Virtual & in-person • New York


“Real change, enduring change, happens one step at a time.” – Ruth Bader Ginsburg

Hello. My Name is Kahli. I am a qualified mental health professional.

I provide therapy to adults and children.

I specialize in helping women to get through challenging life transitions.

Using an eclectic mix of evidence-based treatments, common sense and humor, I provide individual therapy, pre-marital and marital counseling.

My training and experience in mental health treatment, child welfare, criminal justice and domestic violence prevention give me a unique perspective as a helping professional.

I help my clients to discover and build upon their own inner strengths and resources. I believe in forming a strong & trusting partnership with my clients to make them feel comfortable, understood & confident in their lives. I provide helpful, honest counseling both virtually and in person.

Contact me for a free 15-minute telephone consultation. My first goal is to help you to determine if we are a good match. If we are, then we will create a plan of action that will guide our work together.

"Most insurances are accepted"

My journey to becoming a mental health provider developed out of an interest in human behaviors; specifically, how our present relationships are influenced by early attachments. After completing several degrees from New York University and further postgraduate psychoanalytic training, my clinical work in a variety of outpatient settings led me to a deeper understanding of the importance of individualized care for each person. I concluded that the creation of a safe space for clients in navigating their mental health journeys is an imperative for my continued professional work as a mental health

specialist.

As a provider I continue to follow advances in psychodynamic, psychoanalytic and evidence based practice research.
