Object Relations Psychoanalysis

My Object Relations practice is with young people, adults, and couples with infants. I also teach, supervise and consult with therapists, psychologists, and psychoanalysts who are seeking to deepen their understanding of their patients.

if you listen to them. They tell you what is bothering you.

Psychoanalysis is one way of making permanent changes in your life

Welcome to my website, which I hope will serve as an overview of who I am and how I work. I say overview, because a web site, like a book, can only provide you with information about me. Your ‘sense’ of me and whether or not we are a good fit is a more reliable indicator when we meet in person. Even then, your own personal history may interact with your sense, but that too is what we will be exploring together.


I am a psychoanalyst, a clinical psychologist, a consultant, teacher and writer. I supervise others who are also continuing to learn. After more than forty years in the field, I too continue to learn. Although I frequently offer and attend professional workshops, I learn most from my patients and my life experience. I believe that learning from experience is the most important way we learn. Psychoanalysis is experiential learning.


Since no two of us experience our lives in the same way, I must always learn new things. I will learn from you in order to be able to be with you in an understanding and helpful way. At the same time, how you are with me impacts how I am with you. 

I would be happy to meet with you to determine if we could work together.

Our relationship, as well as what we talk about, is confidential.

Only you and I will know what we are discussing.
