I'm an informal, low-keyed warm fuzzy type. I deal directly with problems, using CBT, emphasizing support/non-judgment.
I've completed 15 ebooks. The subjects are Assertiveness, How To Change Children's Behavior (Quickly), How to Assess and Treat ADHD (Children and Adults), Self Esteem, Why Relationships Fail, How to diagnose and Treat Anxiety, Anger Management, Types I and II,, Kids and Divorce, Child Visitation and Self-Esteem, How To Change Teenagers Behavior, The Psychology of Procrastination, The Psychology of Guilt, The Psychology of Forgiveness and Weight Loss (Free), The Psychology of All Addictions and How to Diagnose and Treat Mood Disorders.
My practice is filled with marital/relationship/employment problems. I am also a child psychologist, so I subspecialize in ADHD/learning disabilities. Anxiety, depression and Addiction issues are very common. All managed care programs are accepted, if that is best for the client.
Psychology Today email is sometimes not reliable. Call me at 760.746.8355 (for both offices). My website has directions that also work better: http://www.drgriggs.org/offices.html. I DO NOT open email about scheduling or billing or other personal information other than for initial contact through Psychology Today. (HIPAA regulations)
