Has your relationship become like roommates or a war zone or you just feel that something's missing but you don't know what it is? Maybe you feel the connection is lost. You may both feel isolated, hurt and angry. In therapy I'll help you to improve communication. We'll unpack "old baggage" from the past to understand its impact on the present. You may be longing to get your needs met and to feel heard. We'll tackle issues such as escalating arguments, walls of silence, infidelity, shame and anger. I offer you interactive, nonjudgmental guidance. I use my insight, empathy and sense of humor to help you. Let's talk. I offer a free 15 minute phone consultation, For struggling couples it's rarely just one person's problem, it's the dynamic between you, and it can change. In working with me, you'll each feel heard and learn to truly listen. You'll develop greater empathy for each other. Intimacy that you've lost can return. We may unravel the pain of old or new relationship wounds still affecting both of you. Every couple is different and I strive to meet you where you're at. In my 30+ years of experience, I have helped a great many individuals and couples of varied ethnicities, religions, classes, gender identities and sexual orientations. By working with you interactively, empathically and respectfully, I can help you too.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, Licensed Psychiatric Technician, and Masters level Addictions Counselor in Pasadena, California. Since 1984, I’ve been providing mental health services for adults and adolescents in both inpatient and/or outpatient settings. As such, I have a varied experience with abuse, trauma, depression, grief/loss, issues of personal growth, relationships, stress, and mental illness. During that time I have also worked extensively with addictions (of all types) and related issues (“co-dependency”, eating disorders, alcoholism, dual diagnosis…). My responsibilities have ranged from Licensed Psychiatric Technician (where much of my experience in mental health and medications comes from), to Program Director. Currently I am in private practice, life coaching, teaching, providing clinical supervision to prelicensed therapists, providing some staff training and consultation.

We are a group of licensed clinical marriage and family therapists who are committed to providing high quality therapy services for couples, families, individuals and groups. We see many different types of client issues, including but not limited to couples communication, anxiety, depression, anger, family and stepfamily difficulties, and premarital preparation. I have been in full-time private practice for over 10 years. As marriage and family therapists, my staff and I are specially trained to deal with the context between and around clients, in addition to whatever might be going on for them individually. My personal commitment is to provide a safe and welcoming environment in which we can help move clients from where they are struggling and challenged to personal growth, happiness, and greater connection with the ones they love. My relationship with my clients not only includes helping them in the crisis moments, but also being available throughout life for whatever may come up - many return to therapy for "tune-ups" at different points in their lives. I'm honored to be someone they feel safe enough with to return at those times when they need someone to listen. If this sounds like something that might be of help to you, please give us a call at 301-563-9520, or email us at info@laurelfay.com. We look forward to working with you.

I maintain a general private practice with a specialty in the treatment of trauma with offices in the Flatiron District of Manhattan and in Montclair, New Jersey. Whether you have experienced a major traumatic event, suffer from from acute or chronic anxiety and/or depression or whether you are feeling frustrated or stuck in repetitive patterns in your work or personal life, effective psychotherapy can help bring about empowerment, growth, and positive, lasting change. I am an active participant in each treatment and will work relationally with you to address your concerns. I also specialize in the use of more body-based modalities such as EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and SE (Somatic Experiencing). I have found, and current research is validating, how essential a healthy mind/body connection is to facilitating any real and lasting shifts from old habituated patterns to new, more adaptive ones, and I have found these modalities particularly effective in this regard.

