My clients include children, adolescents and adults.
With 25 years of experience as a psychologist, I have found that the majority of clients would like to resolve their distressing problems as quickly as they can. I utilize short-term treatment approaches, because they have generally been demonstrated to be as effective as long-term treatment. The approaches I use include cognitive behavioral, solution-focused, and family systems treatments.
