In my practice I offer a welcoming setting and provide a safe space for your suffering or difficulties. When you speak about yourself to someone who is trained to listen and examine the circumstances that motivated your consultation, a change occurs. A psychoanalyst is a person trained to hear what is happening under the surface, and provides a place where you may speak and hear yourself differently. I have been working as a psychoanalyst and psychotherapist for 25 years and I have found that words can hurt, words can make people sick, but words can also save. Talking cures.
Psychoanalyst and Supervisor, Co-founder and Director of the Philadelphia Lacan Group, and Associate Faculty, Psychoanalytic Studies Minor, UPENN, Honorary Member IPTAR. My books include The Puerto Rican Syndrome (Gradiva Award and Boyer Prize) , Please Select Your Gender, Transgender Psychoanalysis, and Psychoanalysis in the Barrios (Gradiva Award Winner.)
