Clinical Psychologist in Booklyn, NY

About My Clients

I work with mood disorders, personality disorders, trauma and substance abuse. I treat people who are experiencing anxiety, and depression. Many people have problems with their personality, "too controlling", "too passive", etc. I also treat psychological trauma, from longstanding development and complex trauma to significant index trauma's such as auto accidents, combat or personal assault. I also work with substance abuse in individuals and its affects of significant others.

My Background and Approach

I have studied various modalities from humanistic, gestalt, cognitive-behavioral, psychodynamic, DBT, ACT, motivational interviewing. All of these are tools whose foundation lie in a safe, nonjudgmental atmosphere of warmth and acceptance. I have over 30 years experience in the field helping people to feel better about their lives. I am a cis-gendered white male. I try to understand my privilege and social location--and how it may affect the clients with whom I work. I endeavor to be inclusive and work with all identities which enrich a persons life. Our work will be to help you find your unique voice and help it grow strong and to help you become happy.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

Psychotherapy is often awkward by nature. It tries to avoid prescripted ways of understanding and communicating, and is forever searching to find more honest, grounded and spontaneous ways of relating. This often requires some patience and at times a willingness to tolerate uncomfortable feelings. Together we will explore paths which have previously been ignored or kept dark or silent. We will do this with respect, kindess and immense self-compassion and steadily bring vitality and energy back into your life. In doing this, safety, confidentiality and trust are paramount. We will work at your own pace, in ways that hopefuly feel both new and exciting. It is a journey of emotional discovery, and you are at its core. Let me help you.
