My first process is creating a safe inviting environment where a client is free to be themselves and say what they need to say

Secondly, I want to communicate to the patient that they have gained an ally, who is on their side

First, I had a mother who taught me how to think, she taught me common sense, and critical thinking skills, she made it known to me  that,"everyone knows something I don't".  I grew up in New york City, where I had the oppoortunity to develop relationships with every culture, I raised my son on my own, so I know struggle, I then built on this foundation.  Earned a Masters degree in Mental health Counseling, I was trained under skilled Medical doctors, psychologists, and skilled experienced counselors, then for over 25 years I allowed my clients to teach me things I could never learn in school and continue to do so

I do hreceive have a standard, and yet I understand that everyone is different and in different circumstances, I do use insurance United healthcare, Cigna.  I am always flexable, lets negotiate 

My ex-wife was horribly abused as a child, for years I struggled, not understanding, not knowing how to help her.  It was an utterly helpless feeling, not being able to help someone I loved. I made my mission to develop the skills to provide help to people.  My ex-wife died at 40 years old, leaving five children behind, this made helping people a passion for me

I have had the privilege of worked with a wide variety of people, treated victims of sexual abuse, both men & woman; every culture, Jewish, Black, White, Hispanic, Asian, LBGTQ

Addiction, depression, Anxiety, Bi-polar, Marriage & family, relationship, pre-marital, fact is I enjoy the ability to never limit the people and persons I work with

My son told me that he is going to gaduate school to become a psychologist, he stated, "Dad after watching you help people for years, I want to do it too"

This field is directly impacted by a person's value and appreciation of people.  People who live through incredible circumstances and raise up to the challenge of investing in counseling, therapy, taking the time to look at painful things are people of tremedous courage, and are to be admired, find a therapist who thorough values and appreciates who you are and what your trying to accomplish 

Ask yourself:

1. Whats my goal? What do I want to accomplish?

2. What type of therapist do I need?

3. What obstacles do I face?

4. How bad do I want it?
