I am a Licensed Clinical Social worker with a Masters Degree from New York University. I have been in private practice in Midtown Manhattan for over 20 years. For many years while developing my practice, I worked at several addiction treatment programs, Employee Assistance Program for American Express and at Student Health Services at the New School for Social Research. I have done extensive training in Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy (EFT) which is very effective in working with all types of couples. With Individual clients I usually use a technique called EMDR which is a cutting edge way of processing and clearing trauma, treat depression and anxiety and general crisis. However, with individual clients I also work in more traditional ways such as supportive and insight-oriented. With both individuals and couples I also use mindfulness and some meditative techniques, depending on the clients. I see most of my clients in person, but also do phone sessions as well as sessions by SKYPE when necessary and appropriate. I speak Russian and do therapy with clients in Russian when necessary and have a good grasp of many other cultures based on my personal experience and years of working with people from all cultures. I invite you to look at my website to get a better sense of who I am and what I do to help people.
