“I am a clinical social worker with thirty years of experience working with individuals, couples and families. I have a Master's and Ph.D. from Columbia University and I serve in both teaching and supervisory positions at The Institute for Contemporary Psychotherapy.

I am warm and directive in my therapeutic approach. I combine my formal training (Freudian methods and systems theory) and my extensive experience with an active dialogue with my clients to insure the most effective results.

Through my specialized training, I have developed a considerable practice working with both straight and gay couples. I also have extensive experience helping clients deal with parenting issues, including their child's self-esteem and general emotional well-being.”
