A few years ago, a woman called to schedule an appointment with me. She asked if there was anything she should do before our first visit. I encouraged her to think about how she’d know when the therapy was over. “I thought you were supposed to tell me that,” she answered. At our final meeting she reminded me of this conversation and thanked me for putting her in charge, “right from the beginning.”

That’s what I do. For twenty-eight years I’ve been taught well by my clients. In short, I’ve learned that no one knows you better than you do, no one knows what works for you better than you do. “Then why do I need a therapist?” you might ask. Because, like my client quoted above, someone needs to ask you the questions you’re not asking. And more, someone needs to help you pay attention to your answers.

In addition to my practice, I’ve published articles on “Taking Safety Home,” and have been featured on the CBS news program “48 Hours.” I supervise colleagues in the psychotherapy profession. I facilitate a men’s group, see many couples in conflict, and work well with men who’d rather have their teeth pulled by a therapist than talk to one.

I provide individual psychotherapy as well as couples and family therapy. About 50 percent of my practice is working with couples. I also see and enjoy working with adolescents (my two teenage children's revenge!)

My wife and I have two children: a son, who is a college student, and a high-school-aged daughter who is an aspiring dancer.
