About My Practice:
My practice has 2 distinct areas of concentration:
Muse In Action: Coaching for Creative Professionals is aimed at "helping right-brained thinkers create their rightful place in a left brained world" I draw on my expertise as a Licensed Creative Arts Therapist and my Coaching training with Mentorcoach to partner with clients to pursue their true passion by developing a realistic attainable plan of action, providing support & step by step strategies until the goal is reached. I can also provide virtual groups via teleconference to coach clients with similar goals. My work is positive and success oriented.
Dante Clinical Consultation & Psychotherapy Services
I am available for consultation and for short term solution based psychotherapy. My approach to treatment is holistic and client centered and focused on client strengths with an emphasis on mind body techniques. As a Qualified Clinical Social Worker I have worked with a wide variety of clients both in-patient & outpatient (with individuals, groups & families) I also have many years of work in educational settings as I am a Nationally Certified School Social Work Specialist. My training incorporates dance/movement therapy, hypnotherapy and chi therapy which is particularly helpful for clients in trauma recovery or struggling with body image issues.
Early in life I was drawn to the arts, had a strong interest in the field of healing and in community service. In college, I started off as a Psychology major, but, ultimately , I achieved my B.S. degree in 1984 from New York University completing my studies in Dance Education and Dance/Movement therapy.

About My Practice:
I see children, adolescents and adults in individual, couple, group or play therapy. I am a trained a client-centered, play, cognitive-behavior, and group therapist. I also completed my training as a modern psychoanalyst. I trained in so many approaches because I believe it is important to find the right modality or combination of modalities for each person, there is no such thing as one method fits all. Together, you and I, will figure out what works best for you.
I have found that group therapy provides a tremendous asset to individual therapy, thus at this point I run a variety of groups: a children's group, a preadolescent group, an adolescent group, a young adult group, adult groups, a rape/sexual abuse victim support group, parent support group, and a supervision group. I truly love my work!
I am an internationally trained psychologist, licensed in New York and Germany, a certified group therapist, a NY certified school psychologist, a NAAP certified psychoanalyst, a German board certified psychodynamic psychologist both for adults, and children and adolescents.
In my 20 years of private practice in the Hudson Valley, I have treated hundreds of adults, children and adolescents and conducted innumerable psycho-educational evaluations and accompanied many parents to the various Child Study or Committee of Special Education meetings.
