As a neuropsychologist at NYU Langone, I am dedicated to providing comprehensive and compassionate care to my patients. My approach is centered on understanding the unique needs of individuals and tailoring treatments to support their overall well-being.

I specialize in the assessment and treatment of concussion, traumatic brain injury, and psychological adjustment to illness, particularly in the areas of multiple sclerosis, oncology, and vestibular disorders. My expertise includes conducting neuropsychological and psychological evaluations, as well as providing psychotherapy and cognitive remediation. I am able to provide evaluations and therapy in English and Spanish.

With extensive experience in the field, I have had the privilege of supervising within the Rusk Psychology Internship Program. My work has been recognized at national conferences, where I have presented on multicultural issues in psychotherapy supervision and treatment. Additionally, I have contributed to the academic community through various publications in peer-reviewed journals, including a paper on existential–humanistic and relational psychotherapy during COVID-19 for patients with pre-existing medical conditions.

I earned my doctoral degree at Yeshiva University’s Ferkauf Graduate School of Psychology, and further honed my skills through a postdoctoral fellowship in Advanced Rehabilitation Research Training (AART) at Rusk Rehabilitation. My initial inspiration to pursue a career in neuropsychology stemmed from a desire to make a meaningful impact on the lives of individuals facing complex medical and psychological challenges. This motivation continues to drive my commitment to helping patients navigate their health journeys with resilience and hope.
