Welcome
If you came to this site, you must want to lead a more fulfilling life. The journey of obtaining it can be one of the world’s most pleasurable – and challenging – processes. Never boring. There is nothing like knowing oneself and understanding what you really want… and getting it.
I have worked with individuals and couples for years – on all kinds of issues, helping them to:
-
Build more satisfying relationships
-
Achieve more success in their careers
-
Reduce their depression and anxiety
-
Eliminate behaviors that hinder potential
-
Acomplish their goals
-
Address parenting issues including those associated with adoption
It is my job to help you get the most out of your life—to become the you that you want to become—to get what you want. I believe that therapy is all about exploring, refining and deepening your understanding of yourself and others. With it, you can achieve a more satisfying life.
My Credentials
I am a certified psychoanalyst in private practice in Brookline, MA. I received my Doctorate in Psychoanalysis from the Boston Graduate School of Psychoanalysis and my Master’s in Counseling from Northeastern University.
Why Psychotherapy?
People, especially those in emotional pain, don’t need fixing. They need to grow. Psychotherapy (also known as talk therapy) can be transformative. It is not just “talking about your problems”; it is also working toward solutions.
