I have helped numerous people who are tired of the side effects and lack of efficacy of psychotropic medications and desire to achieve a healthier and happier life.

People often decide to see a psychiatrist because they are experiencing psychological or interpersonal pain. Because of this pain, they are unable to feel a sense of well-being or feel connected to themselves or others. Often, emotional pain results from unknown or unrecognized beliefs, conflicts, and patterns. When people are unaware of their feelings, thoughts, and actions, they may stay stuck in maladaptive ways of thinking and relating. Psychotherapy aims to help people develop a deeper awareness of themselves in order to relieve symptoms, enhance well-being, and develop a healthier relationship with the self and others.

My ideal clients are teens and adults who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or not like themselves.

You're juggling a lot. Maybe anxiety keeps you up at night, depression makes the days feel heavy, or ADHD makes it hard to keep up. You might be a teen still figuring things out, or an adult who's tried to push through alone for too long. You want more than just managing symptoms. You want to actually feel like yourself again. You're ready to take that first step, and I'm here for all of it.

Sometimes couples work is helpful; sometimes more intensive analytic treatment is indicated.
I regard empathy, responsiveness, and respect for the patient as core therapeutic values. While I tailor treatment to the individual, as a psychoanalyst I place special importance on gaining insight about unconscious contributors to current difficulties. I also appreciate the importance of clarifying and resolving here-and-now problems. When appropriate I prescribe medications or work short-term. My style is collaborative rather than authoritarian. For many years I have taught psychotherapy and psychoanalysis to trainees in these fields. I also teach professional ethics. I have published in the major journals in my field and am a training and supervising psychoanalyst.

I like to think I am best suited for treating individuals who are very sensitive and want more out of their lives, those who are seeking a deeper, richer life than where they find themselves currently. Identifying and changing those things that block emotional satisfaction is something patients and I work together on. Doing this allows my patients to make better emotional contact with themselves, with their loved ones and their life's work. I like to help patients identify what is healthy and what is unhealthy in their emotional and physical lives. Establishing genuine contact with my patients is the hallmark of psychotherapy.

How do we sort out problems of living? How do we formulate who we are and who we want to become? How do we develop loving satisfying relationships? How much are these questions of the mind and to what extent are they about the biology of our brains? As a psychiatrist, these are the questions that have shaped my clinical practice for over 25 years.

Do psychiatrists provide marriage counseling?
Yes, some psychiatrists provide marriage counseling, though this is not the primary focus for most psychiatrists. Psychiatrists are medical doctors who specialize in mental health and can offer psychotherapy, including couples therapy, in addition to prescribing medication. However, traditional marriage counseling is more commonly provided by licensed marriage and family therapists (LMFTs), psychologists, or clinical social workers.
What is the difference between a marriage counselor and psychiatrist?
The main difference is medical training and prescribing ability. Psychiatrists have completed medical school and psychiatric residency training, which means that they can diagnose mental health conditions and prescribe medication, in addition to providing psychotherapy. In contrast, marriage counselors typically hold master's degrees in counseling, social work, or marriage and family therapy and specialize in relationship dynamics and communication skills; they cannot prescribe medication.
Should I see a psychiatrist individually or go to marriage therapy?
This depends on whether your primary concern is individual mental health symptoms or relationship challenges. Individual psychiatry is appropriate when you are seeking treatment for your *own* mental health condition (such as depression, anxiety, or ADHD) and need medication management or psychiatric evaluation focused specifically on your symptoms and treatment plan. Marriage therapy with a psychiatrist is appropriate when relationship problems are the main concern and one or both partners have mental health conditions that impact the relationship. Many people may benefit from both individual psychiatric care for personal mental health management *and* separate couples therapy (with either a psychiatrist or marriage counselor) to address relationship dynamics. For example, one partner experiencing postpartum depression might work with a psychiatrist for evaluation and medication while both partners attend couples therapy to navigate new parenting challenges.
