I work with individual adults and with couples having some sort of difficulty. First, I need to find out about you and what's happening, then we will collaborate on a plan of how to empower you to improve dealing with the difficulty. Together we'll put the plan into action. With focus, motivated willingness to work and maybe to tolerate some distress, it's reasonable to anticipate positive change.

I use evidence-based practices, defined as "the integration of the best available scientific research from laboratory and field settings with clinical expertise so as to provide effective psychological services that are responsive to a patient's culture, preferences, and characteristics" (APA). The point is that treatment needs to work for you and I may use various theoretical techniques.
