About
Psychotherapy or counseling is a process of growth and problem solving. It is an effort that requires sincerity, hard work and commitment from the client(s) and the therapist. My commitment to you is to use my knowledge and skills to assist you in meeting your specific needs. Please take a look at my website for more information and feel free to give me a call. I am unique in that I am the one who answers the phone as I am a one-man operation. I will provide you with personal service. I look forward to hearing from you! CBT therapies are based on the premise that our thoughts, beliefs and values have a profound effect on how we feel and act; therefore, the main goal is to focus on those thoughts, beliefs and values that are not serving us well and re-evaluate them. I do offer pre-marital counseling. Any new or newly married couple is welcome, but I am specifically offering services for couples in which one or both has previously been married. The SYMBIS Assessment is being used. Please go to my website for link to learn more.
