I have lived a full and varied life. I studied philosophy and drama at Princeton University, worked in politics in NY and DC in my 20s, earned an MFA at the USC School of Cinema-Television in film-making, went on to win two Emmy Awards and work on documentaries for Frontline, Nova and PBS. And now I am working as a therapist, eager to help others find the courage to stand in the unknown.

Currently, I am working in concert with SueAnne Piliero, my partner, to crystallize, formulate, expand upon and promote a model of therapy she has been developing over the past two decades. The therapy invokes a Tripartite Conception of the Self that is created in the wake of trauma. The therapeutic stance is one of Fierce Love in which the therapist boldly mirrors the patient’s Core Self in order to help the Present-Day Self free itself from its bound up position in the Wounded Self.
