Welcome! As a Valley native, I have been in continuous private practice since 1982. I work with clients above the age of 12 (and younger children in family therapy). I specialize in resolving depression and anxiety, and tackling marital problems relating to infidelity, intimacy, child rearing, midlife crisis, and communicating. When a client is motivated, I find that short-term therapy is often sufficient, but I may see clients for longer periods when the problems are related to childhood wounds. I often use dream analysis to deepen our work, and draw on a client's spiritual life to help in resolving problems.
I work closely with several bilingual LPCs and LPC-Associates (whom I supervise) to provide a broad range of services through my practice. Please take a look at our website to see the individual pages of our associates.
You can make an appointment by going to our website at www.drscottsparrow.com where you will find a link to our client intake form. Please fill it out, and then you may call us with any questions. Our office manager, Julie, will help you sort out your insurance benefits, if any, and get scheduled for an appointment with myself or one of our associates.

I meet my clients where they are, without judgment or prescription, and endeavor to mobilize their own strengths in service of change. I draw from a variety of theoretical systems, using methods that are evidence-based and individually tailored. I believe that "people hurt people and people heal people," so I am always interested in how relationships contribute to the problem and the solutions.

Since I teach couples and family therapy, I explore your significant relationships, and will invite spouses and family members into the work if you agree. I also believe that "every psychological problem has a spiritual cure" (Carl Jung), so I'm interested in exploring dreams and spiritual practices as a source of healing. I see our relationship as collaborative journey toward your unique goals.
