What is different about my approach is that I will help you be a better person. The person you want to be. The world is rapidly changing and life today requires a new approach to living, growing and developing. I can help you meet life’s challenges. I want you to be creative in life and savor your accomplishments. I can help you grow emotionally so you can begin to make not only new choices, but new kinds of choices. I can help you discover new ways you can live your life more completely, fully and passionately.

I am an associate professor of psychology at the City University of New York, and a senior faculty member of the East Side Institute for Group and Short Term Psychotherapy, an international center for human development. I serve as mentor and supervisor to clinicians in training.

I am the co-editor, along with Dr. Lois Holzman, of Psychological Investigations: A Clinician’s Guide to Social Therapy, a collection of philosophical therapeutic conversations with the founder of Social Therapy, Dr. Fred Newman.
