About Me

A Harvard graduate with advanced degrees in Economics, Marriage and Family Therapy, and Mental Health Counseling, and decades of experience working with high-profile philanthropic families, I work with complete discretion to help individuals live their greatest lives, couples rekindle romance, and families to strengthen bonds, improve communication, and collaborate efficiently and with loving-kindness and mutual respect.

I specialize in helping you navigate complex and sometimes toxic relationships, feelings of betrayal, shame, guilt, trauma, self-doubt, self-criticism, anxiety, LGBTQI+, Jewish, and intermarriage issues. During our initial sessions, we will delve deeply into the issues at hand and collaborate to create a plan for addressing them that allows you to move toward thriving relationships, greater self- esteem and resiliency, and personal growth.

I am deeply committed to helping individuals, couples, and families navigate life’s most painful journeys and realizations. I believe each person’s story is unique, and I tailor my approach to create a safe, supportive space where you can uncover your strengths, explore your goals, desires, dreams, and fantasies, resolve conflicts, and foster growth. Together, we’ll explore the intricate dynamics of your true self, whom you most want to be, complex relationships, and develop strategies to cultivate deeper connections, emotional

I specialize in working with individuals who face extraordinary demands on their time, privacy, and emotional resources. My approach balances clinical expertise with an in-depth understanding of the unique pressures, responsibilities, and lifestyle factors that accompany wealth, leadership, and public visibility.

Confidentiality is paramount. I follow strict professional and ethical guidelines, and I implement additional measures such as secure digital record-keeping, private consultation settings, and flexible scheduling options to ensure that our work together remains discreet and protected.

Common concerns include stress management, performance anxiety, decision-making under pressure, relationship and family dynamics, legacy planning, and navigating the psychological impact of being in the public eye. My goal is to provide solutions that promote mental wellness and interpersonal harmony in these high-stakes contexts.

Yes. My background and clinical training allow me to blend therapeutic interventions with executive coaching techniques. This integrated approach helps clients overcome emotional barriers while refining leadership styles, improving communication, and optimizing performance in both personal and professional arenas.

I draw from evidence-based modalities—such as Gottman Couples Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Psychodynamic Therapy, and Mindfulness-Based Interventions, as well as Collaborative Therapy, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and Emotionally Focused Therapy — tailoring each method to meet the specific needs and personality of my clients. This flexible, results-driven process allows for effective, personalized care.

Therapy is typically for those looking to resolve deeper emotional or psychological issues, past traumas, or mental health issues. Coaching is more forward-focused, concentrating on goal-setting, performance enhancement, and behavioral changes. During an initial consultation, we’ll clarify your objectives and determine the best approach.

Clients often report improved emotional well-being, better stress resilience, enhanced performance under pressure, and stronger relationships. We will work collaboratively to set specific goals and regularly evaluate progress to ensure meaningful, measurable results.

The duration varies based on individual goals and challenges. Some clients begin noticing changes in a few sessions, while others require longer-term engagement to address complex issues. We will discuss a tailored timeline during our initial consultation.

I offer a range of flexible scheduling options, including early morning and late evening appointments, as well as weekend availability in some cases. I also provide virtual sessions to accommodate clients who travel or have global commitments.

High-profile families often face unique stressors related to trust, inheritance, and intergenerational transitions. I use specialized approaches to help family members develop communication strategies, conflict resolution skills, and emotional support systems that preserve both relationships and legacy.

I focus on creating a safe space for both partners to express their concerns openly and honestly. We explore how various power dynamics can affect communication, conflict, and intimacy, and work together to build mutual understanding and equitable decision-making processes.

I collaborate with clients to identify triggers and develop personalized stress-management techniques, including mindfulness training, cognitive restructuring, and lifestyle adjustments. My goal is to help you maintain peak performance while prioritizing well-being.

Your privacy and comfort are top priorities. We’ll address anxiety or depression using effective, evidence-based practices. My practice safeguards confidentiality through secure systems and discreet office arrangements, so you can seek help without concern for external judgment or publicity.

Absolutely. We can delve into emotional intelligence, conflict resolution, communication strategies, and team-building approaches. Enhanced self-awareness and interpersonal skills often translate directly into stronger, more empathetic leadership and a healthier workplace culture.

Yes. Intensive sessions or brief retreats can be arranged to accommodate demanding schedules and deliver focused interventions. These allow for concentrated work on specific goals or immediate challenges over shorter periods.

I use secure, HIPAA-compliant video conferencing software to conduct telehealth sessions. This ensures high levels of privacy and convenience for clients who may be traveling, live outside of my geographic area, or simply prefer meeting online.

I facilitate open dialogue in a structured, nonjudgmental setting. By exploring each family member’s perspectives and emotional investments, I help identify shared values and goals. We then develop strategies that foster respect, understanding, and sustainable resolutions.

With the client’s permission and when it’s beneficial, I can work in a coordinated care and collaborative environment with a trusted network of advisors. This multidisciplinary approach ensures comprehensive care that addresses both financial, emotional, and psychological well-being.

Start by scheduling an initial consultation or discovery call. We’ll discuss your goals, concerns, and the logistics of scheduling. Together, we’ll determine if it’s an appropriate fit and set up a plan to move forward
