Congratulations on getting this far on your journey. I am going to entertain the idea that you are interested in changing aspects of yourself or your life so that you can move towards a personal goal, life satisfaction or general happiness. You have a child or teen you are worried about. We will work as a team and not keep anyone in therapy any longer than is necessary for the goal(s) to be realized. Please be advised that I expect challenging questions and hard work AND want you to want the same.
A conversation is the best way to gain insight into a therapeutic relationship. I invite you to reach out to me. On the aspect of psychological evaluations and testing; they can be threatening and often problematic as insurance will cover some parts but not others. We will negotiate a firm goal and make sure your questions are answered when we start.
I am working on the premise you want to be active in your own or your child’s treatment and be supported. I am more than willing to engage in that idea. We work as a team and will strive for satisfaction and change.

It is fun to think about the idea of age "blindness" in our society, and the reality is, there are sometimes less positive attributes projected as one ages. This is all to say, that I have walked around the block several times all by myself and crossed the street, as well.

While cognitive behavioral therapy is generally the 'go to', I do employ interventions such as EMDR and clinical hypnosis. What is most important, I believe, is a combination of support and discomfort. Change is never simple and ultimately, it seems, some level of that is what is needed for a more positive connection to self and others.
