My name is Dr. Scott, and I have been practicing for over 20 years as a clinical. Health, CAM, and Immigration specialist psychologist, and my highest degree earned is my Ph.D. (Doctor of Philosophy in Clinical Psychology), accompanied by a D.C.H. (Doctor of Clinical Hypnosis) and a doctorate level medical school education (M.D.). I have also studied many other fields. I start with CBT (Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy) in treatment and integrate many other empirically based treatment modalities as psychotherapy progresses.
I work 95% of the time out of my physical professional clinical office, quite a distance from where I live. My environment is peaceful, therapeutic, and relaxing, and I help create the environment for comfort and ease in building trust and unconditional acceptance in order to help bring about therapeutic change.
This is a fascinating field, and this is what motivated me to go into it. One of my functions is in psychotherapy and in-depth psychotherapy, which many times goes below the level of awareness or consciousness to help enact deep change, and it is an honor to serve those in need as a facilitator of this process.
