I’ve lived in New York City for the last 53 years after being raised in Westchester County, NY and schooled at Tulane, Penn State and NYU. I live and work on the Upper West Side of Manhattan with my wife Deborah, who has her own practice as a Life Design Strategist and Interfaith Minister who focuses on Spirited Career/Life Coaching for Women, Relationship Support for Singles and Couples, Unique Wedding Ceremonies & Life Passage Celebrations (see spiritedliving.com). We share one of those great, old and comfortable West Side apartments.
My life has been a journey with many turns. For much of it, I didn’t notice the one constant that seemed to entwine other interests: a desire to know how to help people reduce their confusions, inadequacy and pain.
This was always a factor in my roles as a young photographer (with a studio in the photo district for 12 years), an author (of the book “Running USA”), a film producer (of the movie “On the Edge” starring Bruce Dern), a marathon founder and director (NYC Marathon) and also Chief Coach of the West Side Soccer League (with 3000 kids). I also created and ran a manufacturing company (Kidselebration, Inc.), which I sold after 12 successive profitable years.
Although quite successful in these fields, I was more drawn to help clients and associates with their lifes’ limitations than the business at hand. Finally, the healing and counselling tide was too great to continue pursuing other interests.

My practice covers many different aspects of people's needs. I work intuitively to analyze the many energies that emanate, not only from bodies but from the deeper part of the soul. This is where I find the master computer that reveals the inner patterns of imbalance one is challenged by. I also use many techniques to fine-tune bodies for health and athletic performance and work with some of the top runners in the world. Most of my clients are not athletes.
My job is to help make people feel whole. This includes the dramas in one's life (i.e. relationships, work situations, finance, health, etc.) and to see where the dysfunctional patterns began and to find the solutions to them. I love to bring people out of pain and I'm excited about the many tools I have to do it. This is why I teach. It's great to have an arsenal, and I want everyone to have one. Of course, the strongest tool we have is our heart. To strengthen this strengthens all. I want my clients to have the tools to be powerful and maintain their health and happiness.
Sessions with me can focus on the many different life issues you may be concerned about. Many clients also ask me about others in their lives, and I'm able to intuitively know about anyone you are interested in. This includes family and business associates. I've done a lot of work with executives about many aspects of their business life and often provide insight into prospective job applicants.
