WEEKEND AVAILABILITY!!! Making your decision to come to therapy is one of courage, especially if it is your first time seeking a therapist. My goal when meeting you is to help create a collaborative working relationship where you can understand yourself and what, if anything, you would like to change. I specialize in a variety of areas including depression, anxiety, sexual/pornography addiction, marital difficulties, life transitions, anger issues and more.

Do these statements resonate with you? You feel like you're treading water or drowning. The weight of the world feels so heavy that you can't leave your bed. You feel overwhelmed by difficult relationships. I have helped clients navigate these issues in the context of their anxiety and depression. I’ve also developed a passion for LGBTQ counseling and sex health. Perhaps you are on a gender or sexuality journey or you are curious in pursuing a certain lifestyle with your partner. Regardless of what brings you here, we will work together to draw the roadmap for your personal fulfillment, peace, and growth.

I believe my job as a therapist is to help individuals, parents or couples find "their owner's manual". My work must be diagnostic and strategic through a comprehensive understanding of the person, their situation and settings. I have a wide background as a therapist from settings in several different clinics that provides a layering of understanding. i.e. education, addiction, trauma, family therapy, and group treatment clinics. I also believe understanding culture is vital to effective treatment as well.

Thanks for taking the time to visit my listing. If you've come this far, you're on the brink of an important decision--and what a difference the right choice can make. As a therapist, I've made a difference in people's lives for nearly 20 years -- helping adults, teenagers, couples and families to overcome problems and gain emotional freedom. Everyone wants quick relief, and my clients tell me that one of the things they appreciate most is my ability to connect immediately, to get things rolling and create feelings of trust and hopefulness from the first session.

Therapy is a collaborative process. I understand there are many times in our lives when we need more support to help with a transition, a loss, a relationship, or a child. My approach is to assist you in gaining insight and awareness around issues that impact you in your life. I focus on the development of coping strategies, improving communication skills, and resolving conflict related to work, family, and in relationships. It is my belief that therapy in a safe, supportive, respectful environment can empower someone to find their voice and regain balance.

Making the decision to see a therapist is never easy and takes great courage. I try to provide a safe, trusting environment for adults who may be feeling overwhelmed, anxious and/or depressed. In my practice I use a supportive, solution-focused approach, which is practical and results oriented. I see therapy as a process for change rather than merely an exercise in insight.

Murray Kramer has been a holistic psychotherapist for over 30 years. He graduated with a B.A. in Psychology from City College of New York in 1967. He went on to study Folklore and Folklife at the University of Pennsylvania, and received an M.A. in 1970. He then became intensively involved Zen meditation, and was in residence in Zen centers for 17 years. His approach to working with children, adolescents, adults and families, is to start with where the individual is, and to bring to bear psychodynamic principles, within a supportive, open space encouraging insight and healing.

Trust and honesty are most important to me. I am trained in trauma focused cognitive behavior therapy (TF-CBT) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR). I work with teenagers and adults who are struggling with the stress of daily life, trauma, anxiety, and depression. I offer in person sessions for those who prefer it.

I provide therapeutic services and support to help individuals and partner(s) who are experiencing sexual concerns. Many issues can contribute to impaired sexual functioning and desire like anxiety, depression, anger, low self-esteem and unhappiness. Additionally, sexual concerns can also be the result of a medical condition, medications, stress or relationship difficulties. I specialize in helping people and partner(s) resolve their sexual concerns, along with other psychological issues, using a broad base of treatment approaches.

Taking time to invest in yourself is never easy. It takes a lot of courage. Maybe this is your first-time considering therapy or maybe you have attended therapy before. Family, work, school, relationships; all these areas can be impacted by symptoms of mental health. My goal as your therapist is to help you. We will utilize a variety of strategies and techniques from various counseling approaches to address issues. This process can be difficult, but it can also be extremely rewarding.

Therapy is a vessel for a client to reach and achieve their personal goals. I strongly believe that everyone has the ability to create, implement, and achieve their goals with the help and assistance of their therapist. I've worked in a variety of settings, including residential rehabilitation programs supporting individuals living with chronic mental illness, outpatient mental health clinics and social/emotional support groups for transition aged youth and young adults.

**** CURRENTLY ACCEPTING NEW TELE-SESSION CLIENTS**** We all have areas in our lives that cause us stress and worry. Sometimes people feel stuck in behaviors or situations.

I work collaboratively with clients to focus on the issues they find important.

Thank you for taking the time to take a deep breath and acknowledging that you would like to seek help for what is causing difficulty in your life at this moment. You have just taken a most courageous step. I would like to assist you in taking this all important first step by working with you to develop coping skills and strategies.

When every therapist's profile sounds almost exactly alike, how can you figure out who's right for you? I believe one way I differ from most therapists is the degree to which I'm paying attention to what's really going on inside you, below the surface. Below our thoughts are often strong emotions that don't simply change because we want them to. This is the work of therapy. Growth and change happen when we face and deeply listen to what our insides are trying to tell us, not deny or dismiss them and hope they go away.

You can do this! You can face this! You have the tools! I am here to help to carry this burden for a time while assisting you to identify and grow your tools and skills to become stronger, wiser, and more capable to pursue that which is good and true in life. Depression, anxiety, trauma, and numerous other internal and external barriers can seem overwhelming when trying to navigate daily life alone.
