Psychotherapist/Psychoanalyst/Traumtologist
Women's Therapy Centre Institute, CPPNJ
Highland Park, NJ
I have an AbD in Sociology and taught in inner city community colleges and at Rutgers University. In 1980, I got an MSW from Rutgers University.
During my tenure at Rutgers and subsequently, I worked in a labor union counseling members and retirees. Five years later I trained at and helped build the Women’s Therapy Centre Institute, where I learned and taught psychodynamic work. The WTCI is an Institute that does not separate the personal from the political, and my work there continues.
For decades, I have been an active member of APA Division for Psychoanalysis, Section 9: Psychoanalysis for Social Responsibility.
I long been involved in the study and treatment of trauma and dissociation and specialize in a) how as it creates distorted body image and eating problems of all types as well as b) how traumatizing political, social and cultural realities affect individuals and groups.
I just returned from a US/UK Palestinian Network for Mental Health.
