About Michael
As a seasoned licensed therapist in New York, I bring nearly four decades of professional experience supporting individuals through complex emotional landscapes. My practice specializes in addressing mood disorders, depression, anxiety, schizophrenia, developmental disorders, autism, social challenges, substance abuse and addictions, existential issues, and life transitions. My therapeutic approach is compassionate and structured, drawing from extensive clinical expertise in depression, anxiety disorders, stress and anger management, and neurodevelopmental conditions. I create a supportive environment where clients can explore challenging emotions, develop coping strategies, and work towards meaningful personal growth. My approaches include cognitive behavioral therapy, existential therapy, client centered therapy, mindfulness therapy, and applied behavior analysis. I look forward to working with you.
