I’ll Help You Become the Author of Your Own Story
Issues from your past can make you feel like you’re not in control of your own life. You can feel like a victim rather than the agent of your future. As an experienced and trained Childhood Emotional Neglect (CEN) therapist and psychodynamic counselor, I can give you the tools to change unwanted behaviors and beliefs so you can gain agency in your daily decisions and come to understand your true self better.
While I’m happy to help you in any area you may be struggling with, my specialties include:
- Childhood Emotional Neglect
- Attachment Issues
- Anxiety
- Individuals Getting Divorced or Separated
- Introvert Struggles
- Individuals transitioning into adulthood
No matter what you’re dealing with, I’ll help you develop the tools and strategies you need to make positive changes in your life and move forward confidently with a deeper understanding of self.
Move Forward With Me As Your CEN Therapist in New York and Beyond
What happened in your childhood has impacted who you are as an adult. That includes abuse and mistreatment. But it also includes something you can’t physically see – emotional neglect. And if you’ve experienced it, you need a professional to help you work through the damage it’s caused.
Emotional neglect as a child can come in many forms, including, but not limited to, the following:
- not setting needed boundaries and rules
- invalidating or ignoring your emotions
- allowing behavioral problems to continue without discipline
- being emotionally absent from you
- not supporting you emotionally during times of difficulty
- refusing to show you affection, even when you ask for it
If you’ve experienced CEN, you likely have trouble understanding or trusting your own emotions and those of others. This severely impacts all relationships, including the one you have with yourself. As a result, you may feel empty, lonely, unfulfilled, disconnected, and struggling with attachment issues.
As your trained CEN therapist and online counselor, I’ll closely examine the system in which you were brought up and how you’ve adapted in adulthood. Of course, we’ll have to explore some of your past family of origin, but most of the work we do together will focus on helping you gain the tools and awareness you need to feel good about the choices you make for yourself.
What to Expect When Working With Me As Your Online Counselor

I provide warm and compassionate online therapy and counseling to individuals ready to move past their hurt and into the life they want and deserve.
