I am a clinical psychologist and psychoanalyst in private practice serving adults and adolescents. I am a warm, interactive person, and respond to my patients in a lively, involved way. I work with all problems of living and help patients to function better in their lives and relationships. We all have deeply ingrained patterns of relating to others and viewing ourselves, some self-defeating and interfering with our ability to live a satisfying and productive life. While essential, insight is not enough to alleviate personal suffering. I help patients to make positive steps in their lives.
I completed post-doctoral psychoanalytic training at the William Alanson White Institute in New York. All my work, even short-term consultations, is informed by my conviction that talking (and in the case of children, playing) is curative. Every complex individual must be considered in the context of his relationships.
I work with a range of ages and believe that a developmental perspective over the life span permits a greater understanding of the dilemmas and challenges of living. I have considerable experience working with creative persons in music and the arts.

Groups
Psychotherapy Group
Group psychotherapy to address problems of living with a social component is a powerful tool for the individual who repeats unproductive or dysfunctional patterns of relating and thereby sabotages his or her capacity to trust and rely on others in his or her world. Group therapy offers an opportunity to work through those issues in a safe and supportive environment and to make real progress in daily life.
