A Diverse & Inclusive Practice
Dr. Joe works with a diverse group of people — including high-profile clients in business, entertainment, and technology — bringing the same care and discretion to every client he sees. He has also trained other psychologists and has particular experience and interest working with individuals and couples building families, and with the LGBTQIA+ community.
"I'm not the type of person who would ever speak to a psychologist, but your empathetic, caring, and non-judgmental approach helped me open up to you and develop a trusting relationship. You will never know how much you are appreciated."
"His ability to maintain an empathic and open stance while still holding himself to the highest professional and ethical standards is unmatched. When I ask whether he is someone I would trust my own loved ones with — it is an instant and confident yes."
"Speaking with Dr. Joe was like talking with the angels. After several weeks of psychotherapy, my depression began to lift. Dr. Joe worked with me to help me understand my depression and gave me the tools to keep my thoughts in a functional and adaptive cycle. I trust him wholeheartedly."
