Social anxiety goes beyond normal nervousness—it can significantly limit your career, relationships, and life experiences. I provide specialized treatment that addresses the fear of judgment and negative evaluation that fuels social anxiety.

Yonkers is Westchester County's largest city and one of the most economically and racially diverse communities in the New York metro area — a city where affluent riverfront neighborhoods and post-industrial working-class areas exist in close proximity, generating a broad and complex therapy demand. The city's large Black, Latino, and immigrant communities sit alongside a growing professional population drawn by lower costs than Manhattan, and therapists here work across a wide spectrum of presenting concerns from economic stress and community trauma to corporate burnout and life transitions. St. John's Riverside Hospital and St. Joseph's Medical Center provide institutional mental health resources, while Yonkers's proximity to New York City gives residents access to the broader metro therapy ecosystem. The city's ongoing economic transformation — driven by waterfront development — has created gentrification-related tensions that increasingly find their way into clinical work.