OVERVIEW Together we look at your life to see what works, what doesn’t, and why. We’ll see who you are, the relationships you’re in, and what stops you from having the life you want. We’ll see how you act, think, feel, and relate to others today and how those have been affected by your life experiences. We’ll work to change things so your life does work for you. TRAUMA You may feel anxious, depressed, or alienated. Here you can feel safe, talk honestly about what happened and about how it still affects you, even when other people don't understand or can't stand to hear it any more. I help you understand why you’re reacting as you do, even when you may feel out of control or a little "crazy." You'll learn ways to work through the psychological and emotional impact of what happened so you can get your life back. If you or your family member is a victim of violent crime, you may be eligible for therapy at no cost to you. ADDICTIONS (Substances and Behaviors) You might have difficulty with alcohol or drugs, or you may need help evaluating if that’s true, how great the difficulty is, or what you can do about it. You may also be asking similar questions about sexual behaviors or compulsions, porn, gambling, Internet usage, spending, eating, cutting, or anything else you do that feels questionable or out of control. Some people feel like they are addicted to another person, what sometimes is referred to as "love addiction." GAY/LESBIAN/BISEXUAL ISSUES While I work with heterosexuals, I also work with many gay, bisexual, or lesbian people, both individually and in couples. If you’re in a process of self-discovery, you’ll be the one to decide what your sexual orientation and identity is. If you’re now coming out, together we can consider if, when, how, and with whom you decide to do it. If you’re clear and comfortable with your sexual orientation, I can give you safe place where you can be open about who you and how HIV has impacted your life or your relationships MIND/BODY The mind and body are functionally identical. What you think affects how you feel, and what you feel affects how think. I work at both levels, with people who are interested in doing that. For people who aren't interested in the this work, I am happy to stay strictly in a talk-therapy mode. YOU SET THE COURSE, AND I'LL HELP YOU GET THERE.

As a psychotherapist who practices from a Transpersonal perspective, I provide therapy for the WHOLE individual. Unlike traditional therapeutic structure, which only considers the Emotional and Intellectual components of the individual, I also focus on the Physical and Spiritual facets of Self. I work with all ages, from small children through geriatric seniors. My specialties include Eating Disorders, Depression, Anger Management, Anxiety and Substance Abuse. I provide therapy to individuals, couples and groups and especially enjoy working with children and adolescents.

As a systems-oriented psychotherapist and coach, my goal is to help you find your true potential and lead a life that is worth celebrating. While we can't change difficult situations of the past, we can work together to better understand and resolve challenges in your life. By applying systems therapy approaches and techniques, together we will identify long-standing behavior patterns or negative perceptions that may be holding you back from experiencing a more fulfilling and meaningful life or career. If you're looking for extra support and guidance through a challenging situation or you're just ready to move in a new direction in your life or career, I look forward to working with you to help you achieve your goals. Please call or email me to schedule an individual or couples session, either in person or online. Many of my clients (particularly those who travel!) enjoy the flexibility of online distance sessions. Conducting a session using your computer or smartphone allows us to see and hear each other in a secure, encrypted environment.

My practice is multi-generational. I work with clients as young as 11 years of age up to over 100. I have two office sites, Farmington Hills, MI and Livonia, MI. I also do consulting work at a variety of nursing homes throughout the metro area. Currently I am seeing patients via tele-health during the COVID-19 crisis. I have seen a 4 yr old and a 104 year old patient in the same day. I use an eclectic therapy mode where I choose to use the therapeutic techniques that will work best for not only your psychological condition, but also matched to your personality style to ensure the fastest and most long-standing positive outcome.

I am a psychotherapist and coach, licensed in marriage and family therapy. I have been interested in the helping profession since my teenage years and have been practicing professionally for over 35 years. In my career, I have worked in the non-profit and governmental sector as well as in a private clinical setting and have served as adjunct faculty for the University of Louisville’s Kent School of Social Work, the post-master’s Marriage and Family Therapy Program and The Louisville Seminary. I have also taught several classes over the years, among them were Couples Counseling and Introduction To Family Therapy. My husband, John Turner, and I have been specializing in couple work for over 15 years. My style is very practical and direct relying a great deal on the research of John Gottman, PhD. Gottman’s research has clearly identified the skills, beliefs and knowledge that are present in healthy relationships and I incorporate this into everyday practice with couples. I also uses the strengths and resources from the style of a solution-focused counseling approach. Clients appreciate the approach that does not linger on the problem, rather finds ways to quickly work toward solutions. I practice both with clients in the room as well as through email, instant messaging, phone and vide conferencing.

IT HELPS TO TALK TO SOMEONE Life can be challenging. All of us need support at times. This is particularly true if you are feeling depressed, anxious, angry or confused or are experiencing grief or a difficult relationship. Research and experience show that talk therapy can help. Therapy allows people to gain insight, improve relationships, clarify issues, overcome problems, and change unhelpful behaviors. I have a master's degree in Marriage and Family Therapy and I have conducted psychotherapy with individuals, couples, children, families and groups. My counseling clients come from all walks of life and are concerned with a wide variety of issues. I believe in providing a warm, supportive and thought-provoking environment where you can feel safe to explore your concerns. As a therapist, my approach is collaborative - we work together on discovering what is holding you back and how to overcome it. (For more, please see About Me & My Approach to Therapy). Whether you are struggling with relationship problems, your work environment, family difficulties or a lack of happiness in your life, it helps to talk to someone. Many clients report strong feelings of anger, frustration, irritability, sadness or despair that they don't know how to handle, or that they are out of touch with their emotions. Talking with a counselor such as me offers you the chance to work through such emotions, gain a broader perspective, find hope, and change things that aren't working. If you think therapy might be helpful for you, or if you have any questions, please call or email me. You may also fill out the Inquiry Form to the left and then click on submit.

