Fradi Spilberg

The longer I practice as a therapist, the more I realize that the work rests not only on the knowledge we acquire about human psychology, but equally on our willingness to approach others with humility and compassion. In terms of my formal education, I graduated with a Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology from St Louis University. Most of my clients show signs of mood disorder, depression, anxiety, ADHD as well as Post Tramatic Stress Disorder. I have learned that while knowledge informs our work, it is the human relationship that gives it meaning.

My approach to therapy is eclectic, including CBT, depth therapy as well as a psychoanalytic approach.Over the years I have come to recognize that there is no ready-made formula for treating depression, anxiety of the effects of trauma. Each person brings a unique history, a particular set of circumstances, and an individual capacity for change.

On our first session, I try to learn as much as possible about each client, that includes their family of origin, the environment they grew up in and the events that brought then to their first session.
