Meet Ruth, a psychotherapist based in New York City. Known for her warm and approachable style, she works with individuals, couples, and families to address a wide range of concerns, from eating disorders and anxiety to life transitions and relationship challenges.

 

Ruth wears many hats—therapist, partner, friend, boss, daughter, client, and colleague—and each role offers a different perspective, enriching the way she understands and relates to the people she works with. Her path has taken her from the fast-paced worlds of hospitals and community clinics and ultimately to her life’s work in clinical practice. These experiences give her a unique lens on the complexities of identity, self-worth, and resilience, especially for those navigating demanding careers, major life transitions, and the pressures of public-facing roles.

 

She began her clinical career with a deep commitment to supporting individuals struggling with eating disorders—a passion that led her to work extensively in crisis case management, and with families navigating complex relational dynamics. These formative experiences shaped her trauma-informed, integrative approach to care and laid the foundation for her broader specialization in adult ADHD, mood and anxiety disorders, and trauma. Over time, her practice has expanded to meet the evolving needs of her clients, always centering self-worth as the foundation for lasting change.

 

Known for her supportive yet firm approach, Ruth combines insight with practicality, addressing emotional, environmental, societal, and cultural factors that affect the lives of her clients. She is renowned for tailoring evidence-based therapeutic approaches and treatment modalities to meet individual needs, ensuring a comprehensive and personalized therapeutic experience.
