Frequently Asked Questions

Interpersonal dependency describes the emotional and relational templates we develop early in life. For example, how we connect, depend, protect ourselves, and seek closeness. When these patterns get stuck, they can make relationships feel confusing or overwhelming, even when we’re highly capable in other areas of life. Because this is my clinical specialty, I help you recognize these patterns quickly and safely, and we use our work together as a space to shift them in real time. This depth of expertise makes treatment more accurate, more efficient, and ultimately more transformative.

Psychodynamic therapy looks at the “why” behind your emotional patterns: why you feel anxious in certain situations, repeat dynamics in relationships, or struggle to fully relax and feel enough. By understanding these deeper layers, you gain more freedom, confidence, and choice in your life. People who benefit most are those who sense that their struggles have roots they can’t quite articulate and want a safe, thoughtful space to explore them. This work is collaborative, insight-driven, and designed for meaningful, long-term change.

The office is located at 1115 Broadway (also known as 16 Madison West), at the intersection of Broadway and 25th Street in the Flatiron District. The building sits just to the right of the large Porcelanosa building and close to Eataly. Madison Square Park is directly across the street, and the office is located within the pedestrian triangle where Broadway and Fifth Avenue split. 

The office is easily accessible by public transportation. The closest subway stop is 23rd Street (R or W trains), just a few minutes’ walk away. When exiting the station, walk toward Madison Square Park and Broadway—Eataly will be a helpful landmark along the way.

You can also use the 23rd Street (F train) on the Sixth Avenue line, or the 23rd Street (1 train) on Seventh Avenue, which is a slightly longer but still manageable walk.

Several MTA bus lines stop nearby, including the M1, M2, M3, M34A-SBS, and M55.
