical experience working with clients aged 13 to 75 with a main focus on working for you, your needs, and how to achieve your goals to live a happy, healthy, and stable life. Specialty areas include anxiety disorders, depression, mood disorders, Acute and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, relationships, couples/marital counseling, sexual issues, employees of law enforcement agencies, and forensic based testing.

Have you experienced past or present trauma that may be hindering your personal growth and getting in the way of your goals? We all have struggled in dealing with painful situations, but we no longer have to struggle alone.

As the saying goes, "The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step" - Lao Tzu. Let me help you take that first step towards becoming a better you!

I specialize in treating depression, anxiety, trauma, substance use, relationship issues and bereavement utilizing the following therapeutic approaches such as psycho-dynamic therapy, insight oriented therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, solution focused therapy modalities, EMDR, motivational interviewing, and grievance therapy.
