LifeWorks

LifeWorks is a partnership between David Swain and Larry Shushansky.
I spent two and a half years in therapy with David Swain. He is one of the most important people in my life and I am so fortunate that he was recommended to me by my doctor.
When I first met David, I was feeling depressed and just thought I needed a «tune-​up». I didn’t like him at first, as he spoke very softly and seemed too touchy-​feely. But I stuck with it and it wasn’t long before things started to change dramatically.
In the time I saw David no corner of my life was left untouched. It was a long and often painful treatment. But David is very flexible and avoids many of the common pitfalls of less-​talented therapists. He is extraordinarily intelligent and insightful, abundantly wise, but measured in his application of that wisdom. Above all else, he is warm. It turns out I needed a lot of that in my life.
People decry the expense of psychotherapy, but had I known back then how far it would take me in these two and a half years, I’d have gladly bankrupted myself if needed (luckily I didn’t have to).
I have seen a number of therapists in my life, but David is the best I’ve ever seen. I have complete faith that if you’re ready to start changing yourself for the better, as I was, he can surely be your guide.
