I am a clinical psychologist who works with high-achieving individuals facing challenges such as depression, anxiety, relationship issues, cross-cultural adjustment, and difficult family histories. I take a warm, collaborative, and non-judgmental approach, helping adolescents and adults deepen self-understanding, build meaningful relationships, and move toward a life aligned with their values.
I hold a PsyD from Yeshiva University and have extensive training across medical, community, school, and foster care settings. I also supervise doctoral trainees at The Graduate Center, CUNY, and have offered workshops, talks, and leadership contributions through professional organizations. In addition to clinical work, I founded Dr. Vivi Coaching to support international students, and I authored The Power of Being Different, a chapter on navigating graduate school as an international student.
