Therapy can help you find relief from distress and free up the “stuck” places in your life, the ways of relating to yourself and others that can feel self-defeating, limiting or out of your control. This can lead to distress that may come in many forms: anxiety, anger, emptiness, detachment. Yet these experiences are not only a source of suffering, they are also a message that speaks to desires, conflicts, and pain. Together, we work to understand all this and place it in the context of wher...

In the wise words of author Sharon Salzberg, "If I opened my heart and mind big enough to take in the suffering...
Calling all stressed-out, anxious Jewish college students! You’re figuring out who you are—while juggling exams, dating apps, and the gnawing feeling that the world is falling apart.

Therapy can be a place to bring your spiraling thoughts, perfectionism, existential dread, and hope for the future. You des...

You’re familiar with the exhausting cycle of being a perfectionistic people-pleaser, caught in overthinking and self-criticism.
