Welcome!

If you have come to this website, it is because you are about to make a major decision. You have arrived at a time in your life when you feel the need to make some important changes. You are considering starting therapy. I am committed to use my experience, empathy, and knowledge to facilitate this process and accompany you on this journey.

I am a New York State licensed psychologist with extensive clinical experience. Swiss-born, English/French bilingual, I was a professional dancer with the Martha Graham Dance Company before earning my Ph.D. from Teacher’s College, Columbia University, in 2001.
