CONSULTATION

I work with my consultees to develop a cohesive theoretical framework of psychological development, pathology, and psychological health to guide their work. I believe in a theory of practice that is unencumbered with metapsychology allowing for enhanced appreciation and versatility in working with each unique individual. I help consultees build trust in their own sensibilities and instincts and to utilize their life experience in attenuating to and understanding the experiential world of the person they are working with. I emphasize the power of immediacy in the bi-directional transference as a central and valuable dimension of psychotherapy.
