Life, distilled, is about how you handle your relationships with other people. (Good) therapy, distilled, is a collaboration between two people with a common goal: to close the gap between who you are now and who you want to be. I work very interactively with my patients so that, together, we can create the right kind of therapy experience to transform them. Many of my patients are therapy "veterans" who were underwhelmed by their past experience in therapy --finding it awkward, stagnant, or, frankly, boring-- and are now interested in doing a different, more active, kind of work on themselves. I use my training in relational psychoanalysis, as well as my strong interest in Buddhist psychology, to specialize in working with people --usually smart, creative, somewhat unconventional people-- who want to ask themselves meaningful questions and address core identity issues. I see your decision to start therapy as a commitment to yourself to live more consciously, to get to know what matters to you instead of getting stuck on what's expected of you. To help you get there I listen, ask questions, interpret...and say what I really think.
