Psychotherapy & Mental Health Counseling Services in Sedona & Phoenix, AZ
As a seasoned psychotherapist with over three decades of experience, I specialize in helping individuals navigate relationship challenges and emotional authenticity. My practice focuses on balancing intimacy and self-identity, addressing issues of emotional abandonment, over-merging in relationships, and maintaining healthy boundaries. With a foundation in psychoanalysis and psychotherapy from institutions like Columbia University and the Institute of Contemporary Psychotherapy, I have maintained private practice since 1984, serving clients in New York City and now Arizona. My therapeutic approach emphasizes the client-therapist relationship as a model for external relationships, while prioritizing the client's journey of self-discovery.I have authored two influential books on psychotherapy and intimacy, and my work with AIDS patients in the late 1980s shaped my understanding of emotional resilience. As founder of the Arizona Society for Psychoanalytic Psychology, I continue advancing relational psychoanalysis through clinical practice, supervision, and academic contributions. My treatment methodology adapts to individual client needs while maintaining rigorous professional standards grounded in contemporary psychoanalytic theory.
