About
Psychoanalysis and analytic psychotherapy are relationship-based treatment models. Reasons for seeking treatment, such as depression and anxiety, are as unique to individuals as are their relationships, thoughts, feelings, and perceptions. Finding out for one's self what constitutes a good therapeutic relationship develops over time along with insight and transformation. There is no replacement for personal experience where mental health is concerned. In the words of Wilfred Bion, "You are the most important person you are ever likely to meet. Therefore it is of no small importance that you get on well with this important person." I have over 20 years of experience as a licensed and nationally certified psychoanalyst working with individuals, couples and professionals in the arts, privately and in groups. I worked for the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), NYC, treating dually diagnosed HIV+ and AIDS clients for alcohol and poly-substance abuse. I hold a Specialization in Adult Onset Trauma, NYU Post-Doctoral Program for Psychoanalysis and Psychotherapy. Award-winning author and poet; National Association for the Advancement of Psychoanalysis Gradiva Award, Best Article, Gradiva Award for Poetry. Ambassador of Hope, Shared Hope Int., Co-founder, authorized lay teacher of Two Rivers Zen Community.
