I have been in private pratice for more than 25 years and love my work. I consider my training at Adelphi’s Doctoral program, Cornell Medical’s Internship and fellowship program, and the NYU postdoctoral program to have been invaluable. I currently train psychologits at Cornell Medical, City University,Adelphi’s Derner Institute, and Yeshiva Univerity. I think patienthood requires degrees of courage and self reflectiveness that warrant the utmost respect, and have found that people even in the most abject of circumstances can grow and undo the causes of much of their suffering.
