I-Psych NY                    Integral Psychotherapy and Growth Work

 Welcome! I am a psychologist with over 40 years of providing therapy, consultations, and supervision. Over these decades, I've never stopped learning. And that's because of my need to make sense of human suffering and, wherever I can, to heal it. In the late 1960's and early '70's, while I was an undergrad psychology major, Humanistic Psychology swept through the Zeitgeist like a powerful antidote to behaviorism. Positive Psychology has its roots there, as do the fields of lifespan developmental psychology, Eastern and Western philosophy, and also Transpersonal Psychology. The most powerful model of psychology and psychotherapy, in my opinion, is psychodynamic psychotherapy, which has its own incredible offshoots, from Fosha's AEDP to somatic therapies, Jungian Analysis. I have explored most of these and other disciplines (family therapy, systems theories) for my personal and professional growth. Finally, the piece de resistance, the icing on the cake, is Ken Wilber's Integral theory of everything. This philosopher of consciousness has organized all that I have learned and made room for more. And it all boils down to one thing: You are a "body, mind, and spirit, in self, culture, and nature (Wilber)."