Are you experiencing depression, anxiety, anger, or other emotional symptoms? Are you having relationship issues involving communication, intimacy, arguing or withdrawal from your partner? Are you feeling overwhelmed by the obligations of life and can't seem to find balance. This is where my perspective, training, and experience can assist you. Counseling can help you prioritize and problem solve so that stress does not overwhelm you. As a team, we will work together to improve your self confidence.

I am best suited to work with individuals, couples and families, providing support, guidance and skills to deal with life's most difficult challenges. I assist clients to improve communication and intimacy, change dysfunctional cycles, and develop healthy boundaries. I have extensive experience working with teens with severe behavioral and emotional issues. I believe every person is unique. Treatment should be customized based on an individual's values, beliefs, culture, and personal relationships. The therapeutic relationship is the foundation to successful therapy. My clients have stated they find me compassionate and easy to talk to. I am also able to provide Christian Counseling for those who request it.”

I work mostly with men who are feeling alone, angry, and ashamed. Most men in our society experience profound isolation and dissatisfaction with their lives, which they think is the way it's "supposed" to be. This couldn't be further from the truth. Our work together addresses these issues so that you can be alive and free. I believe that humans heal through connecting with others and I hope to make that connection with you. My approach also takes into account the larger forces that we have to deal with on a day to day basis in order to help therapy be more effective and lasting. I work from a Psychodynamic and Systemic framework but my honestly and authenticity is offered above all else.

Northampton Sex Therapy Associates, LLC (NSTA) is the only group private practice in New England dedicated exclusively to providing sex therapy, relationship therapy, and sexuality counseling to individuals, couples, and people in poly and non-monogamous relationships. Like most other forms of psychotherapy practice, sex therapy is exclusively talk therapy. This means meeting regularly with a therapist to talk about how to overcome whatever problem you have presented. During these meetings, sex therapists share their knowledge of human sexuality and expertise in working with sexual functioning and relationship challenges. Our clinical approach is grounded in research and evidence, rather than smoke and mirrors or vague, general promises. We provide clinical approaches and solutions that actually work, based on research and clinical experience. Over the course of a person's lifetime, multiple factors can add up and lead to difficulties with sex. Stress, trauma, illness, the side effects of medications, depression, and lack of self-esteem often negatively impact a person’s sexual functioning and desire. It is not uncommon for couples and individuals to experience sex-related challenges at some point in their lives. Everyone, and every body, deserves to experience satisfying, exciting, loving, and fulfilling sexual relationships and sexual contact. Sex therapy can often help. Most clients come to us with trauma, shame and guilt about the ways in which they are sexual and embodied. NSTA therapists understand the ways in which trauma—and the resulting fear and anxiety—impacts sexual functioning, and inhibits healthy sexual behavior. We help clients overcome sexual difficulties by using trauma-­informed clinical practices. Anxiety and shame are at the root of most sexual dysfunctions. These are typically emotions and feelings that trap human beings in rigid and fearful ways of expressing, or not expressing, themselves. These emotions and feelings have a powerful impact, particularly on how we manifest ourselves in sexual ways, sometimes to the point of retreating and hiding our bodies and sexuality, and occasionally to places of sexual compulsivity and over-expression. Regardless of the ways in which clients experience challenges with sex, we are in a unique position to help them navigate the often complex pathway toward feeling at home in their bodies and in their sexuality.

Are you struggling to feel like "yourself" again? Are you unable to feel settled, unable to keep up with your schedule or commitments? Are you feeling upset or more emotional for no apparent reason? Crises, be they large or small, disorient and leave us feeling uncertain, less able to rely upon and function like "ourselves." Growth and change are among the most positive and humanly adaptive qualities and yet the most uncertain and difficult experiences in life. At such times we want unbiased and reliable support to help restore our sense of self and help make positive choices for our lives. I've found the most important predictor in effective treatment is a positive connection between a person and their therapist. I provide a caring approach, empathic attunement, collaborative support, psycho-educational skills training, and the belief that growth and change are possible.

