About
| Biography | I am a licensed psychologist in New York state. I graduated from Pace University’s combined Psy.D. program in school-clinical psychology, with a specialization in child psychology. I have been a member of the undergraduate psychology department at Mercy College, and the doctoral psychology department at Pace University. I am currently the clinical director of Younger Psychology, PLLC. The practice provides a wide range of assessments and therapeutic interventions for diverse populations of infants, children, adults, and families. I conduct infant/child assessments and collaborate with parents and attorneys in the development of access schedules and parenting plans. I also conduct child custody and psychological evaluations. I have extensive experience working with high-conflict parents and serve as a parenting coordinator, parent consultant, family therapist, and reunification therapist. I perform these functions for families involved in Family and Supreme Courts of Nassau County, Kings County, Queens County, and New York County. |
| Services | Younger Psychology is conveniently located in two NY locations – Garden City, Long Island and Midtown Manhattan. We offer a host of family and forensic services, based on years of extensive experience working with children and adults. Our services include Parenting Coordination for high-conflict families; psychotherapeutic treatment services, such as individual therapy, couples therapy, family therapy, and collateral sessions; and specialized interventions to reintegrate estranged/alienated parents with children, such as therapeutic visitation targeting parental skill development, child adjustment and well-being. In addition, we work closely with Family and Supreme Courts, as well as attorneys, to provide thorough and comprehensive infant, child, psychological, substance use, and forensic family assessments. The results are used to generate psycho-legal decisions, parenting plans, parental access monitoring protocols, and treatment plans. As such, we facilitate settlement conferences to assist families with designing a creative, individualized access schedule that meets the needs of their family. We also consult with attorneys regarding mental health issues and provide psychological research, analysis, and perspective. |
