My ideal client is someone who wants more out of life than symptom removal. I want to work with people who want to find meaning, purpose and passion in their lives. Certainly, I want to help people diminish suffering but a lasting approach must involve a determined commitment to living a fulfilling life.
I have had 50 years of clinical experience working with a wide range of psychiatric and psychological problems from identity issues in adolescence to bipolar illness and to helping people deal with end of life issues. I utilize a range of therapeutic strategies as needed from psychodynamic interventions to more pragmatic approaches like DBT and CBT.
One of the great joys and privileges in my life is helping people find happiness and meaning in their lives and transform a life of pain into a life of fulfillment.
