​My primary clinical orientation has been informed by Self Psychology, the school founded by Heinz Kohut, and Relational Psychoanalysis, as exemplified in the work of Jessica Benjamin, Philip Bromberg and Daniel N. Stern. In recent years I have worked to integrate Stern's contributions into a relational framework for understanding Autistic experience (see publication page).

I am currently Assistant Clinical Professor of Psychiatry @ Mount Sinai Hospital/Morningside as well as a faculty member of The Wilhelm Reich Center for the Study of Embodiment.
