History

Established in 2012.

I graduated from the Engineering and Management departments at NYU Polytechnic (Brooklyn Poly) and Medicine program at Universidad Central Del Este with an MD and BS/​MS. I did post-​graduate research in Post-​Operative Memory at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, then did residency training in General Psychiatry at New York Medical College, and furthered my training with a Fellowship in Child and Adolescent Psychiatry at the University of Arizona College of Medicine. After training, I worked as an Emergency and Inpatient Psychiatrist at St Joseph’s Medical Center, as well as an outpatient community psychiatrist with the New York Psychotherapy and Counseling Center. I held parallel positions as staff psychiatrist at the Jewish Board and YAI/​Premier Healthcare where I had the opportunity to help individuals across a wide range of cultural, age and life difficulty categories. Since 2012, I have been working in private practice along with community and international psychiatry.

I will try to understand you and we will develop a treatment plan best suited to your needs. My goal is to bring hope to my clients, and help them understand and cope better with the people and life situations associated with the onset of their symptoms. I am a board-​certified child, adolescent and adult psychiatrist who specializes in different forms of psychotherapy – cognitive behavioral (CBT), interpersonal (IPT), psychodynamic, and supportive therapy – in addition to pharmacology to augment psychotherapy only when the need arises. I can communicate effectively in Spanish, French and Portuguese, and enjoy a diverse, multicultural client base.

I maintain a private clinical practice in Greenpoint, Brooklyn and the East Village in Manhattan. It’s helpful to first speak on the phone and then to meet in person so you can share your hopes and goals and decide the best way to move forward.
