About Todd

As a licensed therapist in New York, I bring nearly two decades of professional experience supporting individuals through complex emotional landscapes. My practice centers on helping clients navigate challenges like depression, anxiety, relationship dynamics, and workplace stress. I specialize in addressing social isolation, communication barriers, and personal growth challenges.

My therapeutic approach is deeply compassionate and tailored to each individual’s unique journey. I’m particularly committed to creating an affirming, supportive environment for LGBTQ+ clients and those seeking a progressive, non-religious therapeutic space. Whether you’re struggling with social anxiety, processing grief, or working through relationship transitions, I offer skilled, empathetic guidance.

I believe in empowering clients to develop stronger self-understanding, more effective communication strategies, and healthier emotional patterns. My goal is to walk alongside you as you build resilience, cultivate self-love, and create meaningful personal transformation.
