Dr. Herb Rabin

Colleagues call me "the therapist's therapist". My postdoctoral psychodynamic training is compassionately integrated with alternative methods such as gestalt therapy, role playing and meditation.

After many years, I continue to be fascinated by teaching and by supervising psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers and pastoral therapists at local universities, institutes, clinics, plus in foreign countries. Also, I have cooperative relationships with talented specialists. This certainly enhances my therapeutic skills.
