Hello and welcome to my profile.
By now I would assume that you've read several profiles on the "Psychology Today" site and by this point they are probably all sounding astonishingly similar. That's got to be frustrating.
I hope that the following information concerning my practice doesn't have the same effect.
Let me be brief: I work with a multitude of issues and problems that relate to: couples, anxiety, depression and anger management. I also work with addictions including eating disorders. My approach can help you work through unconscious conflict (repeating patterns again and again without understanding why) as well as compulsive behaviors such as drinking, thought ruminating and habitual behaviors that are difficult to control.I can help you 'evolve' out of your particular problem. I am supportive and reality based while I can always find humor in the worst and the best of times. Together we can turn this all around and get you to where you want to be.

My diverse practice reflects and serves the needs of my neighborhood. My style of practice is interpersonal/humanistic meaning that I try to take an open-minded approach to psychotherapy. The work is an exploration of the nature of relationships and sources of anxiety leading to an understanding of the moment-to-moment experience of self and others. This understanding may lead to meaningful change and to the emergence of choices that were not previously considered. I am respectful of individual needs and differences and consider social & cultural influences. Please contact me via email: drscurtisatgmail.com.

I will teach you coping skills to deal with these unforeseen situations and even with those that are most anticipated. I subscribe to a proactive approach to therapy; focusing on the individual's strengths, without neglecting practical and real issues of human frailties.

In the super high-paced world we live in today, we all struggle with negative thoughts (about ourselves, our partners, our jobs, our future), high expectations (must do better!) and shortage of time and opportunities to unwind and connect (to ourselves and each other).
On top of that, most have to deal with the added strain of stressful jobs, family responsibilities and the ever shifting life circumstances.
The combined daily pressure of it all can lead to anxiety, relationship issues, lower self-esteem and shorter fuses.
