Description
I'm looking to expand my practice and hire two full-time postdoctoral fellows for positions beginning in the fall of 2025. The positions will be virtual/ hybrid and require a 2-year commitment.
About Me
I am a New York, New Jersey, and Washington DC licensed clinical psychologist, supervisor, and doctoral professor. I work with individual adults and couples who are experiencing distress due to mood fluctuations, changing life circumstances, difficult relationships, and uncertain identity. My therapeutic approach stems from a predominantly psychodynamic perspective and I have developed a clinical voice that incorporates humor, metaphor, and authenticity, believing that when clinicians are authentically themselves in sessions, the therapeutic relationship thrives.
I encourage my students and supervisees to balance developing their own voice with nurturing the evolution of the therapeutic relationship. Supervision requires a high degree of self-awareness and ongoing consideration of various therapeutic variables, including cultural case formulations, intersectionality, transference and countertransference, and the limitations and possibilities within our roles as clinicians. It also involves exploring boundary setting, the mechanics of private practice, taking leave, and the importance of continued education and collaboration.
Since launching my own practice, I emphasize the importance of finding and becoming part of communities of peers within our field. The supportive and compassionate environment we cultivate with our patients should also extend to our fellow clinicians, creating a mutually rewarding experience. My hope is that this training experience is the beginning of one of those communities.

About Us
At All of You Therapy, we know what it’s like to be the therapist who wants more—more depth, more challenge, more connection. That’s why this practice was built:
- A culture of depth. We don’t do “just enough” therapy. We track what’s happening in the room—the nervous system shifts, implicit memories, and somatic markers that reveal themselves in session.
- Case consultations that push you. These aren’t surface-level check-ins. They’re deep dives that sharpen your instincts and make you a more attuned, impactful clinician.
- Clients who are ready for the work. No symptom-chasing. No “let’s just get through the session” energy. Just clients committed to transformation—including adults working to break generational cycles.
- A practice that invests in you. Your development isn’t optional—it’s built into the culture. Expect advanced training, ongoing consultation, and leadership that pushes you toward your next level.
- A caseload that fuels you. You’re not just assigned clients at random. You’re thoughtfully matched with the work that aligns with your strengths and clinical passion.
- The tools to do deep work. No scrambling. No improvising. Just a fully stocked therapy space with art supplies, sand tray miniatures, and neurobiologically informed resources—so you can go as deep as the work requires.
Who You Are:
- A highly skilled and deeply invested therapist who takes this work seriously.
- Trained (or currently pursuing training in) in attachment-focused, experiential, and bottom-up modalities (IFS, AEDP, EMDR, DDP, Coherence Therapy, Somatic Experiencing, etc.).
- Someone who has done their own therapy—who understands deeply the vulnerability it takes to show up "on the other side of the couch."
- A therapist who geeks out on therapy—who has opinions about models, annotates their books, and can’t sit through a movie without clocking the protagonist’s attachment style.
- Values consultation and community. You want to work alongside other clinicians who are as invested as you are.
What You’ll Gain:
- True clinical depth. Work in a practice where you can be fully present with clients—not rushing, not managing a revolving door, but doing meaningful work that changes lives.
- High-level supervision. No vague feedback. No “just trust the process.” You’ll receive targeted, attuned supervision that challenges and refines your clinical skills.
- A team that speaks your language. You’ll be surrounded by colleagues who also track nervous system shifts, attachment ruptures, and somatic cues—so you’re not carrying the weight of this work alone.
- A practice that prioritizes your growth. Your development isn’t just encouraged—it’s expected. We invest in advanced training, challenging case consults, and ongoing education.
- A sustainable caseload. You won’t be overwhelmed with clients who aren’t the right fit. You’ll work with people who match your expertise and clinical passion