I help those who love each other learn to get along with each other. I provide individual and marriage counseling in a safe, professional and confidential environment. I help couples learn the skills necessary to communicate with one in other in ways that increase intimacy and connection. I help couples navigate through difficult issues, learn effective conflict resolution and understand one another on a deeper level. If there has been an infidelity or other type of betrayal, I help couples heal the wounds, rebuild trust and emotional safety.

I am a licensed mental health counselor who specializes in the treatment of anxiety, depression, substance abuse, chronic pain and stress management.

We can also explore how these obstacles to emotional well being contribute to and can actually increase problems with chronic pain and substance abuse. I am a standing member of the Adjunct Faculty at the University of South Florida, Dept. of Rehabilitation and Mental Health Counseling.

We are generalists working with individuals and families of all ages, ethnic backgrounds and with most emotional and relationship problems and most diagnoses. We have a great deal of experience with clients who are experiencing depression and/or anxiety and with clients with relationship issues of all types.

I am an independent practitioner in Alameda, CA. My specialties are marriage counseling, individual counseling, and facilitating "Dream Appreciation Groups". In individual and marriage counseling, we address the stumbling blocks affecting your current life circumstances. Our sessions are client-centered, lively conversations. During the first and second sessions, we usually talk about what you'd like to accomplish in your therapy, as well as historical information that will help paint a full picture of your life journey to the present time. Of course if you are in crisis, we will concentrate on this situation first, and then we will tackle the less critical, but just as important, reasons for your decision to enter therapy. My approach is humanistic in that your sessions are individually tailored to You, the only person(s) like you on earth. I've found that EMDR, a therapeutic approach, has been extremely effective for alleviating painful struggles (including for trauma, depression, anxiety, and substance abuse) more quickly than traditional or psychodynamic methods—but, once again, you will be able to decide how you want your sessions to move forward. I also do non-psychotherapy dream groups for people who would like to explore their dreams in a confidential and safe social environment. Although the groups are not psychotherapy, they are usually very therapeutic—people participating in these groups have experienced growth on many levels, that is, emotionally, mentally, and spiritually. If you believe that you would feel comfortable in any of these settings (individual, marital, or group), I would be glad to meet with you so that we can see whether we're a good fit together. I hope to hear from you soon!

I am a qualified, accredited counsellor and registered psychotherapist offering counselling and psychotherapy in South West London to individuals on a one-to-one basis, and as couples. I also offer clinical supervision and training to counsellors, psychotherapists and trainers individually and in groups. My practice is located in Fulham close to West Bropmton, Fulam Broadway and Earls Court tube. I offer individual fifty-minute weekly sessions for both time-focused counselling and longer-term individual psychotherapy. I also offer more frequent sessions (up to five per week) on an occasional or on-going basis, subject to availability. My fees for individual sessions range from £60 to £120 depending on the time and frequency of sessions. I charge £60 for a 45 minute consultation. I offer couples fifty minute sessions, with fees ranging from £80 - £120 (£120 for consultations). Fees are payable by cash or cheque at each session, or by cash, cheque or BACS transfer on an advance schedule. If you are unable attend a schedueled session, I may be able to offer you alternative session times within the same working week, subject to availability and given notice of at least one week. Otherwise, I charge for all missed and cancelled sessions once we agreed a session timetable. Sessions begin and end on time and, since I have no waiting room facilities, please arrive no more than a couple of minutes before your session is due to begin. What we talk about in session is confidential, with the following qualifications: • I discuss my work with a supervisor and will use only your first name • With your prior informed consent, I may contact other health professionals • I may need to break confidentiality where there is serious risk to you or others or in compliance with legal requirements • Your contact details are held in confidence by a professional colleague, who has instructions to contact you in case of an emergency if I am unable to do so Where a third party has contracted for us to work together (such as an Employer Assisted Scheme or Insurance Company), I may be required to submit brief written records of our sessions to this third party. I am happy to discuss the content and format of these notes and you may see these with at least one week’s notice.

