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.
