Dr. Goldwater is Licensed to provide psychological services in 39 States. My patients reach out to me when they feel a need to improve their performance in some aspects of their lives. They want to reach their potential and remove barriers to success. They often wish to reach the internal feeling of success. At times, self-doubt, self-criticism and, or other forms of self rejection, lead them to feel dissatisfied with actual success. In my work I help patients to learn skills to develop the ability to enjoy their success and improve their overall ability to reach important goals.

I ascribe to an integrative approach based on a strengths model of treatment. I aim to assist clients in overcoming challenges they may face by helping them identify and access personal strengths.

My approach draws from my training in family systems, cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, Accceptance & Commitment Therapy, & Dialectical Behavior Therapy.

I realize that for an individual to take the first steps toward looking inward at various psychological conflicts may be an anxiety-provoking process in and of itself, may even be a sense of relief, or a combination of the two.

I focus on providing a safe, trusting, and confidential environment in which one may gain insight and understanding and ultimately grow through this therapeutic relationship.