I feel that every individual is unique; therefore every therapeutic relationship is unique. For therapy to be effective, it is essential that you find a therapist with whom you feel comfortable and understood. The following is a brief introduction to my philosophy and practice to help you decide if I am a good match for your needs. What I value most about therapy could be described with these concepts: Authenticity. Empathy. Mindfulness. I believe that we as humans are very skilled at denying feelings that are scary or difficult. Problems occur when these repressed or denied feelings are projected out onto others or into destructive patterns of behavior and negative thought processes. I believe in the power of insight to foster change. I feel that psychotherapy is a collaborative experience, and that we participate in a journey together. The therapeutic relationship provides opportunities to examine past and current relationships with others and with the Self. I believe in the power of the “here and now.” By observing and reflecting upon what occurs within a session, we are able to examine and work through the deeper conflicts that occur in your life outside of therapy. By becoming mindful of the feelings and experiences that occur in the safe, contained space of the therapy room, light is shed upon deeply rooted impulses, losses, wants and needs that are often denied and locked in the shadows of the psyche. I respect the difficulty of undertaking the therapeutic journey, and therefore consider myself challenging yet empathic. I consider myself an active therapist, yet the session is not about me…the session is your time. I work with adults and adolescents on an individual basis.

If you are looking for someone to help get you unstuck I have a variety of tools and techniques proven to help you make the changes you desire. I specialize in working with people struggling with life transitions, anxiety, depression, self-harm, relationship issues, family issues, parenting, positive self esteem, stress management, divorce and career issues. I believe counseling is a great resource for helping you to learn new skills. Counseling will provide you with a chance to develop greater self-insight and awareness so you can break old habits and develop new, healthy patterns in your life. I provide therapy to individuals, couples and families. I have specialized training and experience in: biofeedback, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), coaching, mindfulness practices, play therapy, family systems, Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) and supporting people through the process of change. My focus is on providing you with a safe, nonjudgmental and supportive place to explore your concerns in a deep and meaningful way. I work from a whole person, strengths-based approach. This means I focus on all of the aspects in your life and your unique inner strengths.

Life can present complication, conflict and stress. At times, this makes it challenging to trust oneself, others, or the world. Natural reactions, such as sadness, anxiety, or anger, shaped by our present and past experiences, can become overwhelming and lead to feeling stuck in a struggle or an unhelpful pattern.

Biblical Counseling gets to the heart of the matter. We use Scripture to reveal to our counselees what their real motives and desires are. This type of counseling is passionate and caring and hard work. But if you are serious about real and lasting change, this is what truly works. We are not so concerned about the outside of the person. We want to get to the core of their issues and let change begin within. When this happens, change on the outside will naturally take place. Most of our sessions last for 1 hour. And we hope to have you on your way again somewhere between 6-15 weeks of time. The beauty is that we are not charging you for our time so if you need longer attention that is completely okay with us. We're here to help you when you need it the most.

My experience living and working in other cultures has helped to expand my understanding of the human condition and greatly inform my practice of psychology. I enjoy incorporating Eastern techniques, such as mindfulness meditation, alongside Western approaches, especially cognitive psychology to assist my clients in their journeys to minimize suffering and maximize life satisfaction. Psychotherapy is something that almost everyone can benefit from. As we travel through life we accumulate many experiences. Some of these experiences may adversely affect our functioning beyond what would seem normal. Some of these experiences and biological situations may create psychological conditions.To understand how these experiences and may be affecting you and develop strategies to better cope with and recover from them psychotherapy can be very beneficial. Please consider how valuable your quality of life and functioning are and be proactive in improving your life. I am happy working with adults and couples as well as with children and adolescents and their families.

I offer the encouragement, assistance & support needed to cope with your troubles & to reach your full potential. Challenges often present themselves as a means to push us to grow, & to edge us out of our comfort zones. Change, whether self-initiated or encountered due to the inevitable ups & downs of life, can be a scary process. Resistance to these changes - & to the emotions that arise - can render us stuck, stagnant, depressed, anxious, frustrated & lost, among other things. Therapy is an opportunity to discover your true self, wants & needs, & to learn the necessary skills to create your desired life & experiences. I strive to create a unique relationship with each client, in which they feel free to be & express themselves. I value your individuality, creativity, & personal story. By encouraging you to uncover, feel & listen to the truth we all intuitively possess, you can understand how to trust yourself & make healthy decisions.

