​​My goal as a psychotherapist is to help you feel better as quickly as possible.  That is the reason why I utilize Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT).  CBT is a treatment approach that helps identify negative thoughts and behavior patterns, allowing us to explore the ways your emotions and thoughts can affect your actions. Once you notice these patterns, you can begin learning to “reframe” or “redirect” your thoughts in a more positive and helpful way.  Because this approach to therapy does not focus exclusively on your past, it does not take a long time to achieve positive results.  It is somewhat intense and relies on you working on your thoughts/feelings/behaviors outside of the office.

When answering the question of “What’s different,” it basically comes down to the therapists’ approach to providing the service of psychotherapy.  In simpler terms, you may view this as my capability to walk you through the dark/difficult place you may have found yourself in-and potentially bring you to a better place than you have been.   Almost 4 decades of experience working with thousands of people, probably not too different from you, permits me to do just that.

I screen prospective clients very carefully, and if I feel I cannot help you I will send you to someone who I believe can.  I generally as a rule do not work with people whom I feel won’t benefit from style of treatment.  My focus is on CHANGE, not repeatedly revisiting your past.
