Therapist Overview
Picking the right therapist can be difficult. You want them to be very knowledgeable, experienced, easy to talk to about anything, passionate about their work and sincerely invested in helping you. They should be well trained in teaching you specific skills that are distinctly tailored to your goals, in a way that is easiest for you to learn, so that you feel comfortable and self-confident incorporating them into your life. As an advanced therapist with 30+ years’ experience working with adults, I continue passionate about my work with clients because I believe in and live by these standards, as my clients will attest. Clients, colleagues, physicians and other professionals who refer to me, describe me as friendly, empathetic, compassionate, direct, humorous, down-to-earth, knowledgeable and genuinely caring. I maximize sessions by being on time and reviewing previous notes before each session. I specialize in CBT, DBT, Mindfulness and Solution Focused Therapy. It takes a lot of courage to seek help. Whether you chose to work with me or someone else, please consider the importance of working with a therapist who takes their job seriously, so you don’t waste your time, money and emotional energy. Look for a therapist who not only listens, but provides insight and teaches you effective skills you can use long term.