As a psychotherapist, I will help you tap into the wealth of your inner strength so that you can live life to its fullest.

Every day people ask us how we are. Most of us give reflex answers like ‘Not bad’ and bounce the question back. What if the question stayed with you? If you were being completely honest, how would you answer? How would you expect that the questioner would react? In an ideal world, how would you like them to be with you? When we are struggling with painful problems or keen to live a more enjoyable life it can be helpful to talk with someone who is empathic, knowledgeable, and skillful at facilitating change. This is what I offer. I am a UKCP registered psychotherapist with qualifications and experience in NLP, hypnotherapy, and contemporary shamanic approaches. I offer psychotherapy for individuals, couples, and businesses. Like all psychotherapists I am committed to: - Honouring the trust you place in me - Respecting your right to choose for yourself - Promoting your well-being (I am professionally supervised) - Avoiding causing you harm (I am insured) - Treating you fairly - And practicing what I preach by understanding and caring for myself Some of the things that make me different are: Some of the reasons you may choose to work with me are: - Sessions go deep - often resolving patterns that have been passed on through the family. - Sessions create rapid change - I coach clients to identify and confront their fears at a pace which is right for them. - Clients are treated as a team member rather than as a victim who needs saving. - Energetic rapport enables me to sense what is going on with their energy bodies. - 90 and 70 minute sessions are significantly longer than the standard 50 minute 'hour'. - I don't expect you to stick to a regular appointment time so you have more flexibility to choose when to come.

Founded on the principles of scientific research, and operated under the same model used by the Mayo Clinic, our unique model of having a multispecialty team of healthcare practitioners ensures the comprehensive and objective assessment of the patient and delivery of proven treatment protocols leading to positive patient outcomes. Merely offering hope to individuals and families is simply not adequate. All patients at the Portrait Health Centers are assigned a Patient Coordinator trained to act as a Patient Educator and Patient Advocate not only for the benefit of the patient but for the family, as well. Each patient’s coordinator fully explains each option available to them and assists in making the right decision as to the course of treatment. Because all medical specialties are located within the Portrait Health Centers, the Patient Coordinator can help arrange an appointment with any of the departments to insure organized and predictive care. The Portrait Health Centers provide a convenient source for all of the proven technologies and therapies for Depression, Nutritional needs, ADHD and other behavioral and learning disabilities.

Family transitions, loss and grief and personal journeys are all deeply intertwined. Each time there is a shift or change in the family, it deeply affects every member. Each individual has their own reaction and perceptions of the event, has their own grieving to do and will be changed in ways we often cannot predict. When you are experiencing transitions and changes in your life, which includes the death of a relationship or a person, it alters the course of your own personal journey through this world. I focus my practice on helping you learn to navigate these changes, explore the emotions that are connected to them for you, dig into old stories that may affect your perceptions, and support and guide you to being the brilliant and unique person you were born to be. My work centers around three basic concepts: 1. Every person is doing the best they can in any situation with the tools they believe are available to them; 2. The client is the ultimate expert on themselves; and 3. In community people find support and are exposed to different ideas and ways of being in the world and with each other. To support these ideas, I use an eclectic combination of modalities including humanistic, feminist, narrative, biopsychosocial, object relations (attachment) and mindfulness approaches. My style is strength-based, collaborative and interactive. I find that these techniques combined with a strong therapeutic relationship can be a recipe for success. I can work with you to better understand yourself and how you work. I believe that change can only occur if the client is dedicated to doing the necessary work; I am only a guide. I support the belief that all people should be able to benefit themselves through the therapeutic process. For this reason, I offer a sliding scale of fee to a limited number of clients. Unfortunately, I cannot take insurance, however can offer a receipt for you to submit to your insurance for reimbursement if you like. Finding the right counselor is an important part of the process. That is why our first thirty minute meeting is always complimentary. This meeting allows us to get to know each other, ask questions, and determine whether or not this is the right fit for you. In addition to in-person counseling, I offer online workshops as well as parent and life coaching via Skype. I also offer in-person workshops and support groups. To explore if my work could benefit you, your relationship or your family, I offer a free 30-minute in-person consultation. During this time we can briefly discuss what is motivating you to come into therapy, what you hope to gain by it, how I work and the philosophies that guide me in my practice and in working with others. To schedule, please call or email me I will return your call or email within 48-hours.
