Jungian Analyst and Director of CWPA
I believe that people have the innate potential to live emotionally satisfying lives and to experience fulfillment in their work, study, relationships and recreation. I have an interactive style using both brief or depth psychotherapy which is both challenging and compassionate. I work with a broad array of persons from diverse backgrounds. Clients wanting their spiritual or lifestyle orientations respected are especially welcome. My post-graduate training includes extensive study at the C. G. Jung Institute in Switzerland and with the Philadelphia Jung Institute. I am Board Certified in addictions and am a Certified Imago Relationship Therapist. I received my Diploma in Analytical Psychology from the Inter-Regional Society of Jungian Analysts.
Because I am trained in a variety of therapies, including depth psychoanalysis, I am able to select a treatment approach which best meets the needs of the client. This client-centered approach creates a climate of safety which supports those with whom I work in making desired change.

I have lectured extensively in the US, Europe and Asia. I have been Family Program Director at Walter Reed Army Medical Center and faculty at the University of Maryland School of Medicine. I am the Director of Training for the Philadelphia Jung Institute, Treasurer for the Philadelphia Association of Jungian Analysts and Treasurer and former Director of Education for the Jungian Analysts of Washington Association. I am listed in Who's Who Among Human Services Professionals and Who's Who in the World.
