About Us

I practice psychotherapy, psychoanalysis, and psychopharmacology. I treat patients who seek help for a wide range of problems including depression, anxiety, difficulties in relationships, underachievement and feeling overwhelmed or stressed. I treat children, adolescents and adults and have extensive experience treating professionals including physicians, lawyers, executives, teachers and mental health professionals. I have worked in student health in a university setting and am experienced treating students facing academic difficulties. I served as Professor of Psychiatry and Neurology, Vice Chair for Education and Director of Residency Training in the Department of Psychiatry at the University of Kentucky for many years. , I completed residencies and am board certified in four specialties--Pediatrics, Neurology, Psychiatry and Child and Adolescent Psychiatry. My longstanding interest in intensive psychotherapy led me to complete training as a psychoanalyst. , I am trained in the use of psychotropic medications and different forms of psychotherapy, ranging from brief therapy to long term intensive therapies and psychoanalysis for people with long-standing difficulties. I also provide consultations and supervision for mental health professionals.
