How do we change? What makes change so difficult? These are vital questions when seeking help with overwhelming life difficulties. As a Harvard trained psychologist and psychoanalyst who both treats people seeking change and teaches other clinicians about such treatment, my focus is on helping my patients improve and deepen personal relationships, become more satisfied and productive in work, change lifelong ways of coping that just aren't working. Change occurs through exploration in a safe and private environment where you can feel understood and where you can creatively discover new ways of addressing old problems.

Welcome! Psychotherapy is a collaborative journey, and I aim to approach it with humility and compassion. My clients come from a wide range of backgrounds, and many of them have experience in academia, medicine, or the arts. An ideal client is someone seeking to make sense of what they value and how to live in accord with their values, and who finds it helpful to approach these questions from a reflective and philosophical perspective.

"Some days you wake up and immediately start to worry. Nothing in particular is wrong it's just the suspicion that forces are aligning quietly and there will be trouble." - Jenny Holzer. What can begin as a vague worry in our daily lives might quickly grow into something more troublesome. We might put off getting help in the hope that "things will get better on their own," but sometimes things don't. Often the most difficult step in addressing areas of concern is the first.

I help young people, couples, families and adults with problems in living through brief and long-term therapy as well and through psychoeducational evaluations. Until my recent move to Watertown, MA, I ran an externship in New York, NY, working with children and adolescents for many years. I have supervised, taught, presented, and published; I have seen such a variety of problems that I am reluctant to say that I specialize. I approach people as individuals rather than as diagnostic categories, and don't assume a single treatment approach for everyone. The relationship we build is our best tool for making a difference.

As a gay man, I am passionate about working with clients from historically marginalized communities, including the LGBTQIA+ population.
I utilize a psychodynamic (insight oriented) approach, integrating relational therapy, Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT) and trauma informed treatments. I also employ tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mentalization Based Therapy, when clinically appropriate. I strongly believe that our identities and backgrounds, including our culture, sexual orientation, and gender identity, play a large role in our development and identity formation. I value clinical relationships built on trust and aim to foster a safe and judgement-free space that helps my clients gain insight into their feelings, thoughts, and patterns of behavior.

Do you struggle to feel satisfied in your personal or professional life? If so, you're certainly not alone. In striving for personal and professional success, it’s easy to become disconnected from yourself and the relationships that matter most. As pressure and stress build, you may find yourself feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, or struggling to remain present. I enjoy helping high-achieving students and working professionals face the demands of high-pressure environments without losing connection to themselves or the people they care about most.

I have been a psychotherapist for more than 35 years. I provide both individual and couples therapy. I use evidence-based methods to work with my clients on achieving their desired goals. With couples, I commonly see people wanting assistance with conflict resolution skills, communication skills, and help with diminished physical intimacy. For individuals, I have found that past histories of trauma or emotional invalidation are fairly common regardless of the particular struggle bringing someone to see me.

Therapy can help you free up the “stuck” places in your life, the ways of relating to yourself and others that can feel self-defeating, limiting or out of your control. These ways can lead to distress that may come in many forms: anxiety, anger, emptiness, detachment. Yet these experiences are not only a source of suffering, they are also a message that speaks to desires, passions, conflicts, and pain. Together we work to understand all this and place it in the context of where you come from and the world you live in now.
