Fundamentals:
I utilize a humanistic, psychodynamic and experiential
approach to work with individuals and couples who are
struggling with relationship problems, depression, anxiety,
and trauma. I also provide specialized consultations for
those who have experienced addictions, sexual compulsivity
and eating disorders. Couples comprise half of my practice.
I coordinate referrals and participate in a network of
colleagues who provide Three-To-OneTM theraputic
weekends which are designed for a couple, or a family,
or a professional group who is at an impasse. Since group
psychotherapy is a powerful modality for treating deeper
emotional and relationship problems, my practice includes
therapy groups for women and men and couples.

My post-doctoral training was in Modern Psychoanalysis.
My practice of thirty years is devoted to high functioning
patients who are motivated to improve their relationships.
I work with couples extensively, and work with a nationwide
network of colleagues who offer intensive Three-To-OneTM
weekends. In a six-hour process over three days, I work
with couples who face crises in their relationships. These
couples travel to Stamford or to Miami Beach to meet with
me, start to resolve impasses, and join in creating personal
plans of action. Apart from my couples work, my therapy
practice is oriented toward long-term therapy groups for
men and for women.
