My approach to the treatment of psychological problems is to use psychotherapy supported

by psychotropic drugs if necessary. The psychotherapy I practice is insight oriented but

pragmatic. I believe that before we can make changes to our lives we need to understand

the factors that contributed to our present difficulties. However, unless we can start practicing

new forms of thinking, feeling and behaving all the intellectual insights in the world will benefit

us little. Therefore, exploration of early family influences must proceed hand in hand with

addressing and resolving present problem areas.
