My
practice is a very full, active practice with my clients experiencing
my enthusiasm for my work. I schedule clients Monday through Thursday
including two nights with late hours (5, 6 and 7 p.m.) and one morning
with early hours (8, 9 and 10 a.m.) to try to accommodate the varied
needs of families and individuals.
My clients range in age from about 8 years old to 80 (plus). Since I
have been in practice for over 20 years, I am honored to have individuals
who I saw, as children, a decade ago return to me with their own families.
A specific population that I have always enjoyed is adolescents, relating
well to both male and female teens.
My referrals come from physicians, school teachers and counselors, attorneys,
previous clients, other therapists, other clients, educators and ministers
of churches in the community.
I have an assistant who oversees my schedule, makes reminder calls,
administers new client intakes, handles all of my billing and client
accounts and basically assists me in every way to provide a professional
and caring private practice. I provide for urgent on-call services for
existing clients.
Being trained in Family Systems Theory, my expertise is working with
people within their family relationships. The clients I see are usually
struggling with family problems with at least one family member displaying
symptoms such as depression, anxiety, anger, defiance, addiction, disturbance
of conduct, physical complaints or work and academic inhibition. The
divorce and shared parenting process is a familiar part of my work.
I have a very interactive style. I prefer to include as many family
members in the therapy as is practical and naturally use a solution-focused
therapy model, designed with the “end in mind.”
Each session lasts
approximately 50 minutes. My fee is $115 per session. I do not accept
payment through insurance, but will assist you if you can arrange for
reimbursement.
