Most people grapple with challenges related to self-esteem, self-actualization, emotion (be it awareness, regulation or resilience) and intimate relationships, (be they with a partner, family, friends or business associates). In helping people with these matters throughout my 40-year practice I have found them to be based on attachment trauma, personal and interpersonal conflict, anxiety and whatever set of problematic behaviors have arisen out of attempting to cope with these issues (e.g., rumination, avoidance, food and substance abuse, depression). If you are struggling with any of this lets talk. We may be well-suited to work together. I see one’s emotional life as the wellspring of both joy and pain and believe feelings must be experienced in conjunction with insight and understanding. Other areas of special interest are indicated by my certification in Psychodynamic Therapy, ISTDP (Intensive Short-Term Dynamic Psychotherapy), Attachment, Human Sexuality, Group Psychotherapy. Alth
